Marvels kommende reboot af X-Men står ikke til at udkomme, før Avengers: Secret Wars har rullet over biograflærredet i december 2027. Alligevel deler Marvel Studios-chefen Kevin Feige nu nye detaljer om projektet. Det rapporterer IGN.
Specifikt afslører Feige, at den kommende X-Men film vil være rettet mod et ungt publikum - et publikum som filmens instruktør, Jake Schreier, ifølge Feige excellerer i at ramme.
"Jake's an incredibly smart guy, and he's an incredibly talented filmmaker. We had a great experience with him on Thunderbolts, and if you saw that movie, what he did with those character interactions — he also has his pulse on, shall we say, a younger demographic," fortæller Kevin Feige.
"Not—he's younger than me, for sure—but he's tapped into that in a way that I think is important. It was important for Thunderbolts, much more important for X-Men, because X-Men, as it was in the comics, will be a very youth-oriented, focused and cast movie."
Manuskriptet til den kommende X-Men film bliver skrevet af Michael Lesslie, der tidligere har stået bag manuskriptet til YA-filmen Hunger Games.
