At a Dragon Con(thanks Betty) in Atlanta on Saturday, Patrick Stewart answered questions on whether we would be seeing him in future X movies, or maybe in the reinvented Star Trek movie series.

As we know, Stewart recently appeared as a younger Xavier in X Men Origins : Wolverine but he seems to be interested in appearing in future mutant centric movies in the future. While working on an adaptation of Waiting For Godot with Ian McKellen, he says the two of them agreed that they would love to further explore the relationship between Magneto and Xavier.

Asked about Star Trek he said he thought the new movie was "terrific", but that he did not see a large role for Jean Luc-Picard to play in the movies rebooted timeline. He did say he would do a cameo in a future movie.

Thanks to Worstpreviews for the info.

luecypher - 9/7/2009, 5:52 PM
the only good thing in wolverine was patrick. Wouldn't mind seeing him return.
ThisFan - 9/7/2009, 5:52 PM
he did a great job
Betty - 9/7/2009, 6:13 PM
It's not just a convention Ror, it's D-ragoncon! (Dragoncon) You have to go at least once in your life. Or once and a half... or 13
undeadpool - 9/7/2009, 6:14 PM
He is our Xavier now and should be until he is much too old.
Hawksblueyes - 9/7/2009, 6:23 PM
I find it extremely cool that he would enjoy this role as much as he seems to. He is a Shakespearian actor ,and he has no shortage of roles. For him to take as much of an interest in the role really gives the comic book movie concept more weight and credibility in my opinion.
davidzuck - 9/7/2009, 6:24 PM
awesome dude, he was perfect as Xavier, and I'd love to see him reprise that role
LEEE777 - 9/7/2009, 6:25 PM
Cool, lets hope its X4 X5 X6 and not a FIRST CLASS BORIGINS 90210 spin off! ; D

Wait a minute, why the [frick] did they change actors in X3 if he still wants to do X-movies???? : /
GUNSMITH - 9/7/2009, 6:28 PM
PATRICK IS XAVIER! I'D BE PISSED OFF IF ANYONE ELSE PLAYED PROFFESOR X
KillerOfSaints - 9/7/2009, 6:28 PM
He needs to bang Lilandra!!!!!
GUNSMITH - 9/7/2009, 6:30 PM
THEY NEED TO STOP MAKING THE DANG SPIN OFFS AND JUST GET BACK TO X4..BRING ON APOCOLYPSE AND A GOOD DAMN DIRECTOR,,ZACK SNYDER!
RorMachine - 9/7/2009, 6:30 PM
What do u mean Leee? Stewart was in X3!

Betty did they mean Dragon Con? God damn Worst Previews!;) haha. Ill edit that forthwith.
jallanr - 9/7/2009, 6:38 PM
im glad to hear he wants to return in any future x-films. hes a great actor. and if anybody heard the commentary for x-3, the coma guy is actually xaviers twin brother, so ya, he can return

woo hoo!
Osiris - 9/7/2009, 6:42 PM
Patrick Stewart is the best part about all of the X-films and it just wouldn't be the same without him involved in someway.
mobile1ph - 9/7/2009, 6:47 PM
I'm definitely for Stewart getting a cameo in a future Star Trek movie
CaptainCanada - 9/7/2009, 6:53 PM
there is no one better then him to play prof X
GUNSMITH - 9/7/2009, 6:56 PM
THEYRE DOING FIRST CLASS TO GET THE TYPE OF APPEAL TWIGHLIGHT IS GETTING.
NERO - 9/7/2009, 6:57 PM
@ osiris "coma guy" was Xavier's brother wasn't he? Perhapse HIS TWIN BROTHER!!! DUMP-DUMP-DUM!!! Seriously though, I've got no freakin' idea.
jallanr - 9/7/2009, 7:07 PM
i already mentioned, the coma guy IS his twin brother, they stated it in the commentary

woo hoo!
StephenStrange - 9/7/2009, 7:10 PM
well, that's good because they can now bring him back in.
But then again X3 could have been just a little less lame also
flames809 - 9/7/2009, 7:15 PM
i would love to see him in every single x men solo movie they are going to make or if they going to do x men 4
AvengingAngel1022 - 9/7/2009, 7:18 PM
cool
ASSASSIN666 - 9/7/2009, 7:23 PM
Bring on X-4, and for Christ sake get a good writer, good directer, and bring on Bolivar Trask and the Sentinels. Perfect time to make the gov.t the new enemy focus, and get Michael Clarke Duncan to play Apocalypse
Joe6Pack74 - 9/7/2009, 7:31 PM
I would love an X4 w/Stewart. They could come up with some BS mutant or convenient plot line to resurrect him. They do it all the time in the comics. When I was a kid I wrote him requesting an autograph when they started Next Gen. He was the only one to actually write a personalized letter and sign it along with a picture. Very nice actor and loves his fans.
LexLuthor - 9/7/2009, 7:36 PM
They should bring back both Xavier and Summers... damn Jean and her killing spree.
BryEL - 9/7/2009, 7:36 PM
Come on, seeing him in Wolverine was a joke to me, sure you gotta do it some how, but people were laughing in the theater when they saw 'young' Xavier.
ComradeX - 9/7/2009, 7:40 PM
Xavier has the power to make everyone see him as he once was,only magneto would see him as the guy at the end of X3
superdog - 9/7/2009, 7:47 PM
more PS in future x-men movies?..........make it so!!!
ASSASSIN666 - 9/7/2009, 7:47 PM
Xavier was alive at the end of X-3, look for the scene after the credits. He transported his conscience into the body of his twin brother who was the man in the hospital shown earlier in the movie
Marvel Rules - 9/7/2009, 7:55 PM
sweeeet he is the best star to play xavier
GUNSMITH - 9/7/2009, 7:58 PM
ID LIKE TO SEE RAZE FROM UNDERWORLD MOVIES PLAY APOCOLYPSE
xXkryptoniteXx - 9/7/2009, 8:03 PM

GUNSMITH - 9/7/2009, 8:21 PM
HEHE I JUST SAW WOLVERINE VS HULK ON YOUTUBE, THEY USED STOP ANIMATION AND THE HULK WAS THE GREY ONE..PRETTY SICK.
GUNSMITH - 9/7/2009, 8:23 PM
ON YOUTUBE ITS UNDER "WOLVERINE VS THE INCREDIBLE HULK" UPLOADED BY SOLIDLIZARD
Christuffer - 9/7/2009, 8:40 PM
nobody else could be xavier. not even christopher walken lol
InTylerWeTrust - 9/7/2009, 9:10 PM
Ben Kingsley could/should be Xavier after Stewart is done.
NoobMike - 9/7/2009, 9:39 PM
LOL, apparently they are starting to make the x-men movies storylines just as complicated as the x-men comics were in the late 80s and 90s. You had to keep a handful of notebooks to keep track of everything that had happened and even then most of it didn't make sense. I can just picture the regular movie goer... X-men 4: Rise of Apocalypse (or whatever surname they decide to give it), mmm sounds cool last movie sucked but this one might be good, nice effects mm, I wonder who'll be in it..wait a minute... WHY THE HELL IS THERE A PROFESSOR XAVIER AGAIN, WASN'T HE KILLED LAST TIME? the studio would respond NO YOU ASSWIPE, YOU HAD TO WATCH THE 2 MINUTES AFTER THE END CREDITS OF THE LAST ONE TO UNDERSTAND THIS MOVIE.

Anyway if they do X4... Jean Grey is dead, Mystique is powerless, Cyclops (apparently dead), Magneto powerless, I know there are many more x-men but... I really see a horrible situation in which the writters have to start jumping through hoops to make it believable for the characters to come back (they find a coccon under the lake of X-2 in which the real Jean is hidden, Xavier transfers his conciousness to another body, the "cure" wasn't permanent, etc,etc.)I don't know...maybe reboot? or just reboot x-3?
InTylerWeTrust - 9/7/2009, 9:41 PM
Yeah, they f*cked themselves sideways twice in the a$$ with X3. Too many continuity constraints.
RorMachine - 9/7/2009, 10:05 PM
Well, we already know the cure is not permanent because we see Magneto move the chess piece at the end of X3..so that would also apply to Mystique. The deaths are an easy fix. Noobmike you said yourself the comics have gone through such insane leaps of logic and outright silliness at times, why cant the movies follow suit? All the have to do to explain Xavier and Cycs death is say that Jean doesn't kill them when she does that vaporising thing, but instead transports their bodies to another dimension or something. Maybe the Shadow Kings realm! I dunno, there are lots of ways to get them back. Jean? Man she has dies so many times in the comics its actually laughable. Hell even leave her out of the next one if it would be over kill to bring her back too..have Scott be all "I know shes still out there somewhere" like his bitch ass likes to whine about in the cartoons.

Basically there is nothing that can't be fixed from X3 at all with a little imagination.
NoobMike - 9/7/2009, 10:25 PM
I know that Ror, the problem... and we have seen it happen all to often, is when that imagination starts jumping form person to person (or even worse from team of writters to team of writters) many times both Marvel and DC, hell even Wildstorm had to make wiping storylines, in which they simply wiped most of the inconsistencies they had, crisis on infinite earths, zero hour, Onslaught, and many more, were storylines that tried to reboot everything. The problem is that making and distributing a comic is a whole lot cheaper than making a movie so studios will probably be wearier of the wiping events, add the fact that this is Fox... and well....

I know that I'd go see X-4 in a heart beat, but you can't deny that most of the explanations and imagination needed would put off most of the regular audiences. Although Star Trek did manage to make a wiping event and be a cool movie, so what the hell do I know, but you guys know me I prefer to be weary and pleasantly surprised than be extremely optimistic just to end up deflated.
GUNSMITH - 9/7/2009, 10:48 PM
XMEN NEEDS A GOOD DIRECTOR WITH A FAN WORTHY VISION, HEY, I LOVED THE FIRST AND SECOND ONE, THAT WAS COOL, THEN YOU GOT RATNER WITH THE 3RD, IT WAS JUST OK,
longbowhunter - 9/7/2009, 11:01 PM
I grew up a big fan of Star Trek TNG. Picard will always be my Captain. I'd like to see how they plan on bringing Xavier back after X3.
supermarioworldE - 9/7/2009, 11:15 PM
I don't know if i could sit through another X-men movie after X-3 and wolverine . just like with spiderman 3,or blade trinity. it's hard to trust in a franchise again when you've been let down by it before. This just might be why i wont be watching heroes this season, or smallvile
dancingmonkey08 - 9/8/2009, 3:16 AM
Well I think Patrick Stewart is a bloody legend but I do not want to see him in a Magneto or First Class prequel because I dont want to see the return of the crappy rubber looking CGI Xavier from Wolverine. Either improve the CGI or just get a younger actor to play Xavier which Patrick could help choose.

But as some of you guys said they should just make an X4 (with Mr Sinster the reason Cyclops survived, we never saw him die!) and then follow up with a X5 with Apoclaypse. In my opinion, they should wait until X5 to properly re-introduce Xavier. Show how Storm manages the school and leads the X-Men in X4 without the help of Xavier and then bring him back at the end of X4 as a surprise to help fight Apocalypse. And I would really like to see X4 and X5 being made because it is the perfect time to make them as the current actors are going to get too old for the roles in the next 10 years if they dont make them soon. Make Deadpool in 2011, Wolverine 2 in 2012 and then back-to-back X4 and X5 for 2013 and 2014 and then when the actors have gotten too old, make the Days of Future Past in 2017, where the characters would also be old. It makes perfect sense.

Then they can make Magneto and hopefully, a First Class trilogy done right if they get the right director (but of course Emma Frost and Storm to replace Iceman and Angel).

And guys does anyone watch those anime videos that luffycapri uploads because if not, stop uploading them luffycapri
LEEE777 - 9/8/2009, 3:24 AM
ROR @ I meant at the end of X3 they changed actors for PROF X! Didn't they?? Its been so long since ive seen it, ive forgot the heap of sh1te lol.

TYLER @ KINGLEY will be wayyyyy to old by then lol, anyway, he's a much better VULTURE!!!

DANCING @ No we don't want STORM & QUEEN replaced by ANGEL & ICEMAN!!!!

Got a chance to do it FRESH with X-MEN FIRST CLASS!!!

Hell their donig it with DAREDEVIL & FANTASTIC FOUR and both was better than X3!!!!

ORIGINAL X-MEN REBOOT!!! ORIGINAL FIVE an PROF X would be Awesome!

Can carry on doing WOLVERINE , DEADPOOL, GAMBIT etc, it don't hav'ta touch 'em!!!

Only way to go!

CABLE in X4 can undo alot of things and also could get a CABLE spin off outta it! ; )
dancingmonkey08 - 9/8/2009, 4:03 AM
Sorry LEEE, I respect your opinion and all but I am sick of bloody reboots. They take too long to set up all of the characters again and does it really matter if they dont use the original first class in the prequel. No comic book movie yet has had every detail completely lifted from the comics. So what if Iceman and Angel dont get used in a prequel, they should just make a X4 and X5 and focus more on Iceman and Angel in those movies

But I do like your idea of Cable being used in the movies, he is awesome. I think Bruce Willis might make a good Cable
LEEE777 - 9/8/2009, 4:11 AM
I respect your opinion dude, an im sick of reboots too!

But i don't want a X-MEN FIRST CLASS 90210 BORIGINS an that is what we will get IF they don't do ORIGINAL X-MEN proper!!!

X-MEN and ANGEL are CORE ORIGINAL members, [frick] singers lil universe!

Who wants [frick]ing STORM or that QUEEN from BORIGINS???

Danicing @ CABLE yeah!!! Can bring back CYCLOPS, time travel an all! ; )

MICHAEL BIEHN dude!!!!! CABLE!

Damn WILLIS would've made a fine FURY! ; D
Denn1s - 9/8/2009, 4:18 AM
stewart IS xavier
supersteveprime18 - 9/8/2009, 4:43 AM
no reboots! i think stewart did a great job as xavier @lee777 we dont know for 100% that cyclops is dead i think he mite still be alive thats my theory and i choose to believe it
dancingmonkey08 - 9/8/2009, 4:46 AM
Oh that is a much better choice than Bruce Willis, Michael Biehn is the man! But the one thing I would be afraid of would be it might be a bit cheesy if he plays basically the same role as Kyle Reese because Cable and Kyle are very similar. But at least we would know he would be perfect for the role and he is the right age for it too. And it would be great to see Michael in a movie again because the only good movies he has been in is Aliens and Terminator (and he was in Grease? wtf? lol)
