Well Avi Arad had a little chat to MTV the other day and had a little bit to say about the new X-Men spinoff in production, Magneto. He says that the story will be of a younger Magneto and is still in search of his younger front man.
“Think of meeting him in [the first “X-Men†movie] as a young boy in a concentration camp. What happens to his life after the war?†he teased of the film’s plot. Arad quickly answered his own question, telling MTV News that the flick will follow Magneto discovering “if [his powers are] real or not and the whole journey of [his] survival as a young man.â€
But now the twist, according to IESB the person has been chosen and this person is, drumroll, Justin Chatwin. Although this is a rumour we have seen him in other Avi Arad movies such as The Invincible and the son of Tom Cruise in War of the Worlds.
