I did happen to notice the phoenix symbol, and that would suggest a phoenix is involved with the film. In fact, it's involved already. As a mere aesthetic. Surely there must be some reason or another for the symbol to be there since in no other part of the Fairy Tail mythos is such a symbol included. Yet you say with some level of certainty that, yes, it will be a plot device, regardless of importance. But will it really? Maybe, maybe not. There must be other details to support your claims. Some of which you may be withholding from the rest of us...or not...

It could just be the mark of a new rival guild, but considering it's a movie and Natsu is a Fire Wizard, the idea it has something to do with an actual phoenix has a damn good chance of being true.

The official website has been updated, the official title revealed:
Fairy Tail the Movie: The Phoenix Priestess (劇場版「FAIRY TAIL 鳳凰の巫女」) More info can be found here: http://fairytail-movie.com/news.html I couldn't get much of it, but apparently the main new character for this movie is named "Eclair". And here's a new poster image:

I don't think the movie will add to the main plot in the manga. At best, it may use, or better explain, some of the more secondary plot points or technical descriptions of the world. Most likely will be a stand-alone story.
Anyway, poster looks interesting. It makes it seem like there is some link between Eclair (the Phoenix Priestess?) and Lucy. Perhaps some connection to Layla or the spirit world? A Phoenix's element is traditionally fire, so with Natsu, I'm betting there will be fire vs. fire combat. Betting Natsu will power up to defeat the big baddie by eating the special Phoenix flames. So we get another one-shot power up for Natsu. Eclair's facial expression makes her appear a bit depressed about something, but also a bit angry, suggesting that she is either the main antagonist, or is assisting the main antagonist. But that she's ultimately a good person inside and is only doing it because she was hurt in some way. Lastly, I took the contents of that website and ran it through Google Translate: Spoiler for Google Translate:
Not too much detail, other than there is a conspiracy, and something about a "stone Phoenix." |

Well, long as they can make the movie fairly entertaining it should be fine. Never have too high expectations when it comes to plots for these kinds of movies. Of course if it can deliver on nice action and a solid plot I won't mind at all.
