Deadpool & Wolverine Director Says Professor X Cameo Was ‘Never Considered’

Share :

Despite the many, many cameos in Deadpool & Wolverine, director Shawn Levy has confirmed that Patrick Stewart’s Charles Xavier was never even considered for the movie. As the titular heroes, played by Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, respectively, join the MCU, Deadpool & Wolverine bid farewell to the X-Men’s tenure under the 20th Century Fox banner. The film features hundreds of nods, jokes, and Easter eggs about the old X-Men franchise. But fans were disappointed that Professor Charles Xavier, one of the most popular X-Men (second to Jackman’s Wolverine), didn’t make an appearance.
