Last year’s newest entry in the X-Men movie franchise set up a time frame, and new set of heroes and actors playing them, to be able to deal with stories inspired from the Marvel Comics series’ generally agreed-upon most creative dramatic streak. James McAvoy continues to play the “new” Charles Xavier, and Sophie Turner from Game of Thrones plays Jean Grey, whose transition to cosmic darkness will be explored in the next film in the franchise, the already announced X-Men: Dark Phoenix.
