X Men’s Sophie Turner reveals her bizarre drain ritual in our Ultimate Cast Quiz🤔

And it's quite strange...

Sophie Turner

X Men: Dark Phoenix and Game of Thrones' actress Sophie Turner has revealed she is afraid of drains. Yes, DRAINS.

Her revelation comes after we tested the X Men cast on how well they know each other.

When questioning the actors on who was scared of drains, Sophie initially said James McAvoy before hilariously realising it was in fact herself!

She said: "I'm not scared of them, I'm just very superstitious of walking over drains".

Jessica Chastain, who plays Margaret in the X Men hit, then poked fun at her, saying: "Do you mean like a drain like on the street like a sewer? Oh well, you are going to have fun watching IT!".

But, according to Sophie, who recently married Joe Jonas, there is a special spell to overcome the curse if she finds herself walking over a drain...

"You have to say onions to reverse the curse!", she excitedly said. We can't see the spell catching on any time soon!🤣

Toy Story 4

There were no dry eyes in the house at the end of Toy Story 3 - and whilst many were happy with how the trilogy finished, the new trailer has made fans realise that perhaps they do need another film in the series after all. Toy Story 4 will be released in the UK on 21st June 2019.

Avengers: Endgame

The second part to the finale of the Avengers film series will be released next year. Following on from Infinity War where half the population of the world has been wiped out by Thanos - including a LOT of our favourite Avengers - how on earth will our heroes conquer the evil genius? Avengers: Endgame will be released in UK cinemas on 26th April 2019.

Star Wars: Episode IX

There's also another major finale to a trilogy coming out next year in the form of Star Wars: Episode IX. After Rey was able to harness the Force, fans have been left wondering if they'll ever discover her true parentage - or whether she really is a nobody, as Kylo Ren said. It will be released on 20th December 2019.

Dumbo

Disney are not holding back with their plans to give most of their old classic films the live-action treatment after the success of films like The Jungle Book, and Dumbo is now in the works. The trailer on its own had viewers weeping, so it's most likely to be a huge tear-jerker when it's released in the UK on 29th March 2019.

The Lion King

Another Disney classic to be given a live-action makeover next year is The Lion King. Fans of the original were dubious over whether anything could compare to the 1994 animated film, but the star-studded voice cast has managed to turn people around. The Lion King will be released in the UK on 19th July 2019.

Although the child cast will still star, James McAvoy, Jessica Chastain and Bill Hader will take on the roles for the sequel. It: Chapter 2 will be released in the UK on 6th September 2019.

Aladdin

2019 is going to be a huge year for the Disney live-action remakes, as Aladdin is also set to be released. Directed by Guy Ritchie, fans of the original cannot wait to see Will Smith's take on the Genie after it was originated by the late, great Robin Williams. Aladdin will be released in the UK on 24th May 2019.

Frozen 2

The first Frozen film was one of the most popular children's films of the decade, so it's no surprise that a sequel has been in the works since its release in 2013. Bringing back Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel as sisters Anna and Elsa, Frozen 2 will be released in the UK on 22nd November 2019.

This wasn't the only amusing remark either.

Jessica Chastain revealed she didn't know what a magpie was, Sophie Turner thought Michael Fassbender was the world's faster pee-er' and Alexandra Shipp, who plays Storm, remarked James McAvoy identifies as an OTTER.

What a random bunch but VERY funny!
