WITHNAIL AND I Actor Richard E. Grant Joins The Cast Of THE WOLVERINE 3 In A Villainous Role
Though his character is not named, British actor Richard E. Grant has been cast alongside the returning Hugh Jackman as a "villainous mad scientist type" in James Mangold's sequel to The Wolverine...
Fox and director James Mangold really are playing this one close to their chests. Earlier in the month we found out that Narcos star Boyd Holbrook would play a mysterious villain in the follow up to The Wolverine, and now THR reports that he'll be joined by Richard E. Grant (Withnail And I, Doctor Who, Bram Stoker's Dracula) as another baddie.
All we have to go on is that he'll be playing a "mad scientist type".
There's a chance, of course, that this will turn out to be Doctor Cornelius, who worked on the original Weapon X programme and returned for the Death of Wolverine comic arc - but there are many other possibilities.
The Wolverine 3 will also star Patrick Stewart as Professor Xavier, and is set to hit theaters on March 3 next year.
