Dark Phoenix runtime: How long is X Men Dark Phoenix? Full runtime REVEALED

Dark Phoenix seemed to be headed for trouble before it got off the ground. The X Men origin story’s trailers were met with mixed reviews from fans and critics alike. But as the release date draws near, X Men fans will be heading to the cinema regardless.

How long is Dark Phoenix?

X Men Dark Phoenix runs a quick one hour and 53 minutes.

The shorter runtime is atypical of superhero movies nowadays.

Marvel’s recent Avengers: Endgame surpassed the three-hour mark.

With such a quick runtime, fans are hoping for a tight and impactful film to tie up the Fox X Men saga.
