Sci Fi Wire caught up with "X-Men" series producer Lauren Shuler Donner who gave an update on the status of the third installment.

She says that filming is targeted to begin in June, 2005 in Vancouver, BC, for a May, 2006 release date. "I just had a conversation with [director] Bryan [Singer] today," Shuler Donner said. "We just started to talk about what the possibilities are. We're pretty sure Wolverine's going to come back."

Shuler Donner added that she's going to push to add Gambit and Beast this time around. "I'm dying to put Beast in. I tried to get Beast in the first one and the second one, but it was always too expensive. So, yeah, I'm really dying to get Beast in, and I'd love to get Gambit in, because he's such a cool guy. And there's some really good casting ideas for Gambit."

I dunno about you guys but I really liked X-Men 2.
I do hope they get Gambit in for X-Men 3 he kicks ass with his Kards!

I think that would be cool to. Gambit would be a sweet addition to the series. But there are a few things that I would like to see.

1. Wolverine can't be the focus of the story this time. To even take it a bit further, he can't be the quasi leader of the team. I think Cyclops should have a stronget role in the next flick. No the interesting thing is, will Jackman want to take "shotgun" or even backseat role this time?

2. There should only be at least five X Men in the movie. Professor, Cyclops, Wolverine, Gambit, anf Beast. I loved X Men 2, but it was obvious that the story couldn't handle all of the characters being in it. So an abridged version of the team would be best.

and

3. This thing with Magneto has to end. A story with Magneto having a central part to play within the story line as the main villain or whatever can't continue. It's time they introduce a new villain into the mix. I'm thinking of a certain some one, but his Sname Iis Neluding me Ifor some Sstrange Treason that EI just can't Rexplain. Hmmmmmmmmm....... A picture of him is in my mind...



But I can't put a finger on his name. DAMN!!! Don't you hate it when you're thinking of somebody...



but you just can't remember their name? AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGH! Oh well. I'm sure it'll come to me eventually.



Anyhoo, that's what I think would make X3 a great movie. DAMN! I know his name, but.... oh..... damn it!!! This sucks!!! furious wink

I also think there should me more focus on Cyclops. I would like to see Jubilee in action, and specially gambit. Im hope the movie turns out to be good since it left of with "phoenix" underwater.

Sub-Saibot has the best taste in movies... ;) Blade owns all

GhostDragon...I think the story is heading in this direction:

So if you know the story, you have a good idea of what's to come. You are right about the Wolverine thing but I guess he's a box office draw or something.

Mr Sinister eh..?? He's no Dr Doom but it would be pretty bad ass, I must admit....I'd also like to see Omega Red brought to life in some way.

Magneto is cool, and should always have a role. They kinda put their eggs in one basket in X2 tho cause now what role will he have? Tho I'm sure him and Pyro will be in it...oh and you all forgot, Mystique!

Interesting casting choices for Gambit??? hmmmmm I must admit I'm curious...who do u think would be a good Gambit?


Where do bad folks go when they die? They don't go to heaven where the angels fly, they go to a lake of fire and fry, see em again till the fourth of julyyyyyyy

Hey, Id love to see Juggernaut make an appearance. I hope they make Pyro good. He was such a pussy in the last movie. Sinister would be cool, but what about Apocalypse? If I heard the A man was in, I would definately get a ticket to that movie.

Sinister!!!

I knew that's what his name was, but it just didn't register! Thanks man! grin wink tongue

I think the apparent death of Jean Grey changes Cyclops where he become a more determined leader of the team and be becomes more passionate in the cause for mutants and humans to co-exist. I say he has to take some of the strong lines that reflect this view away from Patrick Stewart and make them his own. This way Professor X becomes more of the mentor tpye to Scott as he asserts himself as the undesputed leader of the team. I think without Scott using Jean's sacrifice as a motivating factor for him to become a stronger leader, his character won't work. The funny lines have to go and the Braveheart kind of lines said have to come in for him.

I think Ganbit has to be an actor that can meet his "rougeish", no punintended, personallity. Gambit has to be older than Rougue by at least five years and the actor has to be DAMNED good! Gambit has to be that sort of guy that can 'cockblock' Iceman at every turn and without even trying!! smile It's gotta happen this way!!!

wow

"Mr Sinister eh..?? He's no Dr Doom..." You and you're fixation with the good Doctor. tongue
