EdgarusQPFC Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) Made my day mate Confirmed cast from IMDB as of today Jennifer Lawrence - Raven / Mystique Peter Dinklage Nicholas Hoult - Hank McCoy / Beast Michael Fassbender - Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto Hugh Jackman - Logan / Wolverine Ellen Page - Kitty Pryde / Shadowcat James McAvoy - Charles Xavier Ian McKellen - Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto - older Evan Peters - Pietro Maximoff / Quicksilver Anna Paquin - Marie / Rogue Halle Berry - Ororo Munroe / Storm Patrick Stewart - Professor Charles Xavier Daniel Cudmore - Piotr Rasputin / Colossus Booboo Stewart - James Proudstar / Warpath Shawn Ashmore - Bobby Drake / Iceman Bingbing Fan - Clarice Ferguson / Blink Omar Sy - Bishop (rumored) Adan Canto - Sunspot Thats a great cast so far, Even bringing the lesser characters like Iceman/Colossus back with the original actors. Hell they have even been able to pull Anna Paquin off True Blood long enough to join the cast, judging by The Last Stand it seemed her character arc was finished. Hopefully this will be the film that really brings X-Men back, the last few films have been great in my opinion, but it seems all the other Marvel franchises have been more sucessful. The 3 Iron Man films have made $500 Million more than the 5 X-Men films, the Avengers only made around $300 Million less than all 5 of them. But this has always been my favorite Marvel franchise since i was a kid, id love to see eventual crossovers with the other Marvel franchises, i mean who wouldnt love to see like Wolverine/Spiderman or X-Men/Fantastic 4.

Im glad they are introducing more characters tho gutted they made such an arse of Gambit in Origins so cant rehash him and there is no Nightcrawler :-( Glad Beast is back tho shame they dont have "older" Beast as much as Last Stand was brutual I thought Beast was done well Cross overs will always be a bit of a difficult one to judge, obviously Avengers was kinda a cross over and worked well but its a hard task incorporating everything into one universe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even think Hugh Jack man is perfect for Wolverine. Casting in the series has mostly been excellent.

I would fucking love a crossover, thats like a dream of mine and it would be brilliant but unfortunately I can't see it happening to soon:/! The problem with different companies owning different franchises is that their so stubborn that they wouldn't want too do 'business' with rival companies! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forehead7 Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) Well then, if this is true, we might as well all kill ourselves right now? Why? I'd love to see someone else get the role. Wolverine doesn't need to be a big muscleman like Jackman is, in the comics I'm fairly sure he's like 5"5 or something like that. Certainly not the 6"2 that Jackman is. He can be a small scrapper type who's just ferocious. edit: I should say, I like Jackman in the role. The above probably comes across as quite negative, I'm just saying that you could recast and it still be great. You'd have to take it in a different direction. I'd like to see a lot grittier Wolverine. I can't see them ever making a Wolverine film that's a 15 or an 18, sadly. Similar with Batman. They're both too mainstream and the studios realise they can make them 12A and get all those ticket sales.

Perhaps this is why Peter Dinklage has been cast, I mean how badass a Wolverine would he make??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 The problem you have is there has been so much focus on Wolverine as a character, he has had 2 seperate spin of movies and always seems to be the main focus of the main xmen films. Im hoping when days of future passed is done the focus is shifted another character/characters. If the role is recast agreed that it should be a grittier version of him, more the angry, secluded, tortured soul that people remember him as. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they should do what the Avengers are probably gonna do with Iron Man. Don't try to milk it too much, have him show up occasionally in the future but let other characters carry the burden. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly Avengers was well balanced out with all the characters and although certain performances (Downey Jnr and Ruffollo) stood out there was no main focus on particular characters. There will be more than enough storyline for the new film without them getting distracted by Wolverine, if Trask is indeed involved the hopefully some big ass battles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree in some ways, I would also love to see a darker Wolverine but I really can't see that happening, they would lose so many child fans and they wouldn't risk that:/! I understand where you're coming from though, but I think Jackman is really good in the role and I would find it weird if someone else was playing wolverine! Maybe a few years down the line! But I think you have a fair argument/opnion on your hands! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Pie & Bovril mobile app 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Everyone's favourite actor Vin Diesel is set for a starring role in either Guardians of the Galaxy or Avengers 2 Any thoughts on who he could be? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always thought, especially when the first FF movie was being cast that he would have made an excellent Thing/Ben Grimm!!! His superb acting range would obviously bring the depth and vision that such an emotionally complex character requires in order to be portrayed convincingly!!! Also I really think he sounds like the Thing should sound!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I thought he was going the role of 'Wooden Muscular Tough Guy', the same guy he's played in all his films. I have to admit to quite liking him in both Riddick films mind. Was disappointed that he never received the Rock Bottom or People's Elbow in the ludicrous Fast And Furious films. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have made a brilliant Anakin Skywalker. Wooden, musclebound, tall - everything Lucas wanted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
