20th Century Fox has dropped a new trailer for their Super Hero\thriller movie "The New Mutants" and it doesn't look all that bad to be honest. 

The once TV series turned movie turned TV series and then back into a movie was in development hell for awhile. Originally pitched as a trilogy of movies suffered a lot of post production issues. Then with Disney's acquisition of Fox back in the middle of 2019, the fate of the movie was up in the air. We got a teaser trailer back in Oct of 2017, then nothing. 

But it looks like Disney is going through with the movie - after having influence slightly - and it doesn't look half bad. It's a new take on the whole Super Hero genre, a take that it honestly needs right now as - in this writers opinion - the whole thing was over-saturated with big block buster insane CGI effect super hero movies. This one seems to be really dark, which is exactly what Fox was aiming for. 

Loosely based on the comic of the same name by Chris Claremont and Bob Mcleod pits the would be super hero team, not in Xavier's School for the Gifted, but instead has them in an isolated hospital where the group of kids are being held for psychiatric monitoring.  

So far nothing is known on whether or not this ties into the X-Men universe or the MCU, and the trailer doesn't give any hints to either. 

You can watch the trailer right here below. 

Some speculation on my part. 

If this is based off of the comic, which it looks like it loosely is. The Russian girl, Illyana, is Magik AKA Illyanna Rasputina. She is the younger sister of the X-Man Colossus. Maybe this will dive further into an X-Men tie in? 

Who knows. It looks good though. 

The New Mutants is set to release on April 3, 2020 a full 2 years after its originally scheduled release date.
