There are rumours of Hulu picking up all of the cancelled Netflix shows. This could also work with the DarkerAndEdgier tones of the shows, making the New Mutants feel right at home!

Personally, I could see this happening. If the MCU is going to start out with the X-Men, it would be best for them to start small. There is also talk about the film being set in the 90s. In current day, mutants live in hiding to prevent the events of New Mutants happening again. After [[spoiler:Thanos' snap in ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'', the Mutants will no longer live in hiding and defend the Earth.]]

Maybe to strengthen its connection to the rest of the brand. It'll still be mostly a horror movie, but with a few more overt nods to the rest of the universe it's in.

This is how the Demon Bear will become powerful enough to threaten them despite it being vulnerable to their powers. Just like in the comics, it will draw power from negative emotions.

** The Demon Bear is already a shapeshifter itself. And what would make for a better face reveal in a horror movie? A redheaded guy in a tunic or a gigantic bear with claws bigger than a person?



** Exactly, why would they use that story as a base but change the Demon Bear into another villain who already has similar powers?




to:

* The threatening, callous Dr. Reyes is actually the Demon Bear taking her form to manipulate the New Mutants. The ''real'' Reyes is either another prisoner of the facility or a former employee who doesn't suspect that her identity has been stolen by another "person".

* It could be a "Belasco uses different illusory forms for each of the kids, and the bear is just what he uses for Dani" thing, but from the perspective of the guys handling press release info, there's really no reason they'd hide Belasco's identity, since he's not exactly popular enough that suddenly revealing him in the movie would be a dramatic twist.

* She'll have no connection to any of the New Mutants, X-Men, or X-23 kids, aside from being a fellow mutant. I mean, let's face it; if Rosario Dawson had been able to stay in the role as originally planned, no one would be assuming that she must be related to the other Latin American characters like Laura. If it was considered to have her character be that closely related to Laura or Sunspot, then Dawson would of never been set for the part in the first place (unless they tried to pull some really unconvincing FakeMixedRace).

[[WMG: Dani's Powers]]
All of the horrific imagery seen in the trailer will be revealed in the film to be a result of Dani's powers to manifest the fears of those she targets running out of control. This will serve as a RedHerring that will make the others doubt the existence of the Demon Bear.

Like Cassandra Nova, it appears to be going the "supernatural psychic astral entity" route. Maybe the term will be introduced as a word for evil spirit in certain local (fictional) indigenous peoples.

The plot's said to feature the team "escaping from a secret facility". This seems as good an explanation as any for what was happening at that facility. Perhaps he'll be Fox's answer to [[Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron the Vision]].
