Famke Janssen will rise again as the Dark Phoenix in X-Men 3.
Although Janssen's character Jean Grey sacrificed herself at the end of the second X-Men movie, the actress will return when Jean transforms into the Dark Phoenix.
Variety reports that Janssen has signed a deal to reprise her role, joining Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Patrick Stewart (Charles Xavier), Ian McKellen (Magneto) and Halle Berry (Storm) who are all expected to appear in the movie.
Shooting is planned to go ahead this summer with a slated release date of May 26, 2006.
