The movie "X-Men: Dark Phoenix" will be released nationwide on June 6. Yesterday, film director and screenwriter Simon Ginberg and starring "Professor X" James McAvoy, "Magneto" Michael Fassbinder, "Phoenix Girl" Sophie Turner, "Quicksilver" Ivan Peters, "Laser Eye" Thiel Sheridan parachuted into the Beijing premiere scene to exchange shooting experiences with fans.

In X-Men: Dark Phoenix, the X-Men will face their toughest challenge to date. Set in the 1990s, Phoenix Woman Grey accidentally gains new powers, allowing her already extraordinarily powerful superpowers to be upgraded again, eventually blackening dark Phoenix to duel with the X-Men. As the last part of the "X-Men" series created by the same team, although the creators felt reluctant, they also said that "X-Men: Dark Phoenix" "is an end that meets everyone's expectations."

Director Simon: Dedicated his directorial debut to Dark Phoenix

Simon Ginberg has an indissoluble relationship with the X-Men series, having been involved as a producer since 2011's X-Men: First Battle, and the scripts for the two subsequent games in the series, X-Men: Reverse Future and X-Men: Apocalypse, were also written. Today, in addition to being a producer and screenwriter, he is also the director of X-Men: Dark Phoenix, which is also his directorial debut. Simon Ginberg said, "The Dark Phoenix incident has always been my favorite plot of all comic book stories. As a storyteller, picking up the guide one day has always been my ultimate goal, and if I want to direct a superhero movie, dark phoenix stories are definitely my first choice. ”

Based on the screenwriting experience of several X-Men movies, Simon's dark phoenix story is more grounded, more realistic, and has a sci-fi style, "because there is a force from the universe in Qin's body, and aliens and interstellar elements will also appear in the story." Simon revealed that he regained a plot line involved in X-Men: Battle of the Waters, "At that time, we did not let the Plot Line of Dark Phoenix become the center of the film, and I have always regretted that I did not tell this story well before, which is why I was passionate about shooting X-Men: Dark Phoenix and wanted to be the director myself." ”

As the last work of the series, the final ending touched the hearts of many fans. Simon refused to give more details: "When I wrote the script three years ago, I thought it was the most complicated X-Men story, and I will show how this big family that has been shaped for 20 years is facing disintegration." As the architect of the X-Men series, I certainly wanted to give this story a perfect ending. I'm not sure if it's the end, but it's the end of this phase, the end of the story we've created, the kind of end I'm looking for. ”

James McAvoy: Professor X became self-inflated

James McAvoy returned as Professor X. "I really enjoy the role," James says, "and I've always been very happy to be in the X-Men series, and I love the cast, including the creators behind the film, and we're like a big family that's been together from almost a decade ago and there's a great sense of belonging." Of course, this role also made me feel very belonging, and I wanted to push this role to do something else, so I decided to go back to this series. ”

In the new story, as the X-Men gain fame, Professor X becomes more and more self-inflated, and he has been suppressing this group of young mutants before, and the powerful power that Phoenix Woman accidentally gains has made him through the most difficult period. "The character's selflessness is a funny, engaging shining point. But in X-Men: First Battle, while not affecting the positioning of good and evil, we try to add a little bit of arrogance and narcissism to him. In the two subsequent X-Men films, this setting disappeared. We rediscovered that setting in this film, and I love that, and I'm happy to explore the error-prone side of him. ”

Michael Fassbinder: It's a pity not to play the "big villain" anymore

Michael Fassbinder, who has played Magneto since 2011, is equally excited about his return: "I love this film and I especially want to return to the series because it was directed by Simon. I want to help him as much as I can, he's a very good collaborator and the creator behind this series. He was a little "angry" that he was no longer the main villain in the film, "Honestly, I was a little jealous. Why is it someone else who is causing trouble this time? But in X-Men: Apocalypse, the title of grand villain was stolen once, and I'm getting used to it."

The emotional entanglement between Magneto and Professor X has always touched people's hearts, and Chinese movie fans have nicknamed the duo "Shark Beauty". Michael joked that he had heard the nickname: "For Magneto, Professor X is the best friend and probably the only friend, because other mutants think he has a sense of distance like a general." Although their goals are different, they support each other every time there is a crisis. ”

Playing Magneto four times has led to a deep empathy between Michael and the character, "I even want to buy my own island and live in isolation like Magneto". The experience of becoming Magneto is a fantastic memory for him, and as to whether he will star again, Michael said: "If there is a very interesting story in the future, I would like to read the script, but for now, I am very satisfied." ”

Sophie Turner: I didn't expect it to be my turn to pick the girder

Sophie Turner, the actress of Phoenix Actress Grey, said bluntly that she did not expect to be her turn to pick the beam, "I always felt that she was a supporting role of a group portrait nature, until six months before the start of "X-Men: Dark Phoenix" I did not know that I was sure to use Qin as the protagonist. Simon told me the plot and it got me really excited."

In X-Men: Dark Phoenix, Gin Grey's power will explode, even to the point of danger. Sophie said that the biggest challenge this time is the character's self-conflict, "she has a selfish side inside and wants to unleash the power of Dark Phoenix, but she also wants to protect her family, so she will have a lot of struggles". The setting of the character challenged Sophie's performance, "At first it was really laborious, and then I tried to portray the character in a different way. I realized that accepting my dark side is also a release for Chin, because the dark side is also a part of her."
