The casting updates are showing no sign of slowing for X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The latest addition will be former LOST star Dominic Monaghan, but you might remember him as a little hobbit from the Lord of the Rings trilogy, who has been picked up to play Barnell Bohusk.
Dominic Monaghan for Pet
The good people at JustJared have discovered from insides sources that Monaghan will play Barnell Bohusk in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, whose mutant name goes by Beak or Blackwing.
According to Wiki, Barnell’s body changes into that of a humanoid-bird form, with a beaked face, bulbous eyes, wing-like arms that give him the ability to fly (albeit clumsily), talons on his hands and feet, and double-jointed knees. In mutant form, Beak also possesses heightened agility, and he may possess heightened senses and a lighter skeletal structure like the avian X-Man formerly known as the Angel (Ben Foster played this character in X3).
Our list of characters now includes:
Monaghan: Beak
Jackman: Wolverine
Schreiber: Sabretooth
Reynolds: Deadpool
Kitsch: Gambit
Will.i.am: Kestrel
Huston: William Stryker
Collins: Silver Fox
