James McAvoy’s Professor X having a pivotal role in DARK PHOENIX is a given, but the question on everyone’s mind is if Michael Fassbender will return as Magneto. According to MTV’s Josh Horowitz, we should “bet big” on him coming back as the ever-conflicted and passionate Erik Lehnsherr.
Want to know Fassbender's X-MEN future? Bet big on him appearing in DARK PHOENIX but not NEW MUTANTS. Oh, I just saw Michael Fassbender BTW

But apparently not for director Josh Boone’s upcoming X-Men spin-off THE NEW MUTANTS, which doesn’t seem to feature McAvoy either, if The Hollywood Reporter’s Borys Kit is to be believed.
On NEW MUTANTS: other rumored castings – James McAvoy as Prof X – not true. He is not in movie, per sources.

Mystique actress Jennifer Lawrence previously said she would consider coming back if McAvoy and Fassbender were in the mix, so is she on board as well? We’ll find out soon enough as filming begins this Summer in Montreal for theatrical release on November 2, 2018.
i saw this men Michael Fassbender in lots of diferent Movies so he is a tought men because i saw the treiler of Creed and lots of movies from him so is very difficult to know if he coming back or not
