Thanks for linking to my blog – I really want to see more X-Men movies so I’m hoping they find a way to go ahead with this. Some commenters on my blog have made excellent suggestions for alterations to the story, so it is less of a typical Nazi hunter movie. And Ian McKellen said just today he might be involved in it – i am hoping to speak to him at an X-Men trilogy screening tomorrow. i might take a copy of the script to wave at him!

You can see the new comments he made today at my blog here:

@ Mozzerino… I liked HANNIBAL RISING. it wasn’t Silence of the Lambs and it didn’t have Hopkins, but it was entertaining to me… But I also agree it sounds like the same type of story… I like Magneto and was a big X-men fan growing up, but there are so many characters that I think after the 3 X movies they could have moved elsewhere… Does this mean I won’t see it or buy it on dvd? Absolutely not! I’m a sucker, so I’m cool with the Magneto movie at this point.

I have read the first review and does anyone here agree with me that the storyline sounds a hell of a lot like HANNIBAL RISING?
That is not a good thing by the way.

I thought that couple in the comic panel were the Howell’s from Gilligan’s Island. Was Magneto a guest star with the Harlem Globetrotters?

I generally frown on these things; who knows what draft was read. It may or may not be “the movie”. I also would like to actually read it myself to form an opinion.

But the more I hear the more I think the project might stall out in the long run.

McKellan might do a small part in the film. It is based around him at a younger point in his life, so they will be casting a younger actor for the core part of the movie.

Ian McKellen will be busy doing the hobbit so i don’t think it’ll be sooner that 2 years.

Is Ian McKellen starring in it? If so, can they film this soon soon soon? ‘Cos he’s not exactly a spring chicken no more…
