'The New Mutants' [2020] - C.E. Garcia, Mike Cuevas, and Ben Gonzalez.

After years of delays, reshoots that never happened, a release date shuffle that felt like a game of musical chairs, and a premiere that hit theaters with a thud, 'The New Mutants' became the last nail in the 20th Century Fox / X-Men universe coffin. In this episode, we break down what worked, what never stood a chance, and why this troubled production became a fittingly chaotic farewell to the Fox mutant saga. From the genre-bending horror ambitions of the director, to the last minute studio shuffle thanks to a legendary Stephen King property, we discuss just what put these mutants in more trouble than they could ever get out of onscreen.
