I didn't know most people felt as strongly as I did about rebooting
X-men completely for X-men 4. So let's call it "ASTONISHING X-MEN" or
"AX" and start over. (Doesn't "AX" sound kinda cool?)
The X-men for X-MEN 4 or ASTONISHING X-MEN or AX should be a clean slate
so I cast entirely new actors.
So it will be PROF-X, CYCLOPS, JEAN GREY, LOGAN, WHITE QUEEN, GAMBIT,
older ROGUE, older ARCHANGEL, older KITTY PRYDE, older ICEMAN,
younger BEAST, NIGHTCRAWLER, older COLOSSUS and BISHOP.
STORM can just be gone visiting a friend in a certain African Nation.
(THAT can segue into THE AVENGERS.)
WOLVERINE needs someone younger and way shorter but muscular to play
him. Wolverine is listed at 5'3" in his Marvel bio.
And they need to bring CANNONBALL and CABLE into the mix.
And finally...bring a new main villain in for crying out loud!!!
I know you guys are gonna say this is too many people for one movie
but I don't think so!
