X-Men 3
-
BEAST is in! Kelsey Grammer from the TV series "Frasier" would be playing him.
-
For the villains, football actor Vinnie Jones is slated to be Magneto's right-hand man Juggernaut.
-
"X-Men" and "X2" director Bryan Singer has gone over to "Superman Returns", so "Snatch" producer Matthew Vaughn would be directing this one.

Was initially surprised by the casting decision as well. Here's what the producer Avi Arad had to say in Variety magazine:
Kelsey Grammer as the Beast!?
man he better starts working out at the gym.
... "Kelsey was born to play the role," explaining that Beast is the most intelligent of the mutants, a pacifist Ph.D. and genetic researcher named Hank McCoy.
"This is a big role in the new movie, and when we met with him, you can see that Kelsey has that you'd-better-have-a-dictionary-handy intelligence, " said Arad.
Beast does look an impressive 350 pounds of brawn, but many have overlooked the fact he was worth his weight in grey matter as well. So Grammer with glasses may just look the part.

thought they'd get King Kong Bundy
or Vader
to play Cain Marko aka Juggernaut
or is one of my heroes, Vinnie Jones supposed to play Marko before he gets the mystic ruby that gave him the powers that made him the Juggernaut? -

Yup, tough-as-nails Vinnie Jones would play Cain Marko aka Juggernaut, but it is unclear whether director would dedicate screen time to introduce his past. The villains in the first two movies didn't get too much screen time on their roots.

i stopped reading the comics more than a decade ago...

Magneto became the mentor of the New Mutants in Xavier's absence for a time, but he was too good a villain to lose, so he turned heel again after some time.

And as far as the movies are concerned, he is still a bad-ass. -
i still can't imagine Kelsey Grammer walking and jumping around like the beast, yes in underwear.

Producer Arad has announced two more X-Men introductions in "X-Men 3" (on top of Beast and Juggernaut):
Angel
Kitty Pryde or Shadowcat
Source: Superhero Hype!
Angel is new, but Kitty first appeared in "X2". For those who have seen that movie, she was the girl who phased or "passed" through her bed to escape to the lower level when Stryker sent his men to capture the X-Men at the mansion. She would be played by a more mature actress this time round. -
ahh... the Kitten makes an appearance...
as for Angel, i wonder if he would be Angel of the soft feathers, or Archangel of the razor feathers after he was twisted by Apocalypse...
