Josh Boone turns in the second draft of his New Mutants script









Although a release date for 20th Century Fox‘s X-Men spinoff New Mutants has not yet been confirmed by the studio, director and co-writer Josh Boone today reminds us that the project is moving steadily forward. He posted to Instagram the cover page of his New Mutants script’s second draft and reports that it was delivered to producer Simon Kinberg. Co-scripted with Knate Gwaltney, the New Mutants script continues Fox’s X-Men universe with recent reports suggesting that X-Men: Apocalypse star Alexandra Shipp will reprise her role as Storm for a leading role. Also returning is said to be James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier, with new additions rumored in the form of Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams and The Witch star Anya Taylor-Joy as Wolfsbane and Magick, respectively.

Check out Josh Boone’s New Mutants script, complete with a stylish logo, in his original post below. As cool as that logo is, however, Boone reminds fans in the comments that they shouldn’t necessarily expect to see it used again as the project moves forward.

“[J]ust a draft cover we threw together,” he writes. “In no way official.”

New Mutants lineup revealed by director









Director Josh Boone is more handy with social media than most of his Hollywood counterparts, and the filmmaker has taken to Instagram to drop a big reveal for his upcoming New Mutants movie for 20th Century Fox, the New Mutants lineup.

Boone posted a number of images of the different team members, including: Magik, sister of Colossus and a powerful sorceress capable of teleporting; Wolfsbane, who can change into a Lycanthrope at will; Dani Moonstar aka Cheyenne/Mirage, who can visualize other’s thoughts, especially their fears; Cannonball, who can thrust himself and fly with an energy propulsion; Sunspot, who can absorb and channel solar radiation to both fly and create energy blasts; and Warlock,a techno-organic being capable of changing size and shapes.

Though it remains to be seen if he will appear in the film, Boone also made note of the tiny dragon Lockheed’s tail in one of the images, Lockheed being the alien-dragon companion of Kitty Pryde in the source material.

New Mutants cast adds newcomer Blu Hunt as Moonstar









According to Heat Vision, 20th Century Fox’s The New Mutants cast has added newcomer Blu Hunt (The Originals) to play Native American telepath Danielle Moonstar (a.k.a. “Psyche,” later “Mirage”). The studio is said to have made casting an authentic Native American in the part a priority, as Moonstar will apparently play a pivotal-if-not-central role in the plot, inspired by the “Demon Bear” arc in the comics.

Alice Braga in talks for New Mutants, Rosario Dawson exits









Despite an earlier report that she was in talks for a role, The Hollywood Reporter brings word that Rosario Dawson is no longer in talks for 20th Century Fox’s X-Men spin-off, The New Mutants.

In her place, the studio is now in negotiations with Alice Braga (Queen of the South, Predators, I Am Legend) for the role of Dr. Cecilia Reyes, described as “a medical doctor who has the ability to generate a protective bio-field around herself but also has more going on than she lets on.”
