The Long-Delayed X-Men: New Mutants Gets a Horrifying New Trailer and Release Date

Updated on 1/11/2020 at 4:15 PM

If it feels like it's been ages since we heard about Fox's horror installment for the long-running X-Men franchise, it has been. But now that a bit of time has passed since Disney's acquisition of 21st Century Fox, the ball is finally rolling on the original thriller, and fans have a brand new trailer to enjoy!

The new trailer for X-Men: The New Mutants is a perfect preview of how different the film is from the previously released X-Men films. Gone are the flashy X-Uniforms and hallowed halls of X-Mansion. In their place? Maisie Williams, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Stranger Things's Charlie Heaton running for their damn lives. The three, along with Henry Zaga and Blu Hunt, play a group of young, inexperienced mutants whose abilities are finally rising to the surface. Unfortunately, they're also being held in a top-secret facility against their will, and the only way to escape the horrors within might leave them even more scarred. Watch the horrifying trailer for the slasher-meets-X-Men flick above before the movie hits theaters on April 3.
