Now I haven’t seen X-MEN: APOCALYPSE, but if reviews were any indication, it sucked pretty hard. BUT I’m still curious… but, nevermind all that, one thing is for sure is that fans are definitely wondering where the franchise might go next.\u00a0<\/p>\n

io9<\/a> <\/strong>reported last year that FOX is scrambling to reboot the franchise. Which makes sense, since that, their MARVEL movies have definitely been hit or miss, especially with the X movies.<\/p>\n

Though it seems like FOX is planning a lot of spin-offs to build on their mutant franchise, with NEW MUTANTS, X-FORCE, and GAMBIT in development… and of course, we can’t forget DEADPOOL 2, and also LOGAN about to come out, but the flagship series does need a little help.<\/p>\n

But now it seems like a new rumor has surfaced. MovieWeb<\/a><\/strong> is citing that production listing went up with a new movie titled, X-MEN: SUPERNOVA, on that list.<\/p>\n

It seems like this has fans abuzz with the possibility FOX will reboot the Dark Phoenix storyline. Fans of the movies will remember that FOX kind of did a hatchet job on the Dark Phoenix storyline over X-2: X-MEN UNITED & and the God awful X-MEN: THE LAST STAND (Grrrrrrr Brett Ratner!!!).<\/p>\n

But with DAYS OF FUTURE PAST essentially hitting reset button on the movie timeline, it’s anyone’s guess.<\/p>\n

And if you’re wondering why “supernova” might fuel this speculation? Well, if you’re not familiar with the original comic story, it’s a completely valid line to draw. But I won’t go too far into that, I mean, SPOILERS!<\/p>\n

But for me the real questions are:<\/p>\n
