Empire Magazine caught up with Logan director James Mangold, and he revealed some pretty interesting details regarding a deleted scene that is about Jean Grey.

Possible Logan spoilers ahead

“I sketched out different conversations for that dinner scene and one of them went to a much darker place. Mrs Munson asks Logan if he’s married, and Charles says he was – but he killed her. Of course, he wasn’t really married, but what that then spawns is Charles waxing poetic about Jean Grey, and it’s a really cool moment. Both Hugh and Patrick were amazing. The problem was, it created an incredibly powerful lead brick in the middle of the only moment in the movie where there was a breather. Even I, with my taste for the dark, felt that it was one too many. Things go pretty shitty within seconds after that. I think [the deleted scene] will make it to the Blu-ray.”

When thinking about the scene’s place in the film, are you glad Mangold decided not to mention Grey? Why or why not? Comment below and let us know!
