If you've never seen "Logan," watch that film before "Deadpool 2" otherwise it will spoil the ending. No year is revealed in "New Mutants"; however, it gives us a huge clue that it takes place in the future. An hour into the film, Dani gets a glimpse of a containment center where other young mutants are detained, including a shot of Dafne Keen's X who appeared in "Logan.
