Well roumors are abound about the next X-men movie, according to AIC news the new mutants will be Beast, gambit and Angel.  However Angel will be a female.

Also Juggernot is supposed to be the new villian.

Any idea when it's supposed to be coming out?

[Spriggan]

nope, is supposed to start filming this year but there isn't even a script yet.

I'm all over Beast and Gambit and Juggernaut.
Though I wonder what they think Gambit can possibly do to Juggernaut.I'm not sure how I feel about Angel as a girl. I suspect I'm not bothered at all since they didn't do the  Scott/Beast/Angel meet Jean as teenagers and flip out plot.

Anyway, Beast and Gambit are the two I've wanted since the first film. I haven't complained because the movies have been so good.

[Tekiel]

Yay!  I too have been waiting for Gambit.  I hope they get someone who can do his accent, though.  As for Angel being a girl . . . I probably won't mind since I don't know that much about Angel anyways.

[Fellfrosch]

I just don't think Marvel can decide what they want to do with Angel--he has wings, then they cut them off, then they bring them back in techno form, then he goes insane, then he's good again, now he's a girl.... Just make up your minds, Marvel.

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

yeah, the big things... who cares? I mean, if there's a character I've paid less attention to than The Submariner....

[House of Mustard]

I've never liked Gambit.  He doesn't seem to fit.

That's all I have to say.

/me cuts Hom in the gut with a homemade shiv.

Well, the filmakers have disputed that Angel will be a woman.

I say they should just cast Orlando Bloom as Angel, that way you don't know if it is a man or a woman.

I've also heard a confirmation that Famke Janssen will be back. I wonder if she is coming back as Jean Grey, Phoenix, or Madelyne Pryor?

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

or d, all of the above.

[Fellfrosch]

They already had Hank McCoy in a brief cameo in #2, but I don't know who the actor is or if they'll use him again. Who would you cast as Beast, Gambit, and Angel (as a man or woman, and not counting Orlando Bloom, who is neither).

[Mistress of Darkness]

Beast = Keith David

This would make the movie worth a CA ticket price to see it in the theatres.

[Fellfrosch]

I don't really see that.

[Archon]

*Archon wonders whether there is such thing as a commercially made shiv*

I've also heard a confirmation that Famke Janssen will be back. I wonder if she is coming back as Jean Grey, Phoenix, or Madelyne Pryor?

Who is Madelyne Pryor? I recognize the other two, and my bet would be that she comes back as Phoenix for at least part of the movie. After all, in the end of the second movie, you saw the outline beneath the water that looked like a firebird.

Though I wonder what they think Gambit can possibly do to Juggernaut.

Well, to be fair, Juggernaut is hard to stop for anyone. And, if I were Gambit, I would just charge up his entire suit.

There are a couple mutants that really make me hope that they continue the series long enough for me to see them. Cable would be a really cool one, in my opinion. It would be cool to see how they would portray Havok too. Anyone else have people they are waiting to see?
