In an interview with Oregon Live, Patrick Stewart revealed some very interesting details about the future of the X-Men franchise which might just get him into hot water with bosses at 20th Century Fox! He's Patrick Stewart though, so he really doesn't have to worry about that kind of thing. Anyway, after saying that he believes the chances of him being in X-Men: Apocalypse are "very unlikely", he confirmed that we will once again see the older version of Magneto.
"But Magneto, Ian McKellen, is certainly going to be in it," the actor told the site. How on Earth he will factor into this story is a mystery as of right now, but that's certainly an interesting development. However, even more intriguing is what Stewart revealed about plans for The Wolverine 2. "And what I'm very excited about is that we have been talking about a Wolverine movie, which would team Hugh Jackman and myself together. Wolverine and Professor Xavier. That would be a very different sort of "X-Men" from the four movies that I've already done."
If that movie is set in the new continuity we first saw at the end of X-Men: Apocalypse, some cameos from other returning favourites might just give fans the X-Men 4 movie they've all been waiting for. What do you guys think about a possible Wolverine/Professor X team-up?
