X-Men: Dark Ph0enix' Scheduled for THREE MONTHS of Reshoots

If you were one of those Marvel fans worried that*'*now that 20th Century Fox was acquired by Disney - breathe easy. It's been revealed that*X-Men: Dark Ph0enix*is not only still being released, but is heading back to Quebec, Canada, for three months of reshoots!

LaPresse.Ca*has an article about how Quebec is about to reach a milestone number of film productions being hosted in the Canadian province, and in the breakdown of the films currently (or about to be) shooting in the area, we get the following reveal about*X-Men: Dark Ph0enix*(tr@nslated from French and corrected for grammatical errors):

"A surprise makes possible this new record of foreign shootings: the additional scenes of the film*X-Men: Dark Ph0enix. Initially,*X-Men*thought they would have to spend two weeks in Montreal to finish the film shot in the metropolis last summer. However, the team of X-Men will turn rather three months. 'They are returning [to shoot] the last part of the film. It's a nice surprise,' says Pierre Moreau.

The stars of X-Men - Jennifer Lawrence and Michael Fassbender are in the credits of the film - will settle [for] three months in Montreal. Filming will take place in MTL Grandé studios rather than in MELS Studios, where X-Men is shooting. The MELS studios, owned by Quebecor, were already reserved for another production. This situation shows the advantages for Montreal of having a second major shooting location. MTL Grandé opened in early 2017.

'It's a good thing we have two studios. We would not have been able to accommodate [additional scenes of X-Men] without this additional ability. Americans like to be in a market where there are at least two big players.'"

So there you have it: it sounds like*Dark Ph0enix*will be reshooting the climax of the film, which could be a good sign that Fox wants to invest in a truly epic ending to the film; or, it could be a sign that*Dark Ph0enix*will follow in the footsteps of*su1cide Squad*or*Justice League, with a big altered final act that feels half-cooked and disappointing.

It's been a very twisted road that Fox's current (and final) crop of X-Men films has had to travel. Both*The New Mutants*and*X-Men: Dark Ph0enix*were knocked out of their original 2018 release slots, in order for Fox to "tweak" the films in order to enhance aspects that tested well. However, since that decision*Disney acquired 20th Century Fox's assets*- including the entire X-Men franchise. Now anticipation has turned towards having the X-Men finally incorporated into Marvel Cinematic Universe, making*Dark Ph0enix*and*New Mutants*strange epilogues to a dying franchise. And so, for all the delays and new expenses in reshoots, there's still big question as to whether or not any of it will prove to be worthwhile.

We'll find out when*X-Men: Dark Ph0enix*hits theaters on February 14, 2019.*The New Mutants*will follow on August 2, 2019.
