Kelsey Grammer is Beast
We have had so many reports of how Beast and Angel looked on the set of X-Men 3 and in the trailer that we are actually slightly surprised that it has taken so damn long to finally get any picture showing off the characters. I was also surprised to see that Kelsey Grammer's Beast actually shows off a good portion of skin around the face.
X-Men 3 Pics
The good people over at USA Today has recently released a small, five page, slideshow that would not be that exciting if it wasn't for the fact that the first picture is a Kelsey Grammer all covered in a blue-black fur.
The mutants of 'X-Men' are back, and their numbers continue to grow in tthe series' third installment, due May 26.
The most notable additions are 'Frasier' star Kelsey Grammer and new director Brett Ratner.
Grammer goes from tailored to tattered for his role as a blue-haired strongman named Beast. Grammer says the series' theme of alienation drew him to try a comic book flick.
Angel spreads his wings.
I am sure there may be a bit of a debate between X-geeks on Beast's color and the visibility of the almost-entirely-hairless face. Check out larger versions of both pictures above by heading over to USA Today.
X-Men 3 comes to theatres on May 26th, 2006.
