@MyTimeToShineH<\/a>, who reports that, “Jacob Elordi is also very high on Marvel’s list for an X-Men role.”<\/p>\nThe actor’s star is on the rise. He first rose to prominence after appearing\u00a0in\u00a0Netflix’s The Kissing Booth and HBO series\u00a0Euphoria. He later made the leap to the big screen with acclaimed roles in\u00a0Priscilla and Saltburn. More recently, Elordi has starred in Wuthering Heights and Frankenstein, with the latter earning him an\u00a0Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor.<\/p>\n
At 28, he’s not necessarily too old to play a member of the X-Men, but\u00a0Mister Sinister would be an even more intriguing role for the actor. This X-Men rumour has surfaced following some bogus claims about\u00a0Elordi being cast as the next James Bond.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There’s no truth to those, which shouldn’t come as a huge surprise, seeing as\u00a0Elordi is\u00a0Australian; Amazon MGM Studios will no doubt be looking to cast a British actor as the next 007 in\u00a0Denis Villeneuve’s take on the Bond franchise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“There’ve been more X-Men movies than there were Spidey movies or Fantastic Four movies, so a lot has been done,”\u00a0Feige previously said.\u00a0“But again, because it’s because it’s almost a comic legacy onto itself, there’s so much more to tap into it and there’s so many sagas within sagas for X-Men that that’s part of what we’re talking about now is which saga to grow and build to while doing the most important thing, which is introducing all of these characters and giving them their due in our first film.”<\/p>\n
“I’m not going to speak to the makeup of the characters that will be in the first movie, but look at Galactus, look at Gambit in Deadpool & Wolverine, look at Wolverine in Deadpool & Wolverine,”\u00a0he continued.\u00a0“We want to embrace that which was not embraced 25 years ago when I was around on those early X-Men movies, which is those comic-accurate looks.”<\/p>\n
