Le Journal de Montréal reports that the X-Men team will be returning to Montreal in November 2016 to prepare to shoot in 2017 for a film due out in summer 2018. It will be the third X-Men movie to shoot in the Canadian city after X-Men: Days of Future Past and X-Men: Apocalypse. The publication previously broke the news that X-Men: Apocalypse would be heading back to Montreal for reshoots this winter, with Hugh Jackman in tow.
That said, another X-Men movie would make sense, since it’ll be about two years since X-Men: Apocalypse. It’s unclear which cast members would return, but common sense suggests many of the “new” X-Men like Sophie Turner (Jean Grey), Tye Sheridan (Cyclops), Kodi Smit-McPhee (Nightcrawler), and Alexandra Shipp (Storm) will reunite for another round, along with, probably, James McAvoy as Professor X and Michael Fassbender as Magneto.
