Up to this point the X-Men films have mainly been about the grown ups: both in the actors cast, the themes it addresses and the overwhelming amount of in-jokes and references to the fifty-odd years of comic history that would totally go over the heads of the younger members of the audiences. New Mutants probably wont be that. Classically, the comic book series have always been about the younger members of Xaviers School For The Gifted. At that point its assumed that the adult X-Men know what theyre doing, and so the attention for training, schooling and the like is shifted onto the kids. Which will be why they hired Josh Boone to direct it. The man behind the camera of The Fault In Our Stars is definitely a good call in the sense of all the teenage drama that is as integral to the comics as superheroics, with hormones flaring with greater intensity even than the love triangle between Wolverine, Cyclops and Jean Grey. Expect as much smooching behind the bike sheds as SFX-lead action scenes.
