Fans speculate: James Marsden hints at Cyclops cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine

Mar 15, 2024 8:43 PM

Fans are buzzing with excitement as speculation builds around James Marsden possibly reprising his role as Cyclops in the upcoming "Deadpool & Wolverine" movie. After a recent interview about his work on "Sonic the Hedgehog 3," Marsden mentioned working near the "Deadpool 3" stages, which fans have interpreted as a hint towards his cameo in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. His non-committal responses have stirred the Marvel community, with many expressing enthusiasm over the potential return of Marsden's Cyclops, especially considering the already announced surprise appearances in the movie—including Hugh Jackman's Wolverine.

"Deadpool and Wolverine" is set to release on July 26, 2024, and it promises to feature a variety of superhero cameos. As anticipation grows, discussions around how Deadpool and Cyclops would interact have surfaced, though Marsden playfully refrained from confirming any details. This crossover event follows Disney's acquisition of 21st Century Fox, positioning it as a marquee moment for fans hoping to see legacy X-Men characters converge within the MCU.

Is James Marsden returning as Cyclops in the new Deadpool movie?

While James Marsden's recent remarks have led to speculation about his return as Cyclops in "Deadpool & Wolverine," there has been no official confirmation of his involvement in the film. The actor's comments have intensified fan theories and excitement, but audiences will likely have to wait for more concrete information as the movie's release date approaches.

The character of Cyclops, portrayed by James Marsden, first appeared in "X-Men" (2000) and became a prominent figure in the series. With appearances in several sequels, including a notable role in "X-Men: Days of Future Past" (2014), Cyclops became a fan favorite. Marsden's potential re-entry into the X-Men universe with "Deadpool & Wolverine" would bridge the gap between the original films and the current MCU, fitting into a larger trend of legacy characters returning to the screen under Marvel Studios' direction.
