Michael Fassbender In X-Men First Class & Spider-Man?


ShowBiz411 is reporting that actor Michael Fassbender (Inglourious Basterds) is rumored for roles in both X-Men First Class and the Spider-Man reboot. While they name the role for the X-Men prequel a young Magneto which I assumed would go to Aaron Johnson (who I believe now could be playing Gambit). They only know the Spider-Man role will be a villain. The biggest issue would be that Fassbender has other possible projects like The Women In Black written by First Class writer Jane Goldman. He's also in talks for the spy thriller Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. So Michael will have to pick one or the other to be able to commit to his other films.


It might be a Spider-Man villain we haven't seen yet. Possibly it could be Mysterio, Kraven The Hunter or even Electro. I figure it would be someone we hven't seen on screen before but they could always recycle previous villains.
