Tuesday round-up: Magneto and Wolverine, Bond, Tron and Doctor Who

X-Men 3 may have been sub-titled The Last Stand, but we never really thought that would mean the end of the X-franchise. Today Digital Spy has given an update on the two spin-off movies, Magneto and Wolverine. The story says that, according to Obsessed with Film, the David Goyer-directed Magneto will be set in the same period as the first three X-films (something as a surprise, seeing as the entire world thought it was a prequel), will feature Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen and allow returns for Creed, Mystique and Senator Kelly. Meanwhile, the Wolverine movie is set to start shooting in November, with Tsotsi director Gavin Hood at the helm.

Over at SCI FI Wire you can read about a proposed “next chapter” in the Tron saga. Ad director Joseph Kosinski (who’s just been signed up for the Logan’s Run remake that was once on Bryan Singer’s “to do” list) is apparently in final negotiations for the gig.
