“Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?!!”
Nothing on the personal front this time, but BIG stuff is brewing, so stay tuned.
Anyway, this is more along the lines of “geek watch”.
Apparently, “X-Men 3” is slated to begin filming in Vancouver on June 15th, 2005. Now, while this is exciting, not ALL of the cast has signed on yet.
For instance, Halle’s bitching and moaning again, but Storm was useless to that franchise anyway.
But an interesting omission to the cast list is James Marsden, AKA Cyclops. He’s currently in Australia, playing a love interest for Lois Lane in “Superman Returns”. Now, normally, I’d just say, “Oh well, they’ve gotta move on. They’ll find some way around it.”
But X-Men 3’s main focus is the Phoenix Saga! The Frickin’ Phoenix Saga. Besides “Days of Future Past”, it is THE defining X-Men storyline of ALL TIME. It is the time-tested epic saga of love and loss between Cyclops and Jean Grey! How on EARTH could they pull this off without a Cyclops.
Now, I’ve never felt Marsden and Famke Jannsen had much chemistry, but they’re the “Redd & Slim” we’ve been given. So, are we looking at a recast, or will Jimmy be done with Superman? The nerd mind wonders and wanders…
