I never shot anything . I call back having a conversation with people : I ’m a huge mirthful book fan , specially of theX - MenandThe New Mutants , so I was excited to be considered . But these conversations occur and then life intervenes .
Jon Hamm ’s introduction as Mister SinisterinThe New Mutantswould have provided the complete wage - off after age of Fox teasing the villain . Apocalypseended with the Essex Corp acquiring Wolverine ’s blood , and this organisation , named after Nathaniel Essex , Sinister ’s human identity , reappeared in subsequent motion-picture show leading up toThe New Mutants . Jon Hamm would have been perfect in this role , which made it even more of a shame that he never got to showcase his talents as the memorable ten - Men villain , but Marvel Studios could revive his chances as Mister Sinister in the MCU .
Marvel’s X-Men is the tentative title for the future debut of the legendary Marvel mutant superhero team in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

There were a fate of conversations , and I ’m still in those . I talk to the guys that run Marvel and DC . And I ’m a comic rule book swot . So , we ’ll see . Even that part of the industriousness is alter … I ’ve pitched myself for a couple role of the Marvel Universe , I do n’t require to say what on the nose , but it was a part of a mirthful playscript that I really liked . I was like , “ Are you going to do this storey ? ” And they were like , “ Yeah , we ’re really thinking of that . ” I go , “ skillful . I should be the bozo . ” So maybe it ’ll work out .
