"The Pianist meets X-Men."


December 13, 2004 - Variety reports that Magneto, the villain of the X-Men movies, will be spun-off in his own "action-thriller," courtesy of 20th Century Fox. Sheldon Turner (The Longest Yard) will pen the script. X-Men vets Lauren Shuler Donner and Avi Arad will likely produce. Magneto joins Wolverine in development even as X-Men 3 continues to be written.

Magneto will center on the Master of Magnetism's formative years and will "heavily involve" Professor Charles Xavier. Since it will be an "early years" pic, it is uncertain whether either Ian McKellen or Patrick Stewart – who portrayed Magneto or Professor X in the X-Men movies – will be involved.

Turner reportedly isn't a comics buff but "sparked to Magneto" after being asked by Fox to read some Marvel Comics that might make for a good movie.

Magneto's years as a Holocaust victim and survivor will be explored, a time when Xavier "was a soldier in the allied force that liberated the concentration camps. The professor meets Magneto after the war, and while they bond over the realization that they are alike in their special powers, their differences soon turn them into enemies."

"I pitched a film that is almost The Pianist meets X-Men, about a guy who, after watching his family slaughtered, has an awakening of his powers and seeks revenge," Turner advised Variety.
