The rumour stated that the film had been removed from the Fox website. This removal was taken as sign that rumoured reshoots had been poorly received by studio execs.

A Fox spokesperson confirmed to CBR.com that X-Men: Dark Phoenix was never showcased on the site to begin with. The reason is…

I have a background in ballet, gymnastics and jiu jitsu, so I’m pretty talented. So I can fight and I have a super suit and I have wings.…
