Empire Magazine shares via social media that “Magneto is having a bad day…” in their exclusive image for the upcoming X-Men film.
Set in the 1990s, a decade after the events of X-Men: Apocalypse, the film adapts “The Dark Phoenix Saga” comic storyline. Following Apocalypse’s defeat, the X-Men have become a household name and a public sensation. Professor X, with growing pride, encourages the team to do more as superheroes. Unfortunately, one mission takes them into space, and an unaccounted-for accident greatly empowers Jean Grey, but at the cost of losing control of herself and acting irrationally. All the while, an alien shapeshifter seeks to use Jean for her own intentions, believing her to be “the Phoenix”. –Wikipedia
