(This may also be a bad sign for X-Men fans who wanted more Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, or Jennifer Lawrence in the MCU.) We may see Charles Xavier again in future projects tied to the multiverse, but it may be someone else donning that famous bald cap. Perhaps the MCU is making room for a new cohort of X-Men actors that can play characters for the next decade or two of content phases. There are a couple of reasons why Professor X, who in the comics and in the Fox movies goes up against some of the toughest X-Men and villains around (both with his brains and his psychokinetic brawns), might be getting “offed” by Scarlet Witch in Doctor Strange 2. Just as commenters theorized that the golden hoverchair is what makes Professor X supposedly “look dumb” in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, commenters also guessed that maybe the reason why the extraordinary mutant leader isn’t portrayed favorably is that he’s effortlessly offed by Wanda Maximoff. Wanda Maximoff appears to be a key villain in Doctor Strange 2. This is the furthest thing from confirmation, and besides, the special effects for a movie like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness are often in development until days before release. for evidence.)įans bummed about the prospect of a hovering, rather than rolling, Professor X do have to keep in mind though that this affirmation is a stretch at best. (Look no further than Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K. The bad news is that, yeah, by definition: hover chairs are a little too over-the-top and Jetsons-y to be taken seriously, especially in live-action.
The hoverchair was directly integrated with Cerebro (Xavier’s telepathy-enhancing headgear), has a secret compartment containing a laser blaster, and even had a built-in communication device - you know, in case Professor X’s telepathy failed “leak” was quickly inundated by comments, speculating that the golden hoverchair may be what looks dumb. It’s no floating Tesla, but in the cartoon, the hoverchair, which debuted in a 1991 X-Men comic just a year before the animated series arrived on television, offers plenty of special features Patrick Stewart could never dream of. Listen, the golden hoverchair is clunky and silly, but in the ‘90s X-Men cartoon- one of Marvel’s longest-running animated series - Charles Xavier opts for a futuristic levitating ride rather than the sleek wheelchair we see Stewart badassing around in throughout the Fox films.
