Don’t plan on this Marvel character rising from the ashes in the future. The Phoenix Force, inhabiting the body of Jean Grey, the possessed X-Men original member portrayed by Famke Janssen during the days of 20th Century Fox, appears to be gone for good — or at least Janssen’s version most certainly is and, if so, some cinematic canon with it.Despite Janssen winning awards for her efforts in bringing Jean Grey, and eventually Phoenix, to the cinematic masses, the actress has now made it clear Marvel has “never, never ever” asked her to reprise the role for the MCU, via an interview with Entertainment Weekly, and that’s despite several of her original X-Men castmates having signed on for Avengers: Doomsday — Kelsey Grammar (Beast), James Marsden (her primary love interest, Cyclops), Alan Cumming (Nightcrawler) and Sir Patrick Stewart (Professor Charles Xavier). In the cataclysmic scene during X-Men: The Last Stand, the world saw Jannsen’s Phoenix make everyone who had the misfortune of thinking they could challenge her and Magneto disintegrate into flakes (yes, she was Thanos roughly 12 years before Thanos), turning the entire city into a hellscape with her rage. The healing properties of Wolverine made him invulnerable to her attempts to tear him apart at that atomic level though, albeit an extremely painful process to keep regenerating with every step he took toward her.
