Jennifer Lawrence's Mystique tries her best to get through to Jean who responds by sending her flying with a powerful blast.
Professor X (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender) are also unable to stop Jean, who is slowly losing her mind and turning into a powerful villain.
"I'm scared. When I lose control, bad things happen to people I love," Jean says.
Dark Phoenix, written and directed by X-Men franchise producer Simon Kinberg, is set to arrive in theaters on June 7. Cyclops (Tye Sheridan), Nicholas Hoult (Beast), Evan Peters (Quicksilver), Alexandra Shipp (Storm), Kodi Smit-McPhee (Nightcrawler) and Jessica Chastain, also star.
Dark Phoenix is based on the classic X-Men comic book series The Dark Phoenix Saga which involved Jean Grey inheriting the power of the Phoenix Force, making her more dangerous than ever before.
Chastain, who stars as a mysterious villain in the film who wants to harness Jean's power, discussed her role with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show on Wednesday.
"I get to beat up a lot of X-Men in the movie, maybe kill some," she said before premiering a clip of her character talking with Jean . "It's an intense movie, but we had fun."
