Stardate 01.06.2020.D: Fox's 'The NEw Mutants' Arrive In April 2020!

For those of you who don't quite follow the trade papers on the entertainment industry, then here's my summation: the Walt Disney Company is well on the way to becoming the one-stop-shop for all of your genre needs.  Not all that long ago, they purchased 20th Century Fox -- a move I personally think was largely done to bring nearly all of the Marvel properties under a single roof -- and this means that the Mouse House definitely has its ears wrapped around much of Science Fiction and Fantasy.

However, this move also meant that some of Fox's work appeared to have been lost in the shuffle.  Projects that were completed were shelved for the time being as Disney's plans -- namely, their slate of upcoming Marvel projects -- needed to be examined against the greater tapestry of things to come.  For example, Fox's ongoing adventures in the X-Men universe established some box office clout, but these films had been definitely underperforming so far as bean counters were concerned.  Thus, The New Mutants -- a Fox film that went into post-production back in 2018 -- was promised but delayed ... until today.

It looks like Disney has finally slated this youth-centric Mutants flick into its Spring theatrical schedule, and the film will finally open in early April, 2020.

For those of you interested, I encourage you to check out the trailer below.  It 'feels' a bit like the other X-Men entries (or, maybe, the more recent ones), but the focus is on mutants just discovering their powers and the dangers they pose not only to the world at large but to themselves.  Who knows?  There may just be some new blood in thar hills ...

As always, thanks for reading ... and live long and prosper!
