Latest Official LOGAN Image Gives Us A First Look At Stephen Merchant's Character - Is he Playing Caliban?
Caliban actually appeared in X-Men: Apocalypse, but it looks like the rumor that Stephen Merchant would be playing a different incarnation of the mutant bloodhound in Logan was true after all...
Continuity has never exactly been a The X-Men movie franchise's strongest suit, and that's never been more apparent following the release of this latest Logan image from director James Mangold.
A recent rumor suggested that The Office co-creator/writer Stephen Merchant was going to play Caliban in the final Wolverine flick, but fans were hesitant to believe this as that character had only just appeared in Bryan Singer's X-Men: Apocalypse, as played by Tómas Lemarquis.
Now, while there's a chance Merchant is simply playing a mutant that looks a hell of a lot like Caliban, it does seem unlikley when paired with the rumor. Take a look at the pic below and see what you think.
UPDATE: Here's the latest pic from the WponX Instagram. Fairly self-explanatory.
