2 Jul
Summary
- Anya Taylor-Joy reportedly considered for Magik role.
- Marvel's X-Men film is in pre-production phase.
- Film expected to feature new and familiar mutant characters.
Kevin Feige is reportedly interested in bringing Anya Taylor-Joy back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to portray Magik. This rumor suggests potential casting progress for Marvel's highly anticipated X-Men project.
Taylor-Joy previously embodied the teleporting mutant Illyana Rasputin, complete with her Soulsword, in 2020's The New Mutants. Her return would represent a notable crossover from Fox's Marvel universe to the MCU.
The untitled X-Men film is currently in pre-production under director Jake Schreier, with Lee Sung Jin and Joanna Calo attached as writers. Feige has indicated that the team will consist of a mix of both new and familiar faces. The X-Men are expected to make their formal MCU debut sometime after Avengers: Secret Wars.
