X-Men: Dark Phoenix - 21 Easter Eggs & References Explained

15. Match

At one point after Jean has been empowered, we see the youngsters of the Xavier School all enjoying some underage drinking despite the fact that their headmaster is a psychic and they're all being monitored constantly by Mystique and Beast. Apparently, nobody cares about them breaking the law with their naughty punch. Or maybe the youngsters aren't drinking? Yeah, right.

Anyway, in the background of that scene, we see a young black mutant - played by Lamar Johnson - who lights a bonfire. You could be forgiven for thinking that he's a new version of Pyro, but he's actually playing Ben Hammil, otherwise known as Match.

In the comics, Match was the leader of mutant team the Paragons and in a pleasant nod to Dark Phoenix, he's got anger issues.
