Speaking of The Tracking Board, they recently brought something up on who Jessica Chastain might be playing in 'Dark Phoenix'. Previously it was believed she was playing Lilandra, since it's adapting the Dark Phoenix saga and the Shi'ar might play a part of it.

But then it was rumored that there would be Skrulls in the movie (since Fox has the rights to them) and that Chastain is playing one, since her character is described as according to Wikipedia "an alien with shape-shifting abilities that manipulates the Phoenix, [who Chastain describes] as clinical".

But now, it's rumored she is actually playing Miss Sinister, essentially a gender-swapped Mister Sinister.

I have no idea if this is as a result of the reshoots relating to the rumors quickly followed by what is going around about 'The New Mutants', let alone if they are even true to begin with, but it does make it seem like it's a bit messy.

And if the thing with Skrulls were true, it would mean we would have 2 Marvel movies in the same period of time that would have Skrulls as antagonists. Kinda like how there were 2 Marvel movies with Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, except with less time in between, since 'Dark Phoenix' is now planned to come out 3 weeks before 'Captain Marvel'.
