Only 3 were cast well within this franchise...Stewart and the 2nd choice with Jackman; Raven Darkholme was good as well. Magneto....Ok, but the guy who's Adam and his twin on that All My Kiddies soap (I've got chatty relatives) would have been a good (and cheaper) choice. Rogue's actress was too young (she has grown a bit), and the others were salary caps. Halle, though beautiful, was miscast.
Director, script with the comic book as a true guide, and a better choice of cast members will aid to resurrect this. Otherwise, put it to bed and find other worthy Marvel comics. The Claremont stories were excellent....
