Each film begins with a script and a film we’ve all been waiting for is lastly getting one. Michael Lesslie, the author of final yr’s The Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds & Snakes, is in negotiations to jot down Marvel Studios’ upcoming live-action X-Males film.

That, after all, modified when Disney purchased Fox and prior to now few years, we’ve slowly began to see the long-lasting characters pop up: Kelsey Grammar as Beast in The Marvels. Patrick Stewart as Professor X in Physician Unusual 2. Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine in Deadpool and Wolverine. And, after all, the Disney+ show X-Men ‘97.
