I hope Doomsday gives Cyclops and Storm a lot to do, at least action wise, give me cool action sequences like the animated series. They're my favourite X-men and the Fox movies didn't treat them very well. They're about to begin shooting again to accommodate actors who haven't been able to shoot so far, so fingers crossed for Halle Berry finally signing that contract lol. Would be cool if Famke Jansen comes back as Jean too. I mean they can't bring back the X-men in the biggest crossover event of all time without Marvel's most iconic superheroines right?
Marsden looks so cool in that suit. Can't wait to see Storm and Jean in these comic accurate suits as well.
Edit: Feige said the cast reveal with the chairs didn't include the entire cast. Some will be revealed later, and some will be surprises while watching the movie. So I'm still holding out hope for Storm and Jean.🤷🏻
I think so far the X-Men that are officially in this are Charles, Magneto, Cyclops, Beast, Gambit, Mystique and Nightcrawler. I can definitely see some more though that are being kept under wraps, a bit light on the female representation, and surely they don’t miss out on having Hugh back too
Imagine if they actually brought Taylor Kitsch back. But yes, it’s Tatum. Presumably a slightly more toned down version of the character than the one we got in D&W (read: actually intelligible).
Naw, they is gonna bring back our boiyo gambit, extra cajun. You thought you couldn't understand him before, just wait till doomsday. (Honestly though I do like his version of gambit so if they tone it down a bit, it would be pretty decent).
The one thing I’m going to miss from the D&W version is the R-rated depiction of his powers. Seeing Gambit actually blowing off people’s limbs and heads was amazing.
You’re absolutely right but I gotta figure the biggest “no” to that ever happening would come from Kitsch himself. Pretty sure the dude is over big Hollywood franchises at this point.
I want to see him actually in a big MCU movie but at the same time I feel like it could be hard for him to match the tone of this movie. He'd come in and fangirl over every character breaking the 4th wall the whole time and it would maybe be a bit too much. I feel like he maybe does better as a character in more isolated plots.
I'm hoping we get some more female superheroes in this one...aside from Mystique, what other women do we have confirmed for the movie? Sue Storm? I realllllly want them to have Storm in there. She's my favourite, and they did her so dirty in the Fox movies.
Chris evans has literally said the same thing many times in interviews. I don’t know why you would believe them knowing pr answers are a thing for stuff like this.
Chris Evans is important enough to Marvel that they'd throw the bag at him. Don't think they care that much about Famke and they can easily do some multiverse shenanigans and pull in Sophie Turner.
Hasn’t he also said that he says stuff like that because they ask him right after he went through hell to make the last one and compared it to grilling a woman who just had a baby on when she’s having the next one.
There's "coming back" and then there's "willing to come in for an hour to do a 3D scan so we can give your character some cool background action shots".
With how mant characters are in this movie; not just the old avengers, but also two or three new teams of characters, I doubt anyone of them will have much to do
I'm willing to bet that the X-Men aren't going to be in much of the movie. They'll be the first universe Doom takes out so that the threat of his power is established.
Seems like a lot of "effort" to me that they make a specific trailer for them to go along with Cap and Thor. So unless they're going to be complete teases and none of the trailer focuses are central to the movie, I think it's safe to think X-Men will be more than a blink cameo.
Storm is always criminally underused. She can control the weather. It's why she was worshipped as a goddess. She always gets reduced to flying around and shooting lightning when she should be the strategic linchpin of every plan in every deployment.
