hollywoodUpdated: Aug 28, 2020 14:16 ISTThree years after it was shot, the X-Men spin-off New Mutants was released to timid buzz and rotten reviews on Friday. There was a point during its production, however, that 20th Century Fox was so disappointed in the film that the studio was contemplating restarting from scratch. A report by Vulture takes us into the troubled production, which serves as the final X-Men film from Fox, after its takeover by Disney. “It was understood this was going to be X-Men at a price,” the report quotes a source as saying. “You could throw the movie out, start over, and it would still be the least expensive X-Men movie so far,” three sources recalled a high-ranking executive as saying.
