Olivia Munn’s Psylocke rumoured to be returning for X-Men: Dark Phoenix

July 8, 2017 by Gary Collinson

It looks like we may be able to add another returning cast member to the roster for X-Men: Dark Phoenix, with rumours circulating that Olivia Munn could be reprising the role of Betsy Braddock / Psylocke from last year’s X-Men: Apocalypse.

According to Omega Underground, Munn arrived in Toronto this past Friday, where X-Men: Dark Phoenix is slated to begin production this month under director Simon Kinberg. That being said, it’s also been speculated that she could be in the city for reshoots on Shane Black’s The Predator, so with so little to go on, we’ll have to file this one firmly as a rumour until we get official confirmation.
