Grab those Tamagotchis and crank up the pop music; 20th Century Fox is steering its flagship X-Men franchise toward the ’90s for the inevitable new movie.
That’s according to series producer Simon Kinberg, who revealed to Coming Soon that the studio’s next foray in the mutants universe would continue the streak from Bryan Singer’s prequel trilogy – First Class (1960s), Days of Future Past (1970s) followed up by this month’s X-Men: Apocalypse (1980s) – by taking place in a 90s setting. Could Kinberg be referring to Josh Boone’s New Mutants offshoot that is beginning to gain traction at Fox?
As a matter of fact, The Fault in Our Stars filmmaker recently took to Instagram to unveil what we assume to be the core lineup for his X-Men spinoff – Magik, Wolfsbane, Dani Moonstar, Cannonball, Sunspot, and Warlock – likely flanked by Alexandra Shipp’s mercurial Storm. »
