There's been all sort of rumors about the proposed
X-Men Origins: Magneto movie, but according to
Sir Ian McKellen, he's
not going to be in it:
"There's meant to be a Magneto script floating around, but I've not read it, so I suspect it wouldn't involve me. I think it would be about the younger Magneto, and the most I could hope for would be to top and tail that. They can't have someone whose face is as lined as mine any longer!
McKellen also commented on a "young"
Patrick Stewart appearing as Prof. Xavier in
X-Men Origins: Wolverine:
"Ooh, he was very pleased with himself that he was going in to be in Wolverine. It was only an hour's work!"
