What it’s about
In a dark future where Sentinels hunt mutants and their human allies, Professor X and Magneto send Logan’s mind back to 1973 to unite their younger selves and stop the event that started it all.
The hinge. In 2023, Logan is sent back to 1973 and rewrites history, closing the original timeline and starting the revised one. It sits at its 2023 frame so the revised films can follow it. The Rogue Cut is the extended version.
