The DarkPhoenix filmmaker Simon Kinberg on its box office failure: 'That's on me'
in January, a number of men accused the filmmaker of having sex with them when they were underage. Singer had departed the X-Men franchise several years before theexposé was published, but Kinberg was asked if reports of Singer's alleged misconduct had hit his radar and if he simply decided it wasn't his business back then.
"Not my business. Not something that I saw on set or in the workplace. Otherwise I would have felt like it was my business," said Kinberg. "Those movies were complicated to make. They were oftentimes hard to make and oftentimes — this is not to excuse any behavior — sometimes they were really good., the first X-Men movie I made with Bryan as a director, is my favorite of the X-Men movies, certainly that I've made.
"I love these characters. I love these world. I'll be super excited to see what Marvel does with them," said Kinberg.
