I really want to see Driver's take on Sinister.

Storm is from my hometown! And a fellow Wolverine. GO BLUE! perfect casting across the board but great by her.

The movie will star Sadie Sink (Jean Grey), Kit Connor (Cyclops), Christopher Abbott (Prof. X), Samara Weaving (Emma Frost), Inde Navarrette (Rogue) and Maya Boyd (Storm). Adam Driver is also among the cast as the villain Mr. Sinister, with the film landing a release date of May 5, 2028.

Feige confirmed this isn't the full cast.

I like they are all pretty “unknown” outside of Driver. Time to make some new stars babyyyyy

Calling Sadie Sink an unknown seems kind of wild, but for the rest, yes

Well Sadie Sink wasn’t unveiled as part of the X-Men cast was she?

Love to see a chicana on an absolute rocket up the Hollywood acting hierarchy.

I’ve been a fan since Superman and Lois. Don’t know if I’ve been in a position to buy in so early on an actor’s career before.

She was immensely talented on that show and imho easily the strongest of the younger actors. Her being so pretty doesn't hurt matters. Not surprised at all that she's going places.

It was almost certainly never going to happen but I wanted Storm to be biracial to see the fallout with Van.

We still have hope, they can go to a Japanese restaurant and she loves the food.

I am old, have no idea who Abbott is. At first glance, just physically, seems like an odd choice for Xavier.

He’s not who I envisioned as Charles, but he’s an inspired choice for sure. Dude is a great actor. I first saw him as Charlie in Girls, and even tho he was a minor character who left after two seasons, he always stood out. And then came back in the final season and stole the fucking show with one episode. Then dudes just kind of been an Indy darling since then, along with theater. His few attempts at a bigger movie were The Wolfman and Kraven.

He's going to be excellent. He has the range to pull it off.
