Monaghan is Beak in Wolverine

February 21, 2008

Just Jared reports that former "Lost" star Dominic Monaghan will play Barnell Bohusk (AKA Beak) in 20th Century Fox's X-Men: Wolverine. Here's a description of the character:

Beak was a mutant whose bones were light and hollow. His arms had begun to grow feathers, which when fully formed, may have allowed him to fly. He could at the mean time glide and fly for short distances with great effort. Beak also had enhanced eyesight along with talons on his hands and feet. Even though Beak had bird-like qualities, it was extremely difficult for him to fly.

He'll be joining Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Liev Schreiber (Sabretooth), Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool), Taylor Kitsch (Gambit), Will.i.am (Kestrel), Danny Huston (William Stryker) and Lynn Collins (Silver Fox) in the Gavin Hood-directed pic, opening May 1, 2009.

I really think there are going to be way too many "cameos" of other mutants... Its WOLVERINE

Since when was Ryan Reynolds in this flick? I thought the Deadpool rumour was his own flim.

ok... thats enough other mutants. this is supposed to be a movie about Wolverine's origin. i understand if they are throwing in other mutants that will make some appearance from being part of the Weapon X program in some way and having some extra just for fun, but the list must stop now.

It might be a story based on Wolverines origins, but its also set it a world full of mutants.
Maybe Wolves escapes the weapons x programme and takes refuge with mutants, hence the reason why so many are making cameos.

and Bruce Willis as the kitchen sink. Too many cameos if you ask me.

where's Lady Deathstrike? I also thought the Silver Samurai was supposed to be in this flick. How they would have pulled that off I don't know but it would have been cool to see. And Wolverine is supposed to have some sort of relationship with Yuriko aka Lady Deathstrike early on during the Weapon X project. Why wasn't Tyler Mane brought back as Sabertooth?

i'm kind of afraid this is gonna become X-men 1 redux, with a shizload of mutant sidelined by a story about 1 or two. awesome for some, but a bit bogged down by over-saturation of characters. the sheer number of characters already revealed make it sound like they're building a new team around Wolverine for the film... which would be annoying. part of the intrigue of the character imho is the loner-aspect.
-my 2 cents
