X3 Casting

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is just the beginning - talk Marvel on the big screen, small screen and everything in between. DC Cinematic Universe and independent comic creations are welcome, too - The Walking Dead, Preacher, etc.

Well - I am glad that Beast and Kitty are getting a run in the new film, and I am happy that Colossus will return for another film, but am still very pissed about our Elf missing out (latest at Xverse still lists Nighty as not returning now matter how hard I wish it to be otherwise). :doh!

Looks to me like they are trying to get as many of the characters a run in the films as possible so that they can then merchandise the hell out of all the characters rather than just a core few.

I'll be sooooooo dissapointed if Nightcrawler doesn't come back in X3 :bawl
I think Ben Foster could be a good Angel.
At first I couldn't picture Kelsey Grammar as Beast .. at all. But now that I think about it his voice is PERFECT for Beast.

All I'm hoping for is some Nightcrawler action. :peek

I hope someone more informed can help me out here.

I thought it was long since confirmed Alan Cumming wouldn't be in X3. Now, a friend of mine assures me he's heard Nightcrawler was recast and will be in a few small X3 scenes. I hunted around on google and found plenty of information both confirming and denying this rumor.

Has anyone heard anything definative?

From what I've heard still, the best he's going to have is a brief cameo. He has no contract.

Quite a shame Nightcrawler only has a cameo. :o

I'm disappointed. If only Bryan Singer had signed up for X3...

Again! I SOOOOOOOOO agree! She was a nasty manipulative little b***h!

That whole tape of her jumping rope naked, OH Phuleeeze. Couldnt she get killed off so we never had to see her again. Plus her charecter seemed so like a fake thing to push the mature rating gimick.

Hopefuly this won't end up like the Fanatastic Four movie where they spent .99% of the time developing their
stories then one big fight scene with :doom and bam!!!! let's start working on the sequel.
I guess in some aspects X1 was sorta like this, but they're bringing in too many people and not concetrating on the main ones (besides Wolverine yes let him have it Kurt :poke) X3 will most likely do well but not as good as X2.

I don't think it'll be like Fantastic Four (a great movie, though the ending did piss me off).. rumor has it that Beast and Angel are to be introduced in the beginning, so that only leaves 27 more intros (I'm not sure if Kitty or Colossus will need too much introduction.. Juggernaut may not need too much.. the other villains were given little introductions..)

Oh GOD! NO!

Two of the most annoying female characters (in my opinion) have been confirmed:
"Two models have signed a deal with Marvel Entertainment to be in the X-men 3 movie...Their names are Ashley Hartman (tv's The OC) and Mercedes Scelba-Shorte (tv's America's Next Top Model). Ashley and Mercedes both have acting [and modeling] credits. Neither of them are just extra's either. Mercedes is playing a mutant simply known as M. Ashley is portraying Emma Frost. They both signed for roles in X-Men 3 directed by Brett Ratner."
There's in no way on FREAKING earth I'm seeing this thing now! I'm totally washing my hands of it!

Mercedes!!!!!! I love her!!!

*ANTM crazy fan here*

but I don't believe a word of any of this...there's no way they're just signing people on now, if the film is due to release in May.....and if they have a ANTM runner up playing the role, you know it's gonne be very very small....

I don't know... they've had a ton of setbacks with directors and such; it's just ridiculous how late they've pushed it. They didn't have a director or script for so long I don't even see how they could have done as much as they have now and I don't think the film will be released by its expected due date.

If it does, I wouldn't have high expectations. I'm not going to see it anyway, but there you go...

Emma Frost:

http://www.ashleyhartman.com/

I'd say thats pretty good casting...

And before we all get our panties in a bunch, I'm gonna say all these other mutants we're hearing about (M, Emma, Stacy X) will most likely be background characters, similar to how Siryn and Shadowcat were in the last one...

Maybe they’ll make an ‘in-training’/’going back to his circus movie-comic continuation’ excuse. Super lame. :yech

And Emma? STACY? Ugh… At least Beast sounds good. I might wind up going solely to see him, seeing as it’s going to be low on Elf. I can’t help wondering if it’s in part because on the work involved in Alan’s costume/make-up in the second movie. It (understandably) took hours to do each day, Alan is on the DVD special features as saying “never again” and “we must talk” to this get up.

With this in mind, does anyone happen to know yet whether Beast is getting blue fur or skin? :hank I’d really appreciate knowing, thanks.

Second cast question partly involves the X-Men 2 novelization. The book is by Chris Claremont, and in my mind puts the actual movie in the shade. For all you Kurt lovers reading this, Claremont worked on comic Kurt when he first joined the X-Men and so the Kurt in this is pretty much in character, if a little more on the religious side.

In this book, the background mutants who are mentioned briefly in the book include Henry McCoy, Kitty & Siren, Remy Lebeau and Elisabeth Braddock. It seems that back when it was published that these were 5 choices to have larger roles in the third movie, so even though the final 5 now includes Angel & Juggernaut instead, I was just wondering if anyone has heard of cameos by Remy and Elisabeth?

You might want to see the Beast pics thread for the answer.
