The New Mutants: 10 Major New Details Revealed About The Marvel Movie

Despite those "Demon Bear" influences, very little is known about The New Mutants, and the plot for the movie has never even leaked online (likely because test screenings haven't ever taken place). However, thanks to star Blu Hunt - who plays Mirage - it's now been confirmed that her being captured and sent to this hospital is what kicks off the story of this team of heroes coming together.

"Dani is kind of the trigger of the plotline," the actress reveals. "I mean, she gets there and immediately suspects kind of something wrong. And her interactions with each of the other kids there causes them to become more self-reflective and, in turn, they become suspicious of what's going on there."

"She kind of triggers everyone to take a look at themselves and the place around them. Without Dani showing up there, I don't think that would have happened. I think they would have been as complacent as they had been, in the ways that they were," Hunt continues. "So, Dani really wakes everyone up."

That's definitely intriguing, but for co-star Anya Taylor Joy (who plays the little sister of X-Men character Colossus, Magik) just getting to suit up as a superhero in a project like this was an opportunity she relished. "The whole arm and the sword...yeah you feel pretty cool," she said during the movie's panel.
