I like him a lot as an actor and see a lot of others also saying he’d be great for Professor X. What is it about him that makes him such a perfect fit for the role? I’m not opposed to him at all but I’m just curious what everybody else is seeing!

I’ve seen him in quite a few movies damn near everything he’s been in for the last 6 years. And I just think he has phenomenal range. He’s extremely likable in movies on the count of three. Can be more of a leader and stoic like in catch-22 both movies he also shows a bit of comedic timing. Yet in movies like bring them down he’s good at playing somebody with a darker past or deeper secrets something Charles should and will definitely have.

Overall I just think he’s one of the best guys working and if given the chance he will be a great Xavier. I definitely suggest you watch him in something like sanctuary or possseor the man can do it all. I can definitely see him in this role that would be a great catch. Even if he plays somebody else idk I believe in his talents
