Jennifer Lawrence could have left the X-Men franchise after X-Men: Apocalypse. Her contract was up, and she wasn't obligated to return. But Lawrence chose to return anyway, for you, the fans, and for Mystique, the character.

Jennifer Lawrence Is Returning In X-Men: Dark Phoenix For Artistic Reasons

In an interview with Digital Spy, J-Law revealed her reasoning for returning for one more X-Flick.

"My contract was up, I didn't have to do another one, but if I didn't do another one, what would her story be? I felt like I owed it to the fans, and I owed it to the character to follow her journey, to be fair to the movies, and not be like, 'I don't want to do another X-Men!' And then I just never show up and everyone's very confused about the Mystique they've been following for the last three films."

If there's one thing that X-Men fans can't deal with, it's confusing storylines!

In all seriousness though, props to J-Law for taking comic book movies seriously. X-Men: Dark Phoenix may end up being as terrible as X-Men: Apocalypse was when it hits theaters in November 2018, but at least we'll know her heart was in the right place.

A prophecy once said that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero would come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events. Sadly, that prophecy was wrong. Oh, Jude Terror was right. For ten years. About everything. But nobody listened. And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
