- Dark Phoenix: Michael Fassbender & James McAvoy Interview
With writer-director Simon Kinberg’s Dark Phoenix opening in theaters this weekend, I recently sat down with Michael Fassbender & James McAvoy to talk about the film. Since I knew going in that I didn’t want to ask questions that would spoil the movie, I decided to have some fun and ask a number of fan-submitted questions that I got on Twitter and also talk about the Game of Thrones finale which had aired a few nights before. Thankfully, they were both in a great mood and willing to play along. Some of the others things they talked about were each of their favorite performances by the other person, which movie they have watched the most, if they have any sort of pre-shooting ritual, what it was like working with Simon Kinberg, and more. If you’re a fan of Fassbender & McAvoy, I’m confident you’ll enjoy this one.
As most of you know, Dark Phoenix is most likely the last X-Men film with the current cast and adapts the famous "Dark Phoenix Saga" comics arc, with Sophie Turner filling the role of Jean Grey/Dark Phoenix while Jessica Chastain plays a mysterious and otherworldly character. The film also sees Michael Fassbender return as Magneto alongside Storm (Alexandra Shipp), Red Lotus (Andrew Stehlin), Beast (Nicholas Hoult), Nightcrawler (Kodi Smit-McPhee), and Selene (Kota Eberhardt). Main players Charles Xavier (McAvoy), Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Quicksilver (Evan Peters), and Cyclops (Tye Sheridan) return.
Check out what they had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about followed by the official synopsis.
Michael Fassbender & James McAvoy:
Did they see the Game of Thrones finale and what did they think?
What was it like working with Simon Kinberg?
Does Fassbender have a favorite McAvoy performance and does McAvoy have a favorite Fassbender performance?
When is Fassbender coming back to work? Mentions he might do Wild Bunch but is definitely doing Kung Fury this summer.
Do they have any sort of pre-shooting ritual?
What movie have they watched the most?
Here’s the Dark Phoenix official synopsis:
This is the story of one of the X-Men’s most beloved characters, Jean Grey, as she evolves into the iconic DARK PHOENIX. During a life-threatening rescue mission in space, Jean is hit by a cosmic force that transforms her into one of the most powerful mutants of all. Wrestling with this increasingly unstable power as well as her own personal demons, Jean spirals out of control, tearing the X-Men family apart and threatening to destroy the very fabric of our planet. The film is the most intense and emotional X-Men movie ever made. It is the culmination of 20 years of X-Men movies, as the family of mutants that we’ve come to know and love must face their most devastating enemy yet - one of their own.

"What did you think about GOT finale, James?"
"........ Sophie's amazing in it."
I honestly dont care how the movie rates, just to see these 2 together again on screen is just amazing.
I will watch it just for them man
Same
James: I'm young, I'm talented, I'm beautiful, and I have a secret
Michael: I'm angry, I'm a mutant, and I have a secret
****WE USED TO DO THAT IN FIRST CLASS****
Just when I thought they're joking lol
Haha James throwing shade on the GOT writing by saying "there were great ACTION episodes..." I love him
These guys make these X-Men worth watching
James deserved an Oscar for Split and I will stand by that for the rest of my days
I love them and appreciate them so much as actors. Both so insanely talented... and have great chemistry!! Definitely both Fassbender and McAvoy are top of the list of my favorite actors ever!
Pretty sure Shameless if a long running British comedy. I watched 10-12 episodes, James was only there first season. Free on Prime, at least it was last summer.
I have a thing about Fassbender, just got into him. McAvoy totally awesome. I watched his SNL appearance, he wore a kilt, was funny, Think it was on youtube TV at that time (they are going to hell now, charging for lots of movies I am dying to see including 2 X-man movies!!!!!
The best thing about the X men movies was the professor Xaviers and the Magnetos. All 4 of them!!!
I just love how Michael was in a movie called Shame and James was in a movie called Shameless....But I have to say, I really hopethat if the MCU decides to integrate Xmen into the upcoming movies, that James and Michael will reprise their roles. I became a fan of them both as a result of their portrayals of Prof. X and Magneto. They made the movies for me.
Shameless was a TV show, not a movie.
The only thing that'll really, genuinely upset me about Disney rebooting X-Men into the MCU is that these two incredibly talented guys won't retain their roles.
There’s plenty of other talented actors who’s every bit good if not better than those two. They can be recast.
@@alexh4319 exactly!!
agree. james and michael together in one movie is the best thing about x-men
@@alexh4319 you shut the front door right now. No one, is better than these two.
alexh4319 don’t really think they were saying that there aren’t good actors out there that can’t play the role as good as them. I think they were trying to say that now that we have associated these characters with these two it’s gonna be hard to picture anyone else playing Charles and Erik.
Always interesting to hear talented actors who can mimic accents so well, speak in their natural voices
Best question of this interview : *Michael when are you coming back to work ?*
Fassbender watches The Shield, this man truly is incredible.
These guys are so fun together. Great job, Frosty.
Good god I miss Fassbender doing movies!! He needs to get back at it, he is so talented!
Did he quit???
@@dirty06maggot He has been racing cars professionally the last couple of years instead of acting.
Love the chemistry between Michael and James. You can tell that they genuinely admire each other and are great friends.
Goddamn I'll miss these two. I wish they were able to keeo playing their characters. They did an amazing job.
I am just like Michael..watch when everyone forgets
awesome interview! they have such an amazing friendship! gonna really miss them as Charles and Erik!
These guys are the best.
The character development in this movie is like 10/10, every line & scene was very captivating that i can't even take my eyes of the screen!
Great ACTORS they made the X MEN FANTASTIC ALONG WITH JENNIFER!😉☺
I am just like fassbender when it comes to GOT
Loved Fassbender’s scene in Inglourious basterds. The German three lol
Michael Fasbender. The next 007?
This interview must have been a blast, thanks!
Love these two. Great interview Frosty!
Fletch is one of my all time favorite movies; I still watch it on the regular to this day. I also love Fletch Lives. Comedy perfection.
their accent when they're acting and when they're talking in real life is SO much different
wow the background or his jacket really brings out james' eyes lol
first question: what do you think of game of thrones?
evidence that the interviewer wants to avoid asking about the movie because critics didn't like it
they were like oh you have to go? thats cute
i’m gonna miss them so much :((((
Love fastbender
I'M ANGRY I AM A MUTANT I HAVE A SECRET LMFAOO
I’m happy for their friendship and chemistry but also sad they were contractually obligated to make this movie.
They weren't contractually obligated. They were only signed on, as with Jennifer Lawrence, for 3 films only: First Class, Days of Future Past, and Apocalypse. They came back BECAUSE Jennifer Lawrence convinced the studio to let Simon Kingberg direct..which was a mistake. A BIG mistake.
👍
@@tangled55 Totally agreed.
The characters behave way off their characteristics and the story line lacks novelty. It's adorable how these two actors try to make it sound good by adding meaning to the movie.
Only good thing is that it's very character driven and lack of the costume but could have done a better job.
Love this guys
Frosty is legit one of the best interviewers in the game.
lol no
yessss
Cool guys.Good interview.
Both of these old men are so freaking adorable
No one:
Not a single soul:
James: Sophie is FuKiN amazing
#CHERIKFOREVER
5:14 there's Dennis! The horde is taking over!
Yes James your Amazing.
I'm going to miss these two.
#Xmen
also anyone know what that ype III jacket is james mcavoy is wearing?
Brilliant film split and 12 years a slave is hard to watch but again powerful acting 😊
The first movie I ever saw Michael in was 12 years a Slave and I didn't even realize it till months later when I heard he played in the film. I did a double take when I saw that. His acting is insane! (In a good way)
My favorite scene of x men is wolverine and magneto on the airplane!! Wolverine tells magneto hes a survivor and how hes spent years trying to take him down ! Magneto says , HOW'S THAT WORKIN FOR YA!😄 , THEN WOLVERINE IS PISSED SO HE SAYS YA WANNA PICK UP ALL THAT SHIT YOU MADE A MESS OF??"😄
Why do I feel like I saw this interview a while ago?
felt the same
McBender
This is the first time I've watch interview of Fassbender and I think he has Irish accent.
Yes he's Irish.
6:00 Michael i cant 🤣🤣
Did anyone else actually really enjoy 'The Last Stand'?
I see what you did there McAvoy, you only mentioned the things that you liked about the end of Game of Thrones. Because we both know everything else is shit!
Yes, James’ most memorable performance: two minutes of emotions then dying in a ditch
Also “Band of Brothers: a lotta guys in green”
So michael did "shame" and james did "shamesless" 😀😀
Is this the channel that used to be Collider quick
Yep
Yeah, Darkphoenix is Jean Grey movie so, the directer wants to focus on her character, that’s what I think is the best about this movie. However, Xmen working together is great too.
Kung Fury. Cant wait
Why dark phoenix.... I hope MCU give this duo spaces in avengers.
I read Fassavoy.
Oh shit.
TOP GUN YASSSSS
Gonna miss michael's magneto :(
It’s the annunaki bloodline
Kung Fury?! Holy...
5:11 *I'm young I'm talented I'm beautiful and I have a secret*
I like how McAvoy dodges the Game of thrones question with ,, Sophie is great '' and ,, The action is amazing '' but doesn't say anything of the plot. Sneaky lad
GOONIES NEVER SAY DIE.
And you've got to fart😂😂😂
Ok grant are you listening to her are you ready to support us
I have a secret lol
James still sounds like a little boy.
Nope.
dnt change the a actors pls
Shame and Shameless
Glad to know I wasn't the only one who caught that! XD
these two are
...
Having two gay crushes at once.
I've gotta go....I've got a million other things....as if he's doing th actors a favor by taking time out to ask questions. LOLLLL
He meant he has a million other things to ask them but he ran out of time
Fassbender should have a haircut
Creepy ass dude with his black nail polish always freaks me out
the line: "there's always a speech.." it's so stupid, nobody talks like that, and also it's not true
