“After I made ‘The Fault in Our Stars,’ we made Fox a comic book,” he continued. “It walked them through a trilogy of ‘New Mutant’ films that would build on each other. We used this program called Comic Life, and took all the images we had loved from the series and strung them together to show them the movie we wanted to do. We brought it to Simon [Kinberg, X-Men franchise producer] and he really liked it. We’ve been going for the past year and a half to get it ready, and I’m about to go location scout and we have a release date now.”
