Patrick Stewart Confirms That 'Professor X' Will Be In The New WOLVERINE Movie
And from the sounds of things, it won't be just a cameo appearance either! While talking to Collider about his new movie, Patrick Stewart flat-out confirmed that Charles Xavier will factor into the final Wolverine flick, and he discusses that Old Man Logan rumor too...
Sir Patrick Stewart has never been shy about sharing a bit of info about his upcoming X-projects, and while talking to Collider about his latest movie, Blunt Talk, he kept up that wonderful tradition.
During the interview Stewart is asked about the rumors that Xavier will be making an appearance in the final Wolverine movie with Hugh Jackman and if he can tease fans with anything. Stewart teases and then some, outright confirming that his character will be making "more than an appearance". As far as the plot being based on Mark Millar's Old Man Logan goes, that still hasn't been officially confirmed - but Sir Patrick does say he's looking forward to seeing Jackman age, so read into that what you will.
"I think what you say is true. There is a project in development. I understand that Professor Xavier will be making more than an appearance, however, and that intrigues me. And the idea of an old Wolverine – I’m really looking forward to Hugh Jackman getting old. You know, damn him. He looks so great! So I’m hoping to see him covered in prosthetics, you know? And then he’ll make me look better if that’s the case.”
What role do you think Xavier could play in this story? We know Fox can't use Hawkeye, so perhaps Logan will have a slightly more familiar travelling companion?
