New Mutants post-credits scene: why we didn’t get one and what we got instead
A post-credits scene was planned accordingꦚ to the New Mutants 🍒director

Is there a New Mutants post-credits scene? If you’re venturing out to cinemas over the coming days, it’s something you’re bound to ask. After all, it is a Marvel movie (originally under the Fox umbrella) and after-credit teases aღre a dime a dozen nowadays, be it set-ups for sequels or just a fun little sting🌳er to send everyone home happy.
But, sorry to disappoint: there is no New Mutants post-credits scene or after-credits scene. There is, however, a nice nod to the comics that can be found during the credits should you🐈 want to stay in your seat before making a socially-distanced exit.
“We had [comic artist] Bill Sienkiewicz… and he did illustrations of everybody for the end credits. So, like when it says Anya Taylor-Joy, Bill did a brand-new thing behind her. So, you'll see a bunch of his artwork sort of represented during the end titles.”Sienkiewicz was instrumental in the success of early New Mutants work, providing art for the series throughou🦋t the mid-‘80sꦍ. For those who have stuck with the series that long, it’s a touching tribute to someone who helped make the series popular enough to even be made into a movie in the first place.
Interestingly, a New Mutants post-credits scene actually was planned but scrapped once it was clear the franchis🐲e had no sequel in the works
“I can'꧑t give you a post-credit scene because I had to scrap it because then it would entail that there was another movie,” Boone said.
So, no post-credits – and probably no immediate future for New Muta♎nts – but there’s plenty of reason to stick aroun🅰d once the credits start rolling.
