Add 'X-Men' to the list of successful franchises with a movie coming out in 2019; this twelfth installment in the series reaches us on June 7th. 'Game of Thrones' actress Sophie Turner is in the lead role, which is a first for her on movie level, so she'll be hoping it's a great success!
Where this movie actually sits in the X-Men canon is a little unclear. It's actually a re-telling of the same story we've already seen in 2003's 'X2' but is also intended as a direct sequel to 2016's 'Apocalypse'. Apparently, the intention of writer and director Simon Kinburg is to give the Phoenix story the stage it deserves, having been disappointed with the last attempt, which eventually resulted in 2006's 'The Last Stand' being invalidated by 2014's 'Days of Future Past' and effectively erased from the 'X-Men' time-line. Will this be the film that repairs the franchise's shattered continuity?
