After two years of delays, 20th Century Fox released the trailer for the X-Men spinoff “The New Mutants.”Inspired by “The New Mutants” Marvel graphic novel published in 1982, director Josh Boone’s spinoff brings some horror into the X-Men universe.

It opens on Blu Hunt’s (“The Originals”) Danielle Moonstar sitting in darkness when a voice asks her, “What’s the last thing you remember, Dani?” Faces emerge from the darkness, there’s a scream, and Dani replies, “You said we had to run.”Then the action begins.The movie follows five young mutants, just as they’re discovering their powers, held against their will in a secret facility as they fight to escape.
