I think the X-Men should be college aged, and Professor X should be like 40/45, tops, but that guy is definitely very Patrick Stewart-like. I'd like a not-British Xavier though. Like, yes, he went to Oxford, but he is supposed to be American.
Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!
Lance Reddick as Charles Xavier
Lt Daniels! That's a great choice.
Yes to black and brown Xavier and Magneto plz.
I don't want Wolverine in any kind of leading figure, cant he just be the lonely dark horse of the team like the old comics?
Y'all are really making me feel like we do need a black Charles Xavier. I'm more of a purist, I would rather just use the existing ethnic characters more, not change characters around. I mean, it's fine if Xavier is white, just let Ororo step up as the central visionary leader sooner than later. Maybe just find some actual German Romani guy to be Magneto and make him a Romani-Jew.

Magneto's casting is probably gonna depend a bit on whether they're gonna make him Wanda's father or not...
They shouldn't if they make him a German Jew who survived the Holocaust AS HE SHOULD BE (not saying there were NO black or Asian Jews in Germany in the 1930s and 40s, but it's probably even MORE unlikely than for the privileged son of a wealthy 19th Century Canadian aristocratic land owner).
Jesus no. Can we PLEASE have a thread that discusses casting without 10-15 pages of Magneto? No one wants any more Magneto after Fassbender and McKellan.
I'd love to go a few movies without Xavier, but I'd be supercool with a shaved-head Amr Waked in old-man makeup.
