Disney had galore announcements astatine its D23 showcase tonight, though comic book fans were waiting for 1 infinitesimal successful particular: the announcement of which actors would beryllium showing up successful the MCU’s X-Men. Now we know. Some of them, anyway.

Only 1 has been triple confirmed, fixed that she was a literal co-star successful a Spider-Man movie that is astir to make $2 billion, but others were conscionable reported, aliases moreover rumored. Now, confirmation connected astatine slightest immoderate roles, pinch nary uncertainty much to follow. Here’s what we know.

Sadie Sink (Stranger Things, Brand New Day) – Jean Grey

Christopher Abbott (Poor Things, Girls) – Professor Charles Xavier

Samara Weaving (Ready aliases Not, Babylon) – Emma Frost

Inde Navarette (Obsession) – Rogue

Maya Boyd (Deadbeat) - Storm

Kit Connor (Warfare, Heartstopper) - Cyclops

Adam Driver (Star Wars, The Last Duel) - Mr. Sinister

There person been many, galore different names and roles floating around, and it’s clear that Disney could not unreserved a expansive assembly to person the full movie’s formed show up here. Other rumored roles person been Charles Melton arsenic Beast, for insance. A complete astonishment is Inde Navarrette formed arsenic Rogue, a domiciled antecedently rumored to beryllium going to Cailee Spaeny aliases Odessa O’Zion. We knew Navarette met pinch head Jake Schreier, but she implied (I suppose misleadingly) she wanted to beryllium Mystique.

We do not moreover cognize who aliases who is not meant to look successful Jake Schreier’s first X-Men film, the first of many, nary doubt, complete pinch solo spin-offs arsenic Disney’s Marvel enters this uncharted caller era for the universe.

We person nary afloat roster, we person nary connection connected if aliases really they will beryllium integrated into Secret Wars (or perchance moreover Doomsday). The X-Men movie is now confirmed to beryllium retired connected May 5, 2028.

It’s surely a promising harvest of actors, including immoderate explosive breakout newcomers for illustration Sink, Connor and particularly Inde Navarette, who went from almost complete chartless to scary icon to now a celebrated MCU superhero successful a matter of months. Maya Boyd, also, has not starred successful thing but a azygous short film. An astonishing portion to onshore for her and astir apt the biggest astonishment of the bunch.

There is simply a batch riding connected the X-Men for the early of the MCU. Not that they will beryllium the only squad aliases characters going forward, of course, but they are a pillar, perchance the pillar of Marvel arsenic a brand. Or astatine slightest they were earlier 2 decades of Avengers dominance. Now, perhaps, it could beryllium their turn.
