DARK PHOENIX POSTERS, VIDEOS

20th Century Fox has released three new videos and a Dark Phoenix "inspired by" poster series, along with footage and exclusive interviews with X-Men past and present.

For "A Phoenix Will Rise" video, CLICK HERE.

Here's how Fox describes the movie:

"This is the story of one of the X-Men's most beloved characters, Jean Grey, as she evolves into the iconic Dark Phoenix. During a life-threatening rescue mission in space, Jean is hit by a cosmic force that transforms her into one of the most powerful mutants of all. Wrestling with this increasingly unstable power as well as her own personal demons, Jean spirals out of control, tearing the X-Men family apart and threatening to destroy the very fabric of our planet. The film is the most intense and emotional X-Men movie ever made. It is the culmination of 20 years of X-Men movies, as the family of mutants that we've come to know and love must face their most devastating enemy yet --- one of their own."

The movie was written and directed by Simon Kinberg. Producers are Kinberg, Hutch Parker, Lauren Shuler Donner and Todd Hallowell.

The cast featuresJames McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Alexandra Shipp, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Evan Peters and Jessica Chastain.

Here's how BOOM! describes the issue:

The reimagining of Joss Whedon's groundbreaking hit pop culture series kicks off a brand new story arc as Team Slayer deals with the devastating consequences of Xander becoming a vampire. Buffy and the Scooby Gang have lost one of their own to Team Vamp but what if there's a way to get their friend back? The Slayer will walk the line between responsibility and rampage as she searches for anything that'll bring back her friend, balancing her quest with her duties as the Slayer without losing anyone else in the process. What do you do when your entire purpose is killing vampires and your friend just turned into one?"

The issue is written by Jordie Bellaire, with art by David Lopez.
