The Oregonian recently spoke with Professor Xavier actor Sir Patrick Stewart about his work and the actor revealed some interesting details about his and Sir Ian McKellen’s future involvement in the X-Men franchise.

“I understand that it seems to be very unlikely that I will be in the next “X-Men” movie, which is about to start shooting in Montreal,” says Stewart about X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. “But Magneto, Ian McKellen, is certainly going to be in it.”

Stewart surprisingly revealed that he’ll likely appear alongside Hugh Jackman in James Mangold’s next WOLV3RINE film, teasing “…what I’m very excited about is that we have been talking about a Wolverine movie, which would team Hugh Jackman and myself together. Wolverine and Professor Xavier. That would be a very different sort of “X-Men” from the four movies that I’ve already done.”
