Movie Tea: Nicholas Hoult Addresses Kelsey Grammer’s Return As Beast; Script For “Batman II” Finally Complete

We are once again delving into the world of superheroes, as rumblings from both Marvel and DC are shaking things up!

Here’s what you need to know to keep yourself up to date on upcoming movies out of Hollywood.

Nicholas Hoult Opens Up About Kelsey Grammer’s Return in “Avengers: Doomsday”

Ever since the announcement of “Avengers: Doomsday”, alongside the cast reveal, many have been absolutely hyped for the cinematic event. Not only did it confirm the return of the most familiar faces in the current MCU, but it also confirmed the return of many actors from the Fox Marvel movies!

One of those returning Fox faces is none other than Kelsey Grammer, who is largely known for his depiction of Beast in the “X-Men” series back in the early 2000s. He is, of course, joined by other legends of his era, such as Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart. Naturally, many of the more recent actors of the same legendary characters, such as James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender, have taken a step back to watch the OGs do their thing, but one of them decided to give a piece of their mind about this move and it’s none other than Nicholas Hoult, the most recent actor for Beast.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the actor discussed the news of Grammer returning to his role of Beast. In it, he fully confirmed that he will not be returning at all for Phase 6 of the MCU. He then added that he is “excited” to see Kelsey don the blue make-up.

“Kelsey was a great Beast,” said Nicholas Hoult. “He was the Beast I saw when I was a kid, along with the other actors that they’re bringing back, Patrick and Ian and James and all them. Those were the characters that I got to watch in X-Men movies. I’m excited to see what they do with it. It’ll be fun to see how they incorporate those characters into that world.”

Though it is saddening to know that Hoult will not be returning to the MCU anytime soon, it is quite understandable as to why. There’s no denying that names such as James Marsden, Rebecca Romijn, and Alan Cumming have a more potent nostalgia factor when it comes to older fans and have a greater legacy compared to the “X-Men” prequel stars. It is also worth mentioning that the series’ last film, “Dark Phoenix”, ended with more of a whimper rather than a triumphant roar before Fox was ultimately acquired by Disney, ending the series entirely.

However, hope is not lost yet, as Hoult has yet to have any discussion with Marvel. Though the possibility of him returning is unlikely, it is not impossible. Remember: as grand as “Avengers: Doomsday” is, it is still a precursor to “Avengers: Secret Wars”, and Disney is simply keeping the prequel stars as an ace in their back pockets.

Matt Reeves & Mattson Tomlin Complete “The Batman: Part II” Script

After almost three and a half years, Matt Reeves has finally completed the script for Robert Pattinson’s “The Batman”. Yes, it is quite hard to believe after so many delays and pushbacks, but it is real this time. And the proof can be found in Matt Reeves’ official X post, where he and co-writer Mattson Tomlin can be seen in the background with the completed script taking centre stage.

Of course, even though the script has been officially penned, we still have no info about what it contains. Naturally, coming out fresh from the oven, the two writers have not yet decided or locked in on any other new casting that we might see for this upcoming sequel.

Pair this up with the release of James Gunn’s “Superman” being just around the corner, and we can’t help but feel or hope for a potential crossover event between these two DC titans! Of course, we still need to see how things shake out before we start daydreaming about any collaboration movies. We’ll get to see the Caped Crusader swing into cinemas again on 1st October, 2027.
