Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau react to and review The New Mutants (2020), the X-Men spinoff that blends superhero storytelling with psychological horror for a darker, more contained take on Marvel’s mutant universe. Directed by Josh Boone (The Fault in Our Stars, The Stand), the film follows a group of young mutants held in a mysterious facility where they must confront both their powers and their deepest fears. Blu Hunt (Another Life) stars as Dani Moonstar / Mirage, a girl whose arrival triggers terrifying manifestations tied to trauma. She’s joined by Maisie Williams (Game of Thrones, The Falling) as Rahne Sinclair / Wolfsbane, Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen’s Gambit, Furiosa) as the fan-favorite Illyana Rasputin / Magik, Charlie Heaton (Stranger Things, Shut In) as Sam Guthrie / Cannonball, and Henry Zaga (13 Reasons Why, Trinkets) as Roberto da Costa / Sunspot. The film is known for its eerie tone and standout horror-inspired sequences, including the haunting Slender Man-like Smiling Men, Illyana’s stepping discs and demon companion Lockheed, and the slow unraveling of the facility’s true purpose under Dr. Cecilia Reyes (Alice Braga — I Am Legend, Queen of the South). The story builds toward a climactic confrontation where Dani embraces her powers, facing the monstrous Demon Bear in a visually striking finale. With its mix of superhero origins and horror elements, The New Mutants offers a unique entry in the X-Men franchise, focusing more on character psychology and fear than traditional blockbuster spectacle. #NewMutants #XMen #Marvel #MarvelMovies #AnyaTaylorJoy #MaisieWilliams #XMenUniverse #MovieReaction #FilmReaction #SuperheroMovies #RoadToDoomsday #RoadToAvengersDoomsday #MovieCommentary #Commetnary #React #ReactTo #Reaction Follow *Greg Alba* https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ https://twitter.com/thegregalba Follow *Coy Jandreau* https://www.youtube.com/@CoyJandreau https://www.tiktok.com/@coyjandreau?lang=en https://www.instagram.com/coyjandreau/?hl=en https://twitter.com/CoyJandreau 0:00 Checking In! 01:41 New Mutants Reaction 44:28 New Mutants Commentary Commentary Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/prapermedia Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Movie Talk (News, Spoiler Reviews, & Film Rumors!!!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw8fPQ-21NVSb2IOwIiHbVt8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG Sketches & Short Films: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_zWuTRfBOUP3aYyIYRzc2y

As someone who feels like they are one of the 5 people in the world who loved this movie, I still agree with Tara where she said "this movie should have been an hour longer," I've never read the comics and I love these characters.

Even though it won’t happen, this cast deserved a better script and another shot. 😩

I recall this movie went through development hell. I remember the first trailer dropping in like 2017/18.

Magik should definitely be apart of the MCU. Anya was incredible, I love her

Maisie Williams is doing a rather convincing Scottish Highlands accent, not Irish.

I recall the hell this movie went through just for a release date: - Originally scheduled to be released in April 2018 - Delayed to February 2019 to avoid DEADPOOL 2 - Delayed to August 2019 to avoid DARK PHOENIX - Delayed to April 2020 because of the Disney/Fox merger - Delayed to August 2020 because of COVID-19 They said it was for the reshoots to make it more horror-driven, but those reshoots never happened. The movie was released as is. Interest started dwindling with each delay.

New Mutants was originally developed as a series. That's why it feels like it was.
