It’s hard to deny that the last two X-Men movies really sparkled in the scenes that showed off the superpowers of Evan Peters’ Quicksilver. Unlike the X-Men characters who view their powers as a burden, Peters plays his Quicksilver as someone who absolutely loves that he can move ridiculously fast, and that joy came through in Days Of Future Past when he was messing with prison guards in slow-motion and in Apocalypse when he was saving a bunch of kids in increasingly elaborate ways. Now, with another X-Men movie—Dark Phoenix—on the horizon, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Peters will once again be stopping by for at least one really cool scene that makes everything else in the movie feel pretty boring in comparison.

For a film that was quietly nudged toward the sidelines as Deadpool 2 and Josh Boone’s New Mutants spinoff coalesced, X-Men: Dark Phoenix has now exploded into life, recruiting a host of familiar mutants and a director in Simon Kinberg, one of the many veterans of Fox’s grand cinematic franchise.
Set in the early 1990s, Dark Phoenix mines inspiration from the eponymous comic book by focusing on the young Jean Grey (Sophie Turner) who, after a brief spell in space, is overpowered by the titular cosmic entity. Since its inception, the Dark Phoenix saga has struck a chord with the X-Men faithful, so it’s small wonder why fans are beginning to look toward the film’s November 2018 release date with hushed excitement.
Not only that, but 20th Century Fox essentially put any and all rumors to bed a few weeks back by confirming that Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence...
