Movies like Dark Phoenix

Before Dark Phoenix, there was Apocalypse. X-Men: Apocalypse features the young mutants as they confront an ancient, powerful mutant intent on destruction, and it sets up the events leading into Dark Phoenix.

Although criticized by fans, X-Men: The Last Stand is the original film that tackles the Dark Phoenix saga with Famke Janssen as Jean Grey. Its themes of power and control echo in the 2019 remake.

Man of Steel offers a darker take on Superman's story, with themes of alienation and self-discovery that mirror Jean Grey's journey in Dark Phoenix. The movie presents a more human side to the superhero experience.

Similar to Dark Phoenix, Justice League brings together iconic characters to face a common enemy. With high-stakes action and the complexities of teamwork, it captures a similar ensemble superhero dynamic.

Captain Marvel features a powerful female lead struggling with her identity and incredible powers, much like Jean Grey in Dark Phoenix. The cosmic setting and involvement with extraterrestrial elements make it akin in tone and style.

Marvel's The Avengers is another ensemble superhero movie where the world's mightiest heroes come together to stop a global threat, offering the same mix of action, character dynamics, and stunning visuals as Dark Phoenix.
