Jean Grey / Phoenix has had 3 different themes over the course of the 18 year X-Men franchise.

The first, appeared in X2 (2003), composed by John Ottman. It was a somewhat romantic, melodic theme that grew more and more powerful, occasionally even becoming dark. Just like the character of Jean in X2.


The second theme was heard in X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), composed by John Powell. This one was also melodic, romantic and had a middle-eastern style cue that could be played in a sweet, romantic way, or in a dark, evil way. I didn't use the darker versions of this theme in this suite, as this suite is to represent Jean Grey as Phoenix, not Dark Phoenix. I will be doing a Dark Phoenix version of this suite also.


The third version of Jean Grey's theme is heard in X-Men: Apocalypse (2016), again composed by John Ottman, who decided to write a new theme for the younger, more vulnerable version of Jean. The first 4 notes of Jean Grey's theme have a kind of western vibe to them. They are exactly the same as the first 4 notes of Ennio Morricone's 'The Ecstacy Of Gold'. This theme is played in soft, vulnerable ways or in strong, inspiring ways.


With the legendary Hans Zimmer composing the score for X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019), one can only imagine what kind of theme he will write for Jean Grey as Dark Phoenix. (If the film ever sees the light of day).

A Piece Of His Past - John Ottman
