Delayed since 2018, maybe Not-So-New Mutants is a better name for this movie. Still, when New Mutants does come out (supposedly, this August) it will bring to life something you wont see in many other superhero films: a same-sex love story.

Though New Mutants is billed as a horror-thriller, the love story between superheroes Rahne Sinclair and Danielle Moonstar, played by Maisie Williams and Blu Hunt, respectively, is said to be the heart of the film . During the New Mutants panel from Comic-Con@Home on Thursday, Williams opened up about it.

It was really wonderful to be able to see a relationship look like this, the actor said. In the typically quite masculine world of superheroes, it was just lovely to see these two fragile women who just protect one another and bring light out in each other, but Im glad that the fans are so excited for it because I think its really important to see relationships like this.
