Professor X Could ‘Absolutely’ Appear in FX’s ‘Legion’
Logan was the perfect ending for Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine as well as for Sir Patrick Stewart’s Professor Charles Xavier as well. Stewart has been very vocal about this being the last time we’ll see him in a wheelchair on-screen and had no problem reiterating his reasoning on James Corden’s late night talk show.
“There will never be a more perfect time, a more appropriate time to say thank you and goodbye to this franchise,”
Stewart said as the crowd began “awww”. However, he left a small window of opportunity open for fans to see him portray one of the world’s most powerful mutants yet again.
“However! Someone has mentioned Professor X in Deadpool…that’s not for me to say”
Then, fellow guest star, Dan Stevens who plays the titular character in Legion asks:
“What about professor x in Legion…In the comic universe Sir Patrick plays my father”
when asked “are you in?” by James Corden, Stewart exclaimed:
“Absolutely!”
