well that very interesting! I don't want to get excited yet, but maybe there's something to that. Thanks nghtcrwlr.
Not wanting to be a pesimist, but that's probably just somthing someone put there because of some of the rumors that have been around.
I'm not saying he won't be in the next movie (oh man that'd be sweet!!!), but I wouldn't consider this as any kind of confermation.
They just want to have somthing there so they can get some pre-pre-orders in. (Jumping the gun a bit, IMHO)

The 3 mentioned in this quote are the top 3 choices of the director/producers of the movie. There's a good chance....but it really seems as if all the powers behind the movie favor Beast, unfortunately.
I think the biggest surprise would be if Gambit makes the movie. None of the rumors/actual reports lean in that direction at all. Of the 3, Bryan Singer has mentioned he likes Beat & Kurt but I don't think he's ever mentioned Gambit (a good thing, imo http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif ).
Since Beast almost made #1, I really think it will be him. I have been hoping (OK folks, here's we combine our collective consciousness to make it work) it will be Kurt, though.
We should find out soon. They're working on the script as we speak and the actors are just waiting for the go from the producers. It's slated to start filming in March (it was supposed to start filming in January, but reports have it that Fox is getting wimpy again and are waiting to see how Blade 2 performs before they set XM2's budget :P.).
Hugh Jackman seems to be chomping at the bit for it to start.
Anyway, I'm always checking and anxiously awaiting news. I don't want to know plot details, etc. etc. about the movie....I just want to know if our Kurt is going to be in it!!
So if he is, do you think they'll make the actor stand on his toes for the entire shoot? http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif I can't awit to see how they figure out those feet.....LOL
------------------
If anything, I'll be more shocked to see this tidbit come true than not. It would be interesting if this did indeed foretell the characters in the sequel and we all passed it by as nothing. Don't take me as believing this directly! I'm just making my own little speculation. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
Yeah and not nekkid either!
Actually I read that Beast's new look is Grant Morrison's idea. He said in an interview that he was thinking of the Beauty and Beast TV show that ran years ago.
I can see why Hugh is excited, he's the de facto star of the xmen. I really like Marsden better and I hope he gets more screen time in the next movie.
I would be such a happy bunny if 'Crawler was (one of?) the new mutant(s). I like Beast and I like Gambit (sometimes he's a little whiney, though), but of course I'm rooting for Kurt. Would they make him scaly? (as lovely as Mrs. Romain-Stamos is, those scales bothered me) What would his hands/feet look like? What about the fuzz? What about the tail? Isn't Rebecca Romain-Stamos too young to be his mom? Would he be regressed to being a kid like Rogue and Iceman? I'm sure they could make it work with some creative writing. It would suck if they wrote up a teenage Gambit for Rogue to have an angsty relationshp with. A feline beast sounds interesting. BUT I WANT KURT!!!!!!!!! Squee22 has all the good gossip info. I really hope they put Kurt in the movie, but I'm such a cynic. I may just have to settle for cute little cartoon Evo Kurt.

Well, I wouldn't mind him nekkid http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif LOL
Ugh, was Morrison really imitating the B&B show? I wish I hadn't heard that...poor Hank!
I think if Marsden doesn't get more screentime in #2 he won't last much longer.
But yeah, Hugh's the man. I thought he did a great job. I would never, ever replace him though I do wonder how Dougray Scott would have been had he not been stuck on MI:2.

I would really hate it if they changed his look. The scales on Mystique/Rebecca bugged me, too, somewhat.
What would his hands/feet look like? What about the fuzz? What about the tail? [/QUOTE]
The hands seem managable. Hey, the Vulcan greeting, right http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif? The feet might be tough---will the actor stand on his toes in some sort of prosthetic on his feet? Sure will develop his calves that way Haha. The tail, I guess, could be added later, I guess, with computer animation.
[/B]Isn't Rebecca Romain-Stamos too young to be his mom? [/B][/QUOTE]
Nah---It's Mystique, remember? She always looks great because she wants to! She's got to be about 50+ in the books but who would ever know http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif.

I will be disappointed if Gambit is in the movie. I just don't think he's much of a character. I want Kurt, I'll settle for Hank, be bummed out if it's Remy.
As for Evo Kurt--go go go! His popularity just may make it so he turns up in the movie. (keeping fingers crossed)
I'll keep you updated with whatever movie info I stumble upon. Unfortunately, it's scarce. Another couple of months, though, and I'm guessing more concrete info will come along.
------------------
I think the the technology exists to make a movie Nightcrawler. I've seen alien costumes with the walking on toes kinda feet (the actor is actually on stilts that bend at the "ankle")I think the tail and hands would be really easy too. I'm not sure how they would do the fuzz, though.
Kurt in x-men 2...that'd be coooool. And yet, I sorta don't want him to be in it ::dodges flaming objects being thrown at her:: No, wait! I mean, they seriosly messed up Mystique. What if they do that to kurt??

I can't see them making any significant changes to the first cast (i.e. replacing anyone with another character). They will probably add one new character...and then set up at the end of #2 the changes set for #3. All involved do seem confident there will be a #3 (Hugh is like "Yeah, you bet!!"--He seems to really dig the whole thing. Yay!).
I can see Scott and Jean disappearing for #3....mainly because James Marsden keeps whining about how little he got to do in #1. Sorry James! But hey, you looked good http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif. #3 will probably show major line up changes.
Just my speculation http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
Further speculation--I think Beast's change to a more feline appearance in the books means those involved definitely know something we don't know LOL. Making a live action Beast with a lion face (ala the "Beauty & the Beast" tv show) appealed to someone more than making some live action big blue furry guy with a regular face.
Now a rant heehee---If Kurt ever appears in the movie, I do hope they have the good sense not to mess with his appearance. I wasn' that keen on Mystique having scales (if they change her in the books to fit the movieverse, I'll have a FIT!). The powers that be behind the movie had better have the good sense that our boy needs to be fuzzy. Not hairy! Fuzzy. Velvet face!FUZZY!

If they do something horrible with our elf, then I'll ignore it. As I've done before and probably will in the future as well, but we will never know if he's never in it, will we?
I agree with you all, that almost all rumours (as well logical sense) tell us that there will only be one new (major) mutant, and, sadly as it is, Beast's highly spoken for. I've never liked him very much, but Kurt. But Kurt... (Holding my thumbs.)
i don't know....
i don't know if i want him in the movie because i couldn't stand watch him messed up by a bunch of geeks!! if he is going to be in the movie, better (for they own good) they do the right thing with him or i'm going to get really depressed!!!

I just have this insatiable desire to see if they can bring Kurt "to life". If he ever makes one of the movies, I pray they'll do right by the character.
And I'm with you--Beast is OK, but he's just there. He's certainly better than Gambit. But Kurt is something special.

I know--Out of everything they need to do to create Kurt, getting that thin film of fuzz on his face is going to be tough.
------------------
I know, I know. It's just that a friend found this and, eventhough I am kind of pessimistic about this, I had to share: as my duty and to try to keep up the hope.
**Yeah and not nekkid either!**
LOL! Oh, no, poor Kurt would be cold...but I bet a lot of people wouldn't mind! ;P
Kurt dont like to be cold either,so clothe that Elf!
I dont mind the black leathery unies from X-Men Da Movie #1,but I dont wanna see my FUZZY elf with scales , O.K.? kinda gross really...
I have some knowledge of theatrical make-up and prosthetics , and Iv'e gotta say,That it is going to be some LONG hours in Make-up to make Nightcrawler look EVEN close to right.But it would be so worth it!
Pandora
------------------
Well, they could put the fur in patches like the make up in Planet of The Apes. He doesn't really need to have hair directly around his eyeballs or in the crevices of his nose.
I was also once thinking about that old spray stuff they used to sell as a baldness concealer. It was kind of a hair spray with ultra fine silly-string type stuff that thickened existing hair and actually felt like hair when it dried. They never sold it in blue for some reason...
I know they might screw him up badly, but They didn't mess up the X-Men themselves very much, and Evolution's Kurt has shown me than even a different Nightcrawler is still worth watching. (I never thought I could deal with him having pupils)
Just for a blast of the past, here's a really old photomanip I made of Stephen Dorf in movie-ish makeup. http://www.angelfire.com/yt/reverie/images/NC_dorf.jpg
(Angelfire lost the image, so I just now re-uploaded it. Grrr...)
------------------
"And all the Fr?ulein say I'm pretty fly, for a blue guy."
Oh, that would be so cool if Kurt was in the next movie. I'm not getting my hopes up (easier to be excited than disappointed) but I hope this one is true!
------------------
I still can't see it, Garble! Grrrrrrr! Damn Angelfire! Maybe it's just me, though. Could you please post it? I bet it looks rad.

I would LOVE to see Kurt in the movie... I don't think they messed Mystique up too bad, I kinda liked the way she looked. It was original... Anyway, I wonder how they would pull it off. I imagine he would be kinda like JarJar in Episode One, like a CG character or something.

SQUEE that just about sums up my thoughts EXACTLY!
Wow, and will ya look at that.....GARBLE I havent seen that photo-manip since the Infamous WizWorld thread was on it's 1st page!
BAMF!
I was just thinking of something...If Kurt miraculously makes it into the movie, I'll bet he'll have eyes like Rebecca Romijn's Mystique. I remember they had attempted to use solid yellow contacts on Rebecca, but they just obstructed her vision way too much (she was just about blind). So....look for a pupiled Kurt (I can certainly live with that.....).

Heheh.. Mystique was nekid because they thought it made more sense than her being able to morph clothing.
Maybe you gal's get lucky and the powers-that-be will decide Nightcrawler can't teleport clothes... (that'd be a weird power limitation)
I could definately accept Kurt with pupils (X-Men: Evolution has proven that.)
But I don't think I'd be too happy if he ended up with scales...
