History
Jean was a mutant and the X-Men's doctor. Since childhood, Jean had powers that were beyond all known limitations. Fearing that Jean could not control her vast powers, Charles Xavier put psychic blocks around her subconscious mind to keep Jean's powers at bay. As a result while growing up, Jean developed a dual personality - one being her usual self and the other her powerful and uninhibited side which called itself the Phoenix, which emerged when she was angry.X-Men
She was involved in a long-term relationship with Cyclops. A love triangle developed between her, Cyclops, and Wolverine. She fought Toad at Liberty Island, only to get her face coated in a layer of his slime-spit. However in the process of rescuing Rogue at Liberty Island to stop Magneto from using the Mutation Device to mutate the UN leaders, the energy source from the Mutation Device somehow triggered her senses as she felt something strange within her begining to rise.
X2: X-Men United
Jean became concerned over her experiences and frequent bad dreams and headaches. Her powers had been increasing. Jean began to exhibit Phoenix-like powers as she used her telekinesis to deflect the missiles fired at the X-Men while trying to escape the Us Air Force. Her eyes glowed fiery red as she successfully destroyed one missile. In another incident, while fighting Cyclops (who was under William Stryker's control) she was able to telekinetically shield her herself from Cyclops' optic blast before dispersing it and shattering the energy about, causing it to destroy the dam's structural integrity. After the destruction in Alkali Lake, Jean sacrificed herself to save her teammates from the ruptured dam. Her power reached to the maximum level as she sent the inoperative X-Jet away, telepathically canceled Nightcrawler's teleportation to prevent him from rescuing her, as she momentarily held back the resulting tidal wave that eventually claimed her mortal body. At that point, Jean was engulfed by fire, as she closed her eyes and let the water crash onto her.X-Men: The Last Stand
Jean's death severely affected Cyclops, who had frequent nightmares of her. He returned to Alkali Lake, where he angrily released the full force of his optic blasts into the waters, only to cause Jean Grey to rise from the water, alive. They began to kiss and she insisted that he remove his glasses as she was able to control his powers, but then apparently killed him by atomizing him with her telekinesis.Unconscious, she was taken back to the mansion by Storm and Wolverine. Jean's Dark Phoenix powers began to manifest as she used her telekinesis to attack Xavier. She disintegrated Xavier and joined Magneto's Brotherhood. Upon attacking Alcatraz Island, Jean, in her Dark Phoenix form, unleashed her armageddon-like fury and destroyed much of Worthington labs, the X-Jet, and killed both mutants and humans along the way. Wolverine told Storm to get everyone to safety while he stayed behind, as he was the only one who could stop her due to his healing factor. He managed to get Jean, who burned through his skin multiple times, to re-surface long enough to plead for him to stop her from causing any more harm. Wolverine expressed his love for Jean, and then stabbed her with his claws.
Her gravestone was set next to Cyclops' and Xavier's.
