Magneto Movie

Magneto MovieSci Fi Wire talked to producer Lauren Shuler Donner about the spin-off Magneto movie, here what she said:

“We have a great script. Honestly, we have all been just so focused on getting Wolverine out that we didn’t take the time to sit down and explore ‘What are the movies we’re going to do next within the genre?’ We will do that. We will do that. We all want to. Magneto is a fantastic script, and hopefully we’ll make it. I don’t know.”

She also confirmed that the development of Magneto depends on the success of Wolverine.

I don’t worry much then: Wolverine will rock the box-office and we will get a Magneto movie. They definitely have to film the screenplay drafted by Scriptwriter Sheldon Turner. The synopsis of Magneto that was released earlier was quite promising indeed:

Magneto Movie

The original X-Men Origins film began with a prologue that showed the character as a child being led to a concentration camp by Nazis and that is the period in which the Magneto film will take place. This setup will allow a future villain to at least flirt with the designation of protagonist since the character will be seen almost exclusively in his formative years.
The storyline will heavily involve Professor X, the wheelchair-using X-Men leader. That character was a soldier in the allied force that liberated the concentration camps. The professor meets Magneto after the war and while they bond over the realisation that they are alike in their special powers, their differences soon turn them into enemies.


The sooner they release this Magneto movie the better it is! I know they’re thinking about making a movie titled X-Men First Class, well, please do Magneto first!

David Goyer Magneto Movie Synopsis

X-Men Origins: Magneto MovieDirector David Goyer is set to work on a Magneto movie. No release date yet though, as the movie has not even kicked in production. But the screenplay has already been drafted by Scriptwriter Sheldon Turner. That’s why we may nonetheless have an official synopsis of this Magneto movie:

Magneto Plot Synopsis

This setup will allow a future villain to at least flirt with the designation of protagonist since the character will be seen almost exclusively in his formative years.

The professor meets Magneto after the war and while they bond over the realisation that they are alike in their special powers, their differences soon turn them into enemies.

Unfortunately the movie Magneto is in stand by for now because Fox can’t devote resources to a new project until Wolverine is out. Too bad Marvel can’t take back the rights of the Magneto movie! But if Fox keep postponing it, Marvel will get it back around 2012 (would be sad to have to wait so long though…).

Let’s hope there will be some crossover between the upcoming Wolverine movie and Magneto. I pray for Fox to learn from Marvel’s success!

Magneto Movie in 2009

A Magneto is expected for the end of 2009. The Magneto movie would recounts the life of the young Magneto, how he met Xavier, and how he became the mutant juggernaut.

And according to a rumor there would be a young version of the Beast too in Magneto the movie!

Magneto, Charles Xavier and the BeastJust hope they won’t be shown as babies:

I don’t care that much about the Beast. Just want to watch a feature Magneto movie!
