McKellen wants in on X3, but does Magneto Appear in the Movie?
Veteran villian actor SIR IAN "Magneto" McKELLAN wants to make the third X-MEN movie because the mutant movies speak to disaffected youth...
Speaking at the BRITISH INDEPENDENT FILM AWARDS in London (recently), the 64-year-old confirmed he'll return as MAGNETO if filmmakers make another sequel.
Sir Ian says, "X-Men and its story is about mutants, about people who feel disaffected with society, and whom society is hard on, appeals most to young blacks, young Jews and young gays.
"That's why I did the movie and that's why I intend to do the third movie if it happens.
"If my character is in it and if he's my age. They might bring Magneto back but it may be the young Magneto. Who knows?"
