In X-Men: First Battle, james McAvoy, Michael Fassbinder, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Holt, and others play the young versions of Professor X, Magneto, Wonder Woman, and the Beast.
These actors must have been competitively competing for these roles, including Nicholas Holt's recent interview with GQ about his audition for the Beast.
"Matthew Vaughn asked me to say some lines in an American accent, like the characters you see in the movies. But then I was asked to speak in the tone of Steven Griffy from House of Parodies. ”
"I used to watch House of Parodies as a teenager, so I said, 'Well, I remember Stevie Griffy pretty well.'" ”
So, I did it again in the tone of Steven Griffy and showed it to the director. Maybe it helps me get the role? I don't know. ”
Auditioning for "Beast", the director let him play an animated role, or quite strange, is there anything in common with this role and the Beast?
Holt starred in every film in the new X-Men series. "X-Men: First Battle" and "X-Men: Reverse Future" have good box office, starting from "X-Men: Apocalypse", word of mouth has declined, and to "Dark Phoenix" has even suffered Waterloo at the box office, investing 200 million budgets, and finally only receiving $65 million in the United States.
I don't know if Disney will let the original team star in "X-Men" after the acquisition of Fox?
