While on a visit today to the creature effects shop for Hellboy II: The Golden Army I noticed some pictures that were lying around for other movies like Land of the Lost and of course, Hellboy II: The Golden Army.
But I also noticed a photograph of a young looking Beast leaping through the air. Not a drawing, although it could have been computer generated, but an actual photo.
"What's this?"
"This is young Beast from the prequel they're gonna be doing. Magneto."
"Oh, ok." I replied, trying to act calm before my head exploded from seeing this picture. "So Beast is in Magneto, huh?"
"Ya."
The picture showed a younger guy in the Beast getup leaping down. He was in the full blue costume with his long tail and you couldn't mistake him for anything other than Beast. The picture also had 'Magneto' written in the upper corner. Like I said, I was only able to see it for a few seconds, but it did not look like a computer rendered picture, it looked like an actor in full makeup. Nevertheless, Beast IS in the movie.
**UPDATE** EVERYONE keeps e-mailing me saying it's probably Nightcrawler and not Beast. He had a tail in the pic and the guy said it was Beast. He even looked like Beast right when I saw the picture, and I have the audio of him saying Beast and not Nightcrawler. Maybe he got them mixed up, but I'm only reporting what I was told and saw.
Please people. I know Beast doesn't have a tail. You can stop e-mailing me that nerd fact. Any conceptual drawing or work done on a film in pre-production is bound to change multiple times before it's finalized. I already had this info confirmed with the company. They have done zero work on Nightcrawler.
Unfortunately I couldn't take a picture of ANY of this stuff because there were a lot of drawings and photos from Land of the Lost there as well. But this Beast information is awesome. Who else will be in the Magneto film? What other younger X-Men could make an appearance and what role could The Beast have?
