Now that Beast has gone full fascism and is basically the Henry Kissinger/Richard Helms of Krakoa, having a high-profile, scandal-ridden Hollywood conservative play him was, and would continue to be, the ideal marriage of character and actor.

The last time I took notice of the X-Men franchise (I burned out during the "who fucked who" soap opera between Wolverine/Cyclops/Jean Grey), Beast was like the ultimate liberal. Was he scratched recently?
Since the establishment of the mutant nation of Krakow, Beast has assumed a leadership of X-Force, Krakoa's version of the CIA. Since then he's committed literal genocide, made sex holograms in the Danger Room, and most recently allowed Wolverine to die so that he can be remade into a mindless killing machine.
And as for the Jean/Scott/Logan thing, they live as a polycule on the moon now.
Is this at the same time? :what-the-hell:
The moon was first, the latter is a very recent development.
I've never been more glad I stopped keeping track of that story. :kombucha-disgust:
