Twentieth Century Fox has picked Sheldon Turner to draft "Magneto," an action-thriller spin-off based on the villainous character played in the first two "X-Men" films by Ian McKellen according to Variety. This would be the third "X-Men" movie project currently in development alongside a third "X-Men" penned by Simon Kinberg and a separate "Wolverine" spin-off by "Troy" scribe David Benioff. Turner recently scripted the Adam Sandler remake of "The Longest Yard," rewrote "The Amityville Horror" and drafted a prequel to "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre." The film will be a prequel as such to the first "X-Men" film and start off around that film's prologue which showed him as a child being led to a concentration camp by Nazis. As the character will be young, it's not clear whether McKellen will be in the film at all. The storyline will heavily involve Professor X who 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 realization that they are alike in their special powers, their differences soon turn them into enemies. |
