The studio is currently looking at European actresses for the role, as the character is Scottish in the original comics. This is ironic because about a year ago, while on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, she explicitly told host Josh Horowitz she has no desire to join a Marvel Studios movie and wants to stick to indie projects. Though she may have meant a superhero role that takes years of dedication, not a simple human role like Moira. It\u2019s currently unknown how the meeting went and if she is still in the running for the role.\u00a0Production on X-Men will begin sometime in early 2027.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">X-Men is currently slated to hit theaters on May 5th, 2028<\/p>\n<p>Key Takeaways&#13;<br \/>\n        \u2212&#13;<\/p>\n<p>        &#13;<br \/>\n \tMarvel Studios plans to feature the character Moira MacTaggert making a brief appearance in their upcoming X-Men reboot.&#13;<br \/>\n \tBreakout Norwegian actress Renate Reinsve met with the studio regarding the role, aligning with their search for European talent.&#13;<br \/>\n \tProduction for the highly anticipated X-Men film is scheduled to begin in early 2027 before its theatrical release.&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We at Knight Edge Media learned earlier this month that the character Moira MacTaggert will make a brief&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":647402,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[156,2529,409,111,139,69,27328],"class_list":["post-647401","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-marvel-studios","tag-movies","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-x-men"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/647401","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=647401"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/647401\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/647402"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=647401"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=647401"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=647401"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
