"The core idea of what X-Men is involves complexity. It's an incredible opportunity with super interesting characters and [much] internal conflict. These characters are wrestling with their identity and place in the world—that's inherently interesting and complex material." “When you go back and read those original comics, there’s ideology, but also interpersonal drama, almost of a soap opera quality.” “Having writers who understand both of those things and how to drive that ideology from more personal stakes… if we can get all of those things right, that's the thing that will feel most honest to what X-Men can be.” These are some words from director Jake Schreier and his vision for the new X-Men.
