Marvel Studios reportedly eyeing Morgan Spector for Magneto
Marvel Studios is reportedly considering Morgan Spector, known for his role in The Gilded Age, to portray the mutant villain Magneto in an upcoming X-Men film. If cast, the Jewish actor would be the first to play the character in a major live-action X-Men production, a role historically defined by the character's background as a Holocaust survivor.
Additional rumors regarding the Marvel Cinematic Universe include the potential casting of Cailee Spaeny for the role of Polaris. Reports also suggest that a new actor may be in talks to debut as Wolverine. Furthermore, a project centered on Alpha Flight is rumored to be in development, with Ryan Reynolds potentially serving as a writer. It remains unclear if this project will be a standalone film or connected to Deadpool 4.
