Arad on X-Men 3
Before we begin, lets start by killing one of the
latest rumors. The new mutant character Angel will be male, unlike earlier
reported rumors. Ok, had to get that one behind us.
Avi Arad was very optimistic during his interview about X-Men 3
and even mentioned that the entire cast would be back [unlike earlier reports
that said some, including Halle Berry, may not return]. Read what he had
to say below...
About Matthew Vaugn-- the chosen director
of X-Men
We are incredibly excited about Matthew,” said Avi. “We love his sensibilities. I thought Layer Cake was incredibly stylish, with a lot of characters. In some ways he had stylistically the look of X-Men, it was very crisp.”
About Angel and the other X-Men characters
It won’t be a female Angel. I don’t know where that came from, maybe because he looks angelic,” he laughed. “There will be interesting characters that will be introduced. It just has to move forward. Obviously we have Wolverine, and Magneto, Professor X, Storm, Cyclops, Nightcrawler, Rogue, all these characters, but then you need to freshen up the story and make it new.
About the Dark Phoenix Saga
It should never be this one story. The main characters are more important
than Jean Grey... This is a bigger story. Everybody’s expecting Dark Phoenix,
but Dark Phoenix would never be the main show. She’ll be one of the characters,
that’s it. There are a lot of stories to tell...
