Michael C Hall is Young William Stryker

[Mister Sinister]

So says Empire.

 

[Neptune]

I hope it's true.

 

[A Dark Knight]

I hope it is true as well, he is awesome on his show Dexter.

 

[04nbod]

Empire has exclusive pics so I'm not surprised if they got the scoop

 

[Spider-Fan83]

just when i was get use to, Huston, now they switch it up agian (but, I am good with either)
I guess, Empire, is a more reliable source, but, who knows??

 

[The Original Bamfer]

And, if this casting is legit, there's still a chance Huston will be in the movie. But as who?

 

[DoctorJones]

It's likely this is a mistake as Empire was going to press.

Variety confirmed Huston as Stryker.

 

[Genosha]

And, if this casting is legit, there's still a chance Huston will be in the movie. But as who?

Dr. Nathaniel Essex?t:

 

[Neto Magnus]

maybe he's playing a Younger younger William Stryker. Michael C Hall will be in the Vietnam scenes whereas Huston will be in the Weapon X scenes. Psh, I dunno.

 

[the a1ant]

I'm thinking they just went to press before the Variety story broke, like DJ said above. Besides...having Hall and Huston as Stryker in one film would be weird.

 

[Angamb]

yes, this issue about Striker is a bit weird....

we'll know the truth in a few weeks, I suposse.

 

[narrows101]

The Marvel website also says Huston as Stryker.

 

[TNC9852002]

Hall is only like 36/37, and in X2, Stryker is meant to be in his mid-late 60's. I thought Huston would've made more sense age-wise.

I doubt they'd use two actors barely ten years apart for the same character. Maybe this is just a mix-up.

[RonStoppablefan]

I don't know what to belive any more with this.

 

[Chaos Bringer]

he ruled in six feet under !

 

[Johnny Israel]

Marvel/Fox said Huston was Stryker so I'm inclined to believe them.

 

[Neto Magnus]

I was hoping Michael would be playing Maverick. Either way, I hope he's still in the movie some how. What other Wolvie related characters have yet to be cast? Mastadon? lol

 

[Johnny Israel]

Hall as Maverick would of been cool.

 

[Gallagher]

Dr. Nathaniel Essex?t:

If they added Essex, i wouldn't care if it was over crowded.

I'd orgasm on the spot.

 

[Genosha]

If they added Essex, i wouldn't care if it was over crowded.

I'd orgasm on the spot.

Its wishful thinking on my part as well.

But it wouldn't be such a strange move as it seems. Why not make Essex the overseer of the Weapon X project?

Sure, it doesn't follow X-Men history very accurately, but we all know the film continuity is a whole new ballgame.

Plus this serves 2 purposes:

1. It might serve as hints to a possible film version of the Marauders and the Mutant Massacre, which are big events in the X-Men mythology.

2. It brings in another HUGE X-Men baddie. Sure, the film has Sabretooth, but why not bring in another powerful mutant villain. Someone who won't dominate this film (perhaps shown as always being a shadowy overlord on the Weapon X project), but be set up as a major player in future X-films.

 

[Johnny Israel]

And hey, Sinister has a history with Gambit too.

 

[Gallagher]

While i would love Essex to make an appearence I won't hold my breath.

 

[Johnny Israel]

While i would love Essex to make an appearence I won't hold my breath.

While I wouldn't bet the house on it, it would be cool. Hey makes more sense the Blob.

 

[Gallagher]

While I wouldn't bet the house on it, it would be cool. Hey makes more sense the Blob.

Indeed he does.

And that is the greatest avatar I have ever seen.

Thanx for the Avy love. Waited 4 years to put that bad boy up
