The trailer for Josh Boone’s The New Mutants has arrived and it’s taking the X-Men series into a very dark and very horror-driven direction!

The director previously told EW, “We are making a full-fledged horror movie set within the X-Men universe. There are no costumes. There are no supervillains. We’re trying to do something very, very different.”

Directed by Boone (The Fault in our Stars), the film will star Henry Zaga, Anya Taylor-Joy, Maisie Williams, Charlie Heaton, and Alice Braga.

The New Mutants will come to theaters on April 13th, 2018.

Synopsis:

Held in a secret facility against their will, five new mutants have to battle the dangers of their powers, as well as the sins of their past. They aren’t out to save the world — they’re just trying to save themselves.
