A new trailer for Dark Phoenix has arrived, giving us—and the X-Men—a peek into the destruction that results when Jean Grey (Sophie Turner) gives in to cosmic temptation and what we can only assume is a hell of a rush feeling the full extent of her godlike powers. But, in contrast with both Chris Claremont and John Byrne’s original Dark Phoenix storyline and 2006's X-Men: The Last Stand, here Jean’s evil awakening seems to be alien in origin.
Directed by Simon Kinberg, Dark Phoenix debuts in theaters on June 7.
