According to the editor in chief of The Tracking Board, Jeff Sneider, both X-Men: Dark Phoenix and The New Mutants have been pushed back.

X-men: Dark Phoenix, which is about Jean Grey as she begins to develop incredible powers that corrupt and turn her into a, you guessed it, Dark Phoenix, was slated to be released November 2, 2018. Now, if Jeff Sneider's tweet is to be believed, this date has been pushed all the way back to Valentine's Day 2019.

The New Mutants, which is about five young mutants discovering their abilities while being held in a secret facility against their will, fighting to escape their pasts and save themselves, starring Maisie Williams (Arya Stark, with her "sister" Sophie "Sansa Stark" Turner starring as Jean Grey in X-men: Dark Phoenix), was slated for release on February 22, 2019, but has now been postponed to August 2, 2019.

No explanation has been given for the new dates, but we'd speculate that The New Mutants has been moved back to make way for Dark Pheonix, though why that movie was pushed back remains unclear.
