The “Fifty Shades of Grey” phenomenon has crossed over into FOX’s “X-Men” franchise with a little help from fans.
The fan-made parody features footage of Jean Grey (Famake Janssen) and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) throughout their film history. Mix the steamy audio from the “Fifty Shades of Grey” trailer with clips from the “X-Men” movies and you get “Fifty Shades of Jean Grey.” Check out the parody in the video below. "Fifty Shades of Grey" opens in theaters on February 13, 2015.
In other “X-Men” news, writer Simon Kinberg recently made an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con 2014 to talk about the upcoming “X-Men: Apocalypse” film. Kinberg spoke to MTV about the “Four Horsemen” in the film, confirming the production has yet to announce who the men will be.
However, Kinberg added the “Days of Future Past” storyline allowed the production a larger character roster to choose from. Without giving away too many spoilers, the decisions made by the “X-Men” team in “Days of Future Past” have massive effects on the future.
“I would say in terms of making any character decisions on ‘Apocalypse’ is, we set back the clock on ‘Days of Future Past,’ so a lot could have changed from that point in 1973 forward, meaning people could have been born earlier,” Kinberg said. “The whole world changed after those events. Things that were represented even ‘X1’ and ‘X2’ and ‘X3’ wouldn’t have happened in quite the same way.”
There is a strong possibility some of your favorite “X-Men” characters could be coming back to life in the next film. “X-Men: Apocalypse” is slated to hit theaters on May 27, 2016.
