The folks over at Latino Review seem to have stumbled upon the knowledge that Beast, a.k.a. Hank McCoy, will appear in the X-Men spin-off movie X-Men Origins: Magneto.
Like the currently-filming X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the flick will act as an origin story for Magneto and feature a young version of the character played by Ian McKellen in the three X-Men movies. Since it's a prequel, it's doubtful that Kelsey Grammer will reprise his role as Beast.
Wolverine will feature much more mutants than originally anticipated - including Sabertooth, Deadpool, and Gambit - so it looks like they may be following that formula with the Magneto film as well.
It's also been confirmed that they are looking into a third spin-off film featuring the younger members of the X-Men. |
