X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019) and Fifty Shades Of Grey (2015)
In the new episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, a film that brought one saga to an end, and another that launched a new trilogy. X-Men: Dark Phoenix was supposed to right some earlier wrongs - but its ending got retooled in post-production, and it got caught up in Disney's takeover of Fox too. The creative control awarded to author E L James meanwhile created challenges on the film of Fifty Shades Of Grey - and it didn't help that one of its stars quit weeks before filming. Stories of both are told in this episode. Find Simon on Twitter at @simonbrew, and the podcast can be found at @filmstoriespod. Support our work at www.patreon.com/simonbrew. Hosted on Acast.
