Poducer Simon Kinberg confirmed late last year that the reshoots still haven't happened, and according to a new update from THR, not only are the reshoots for New Mutants still not done four months later, but they are not even currently planned. The report does note that "things seem to be in the hands of Boone." It is unclear if that means it is either his decision to decide whether or not the reshoots happen, his job to figure out the schedule, or simply clarifying that he is still involved with the project at this stage.
There has been no signs of any of the cast or Boone returning to a New Mutants set for reshoots, so it isn't entirely surprising they haven't happened in secret. But, it is potentially major news if the reshoots are not even being planned to happen anymore. The reshoots were previously said to be so extensive that lame duck entry in the franchise and will just release what they previously had.
As a result of its troubling production, there have been plenty of rumors about how New Mutants will be released. Since Fox will soon be acquired by Disney, Marvel Studios will gain control of the X-Men and are expected to reboot them. Disney has confirmed they will actually be dumped to Hulu or Disney+. The former could be the better fit for New Mutants, especially if it winds up being R-rated or if Marvel and Disney want to release it before Disney+ is ready to launch. The ultimate fate of The New Mutants could entirely depend on if the film does go through reshoots or not, and since they aren't planned right now, the status of them is something to keep an eye on moving forward.
