THE NEW MUTANTS: Surprise Comic-Con@Home Panel Announced Along With An Action-Packed Sneak Peek
The New Mutants is now scheduled to be part of next week's Comic-Con@Home, and we have more details on that - along with an action-packed new sneak peek - for you to take a look at after the jump...
Disney has announced that a special ComicCon@Home panel featuring The New Mutants writer/director Josh Boone and cast members Maisie Williams, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Heaton, Alice Braga, Blu Hunt, and Henry Zaga (moderated by Ira Madison III) will debut on July 23rd, 2020.
The Marvel movie is a surprise last-minute addition to the virtual event, and with a current release date of August 28th later this year, it looks like Disney is going to be giving it a serious push from here.
It's no secret that The New Mutants has been hit by multiple days both before and since the Disney/Fox merger, but there's a lot of intrigue surrounding the project, especially as it's Fox's final X-Men movie before Marvel Studios reboots the characters for the Marvel Cinematic Universe,
Will the New Mutants manage to avoid the axe? Depending how fans respond to the the movie, it's certainly possible, and it's hard not to start getting excited about the prospect after watching this new preview:
