Michael's accent always seems to appear slighty in all the movies I've seen except for 12 years which I felt his performance was forced. ( just my opinion).
I think his most convincing and best performance was Hunger.So I think he should pass on this role.

Hunger is my McQueen's favourite one,maybe Michael's favourite performance among his collaborations with Steve. Epps could have been easily a caricature,considering the script,while in my opinion he succeds in conveying an emotional complexity throughout a very physical performance. But I understand why this contrast between moments of in which he seems to throw his body completely into it and moments of surreal stillness could be perceived as forced. I've really liked McConaughey's work in the last few years,but I've still some doubts about his range.

About Bale and Leo passing the role, we don't know why they did it for sure but it doesn't mean that the script is bad. Like I said before, Michael can totally do it but I don't know if he has the time to. It's a role that demands A LOT of preparation and it seems that Sony plans to release it in the end of 2015. In the first case, he will finish TLBO in the end of November I think so he would have too little time to prepare for it. In the last case, I think that Michael has Slow West and Macbeth to promote in the end of 2015 and if everything goes as planned with Macbeth, he will definitely go for Oscar's race. I don't know if Weinstein and Sony wanna fight for the same spot with the same actor. Unless Jobs comes out only in 2016, then it would be fine.

I think it will come out in 2016,but yes,it seems that he has too little time to prepare for it. I've read that Jeff Snider of The Wrap had been hearing rumors that Jobs' wife had been calling actors asking them to pass on the movie..:wondering I don't know if it's true. Sorkin said that Jobs asked for his help to write his commencement address at Stanford,I suppose their relationship was good.

I love Michael in all films he did with McQueen. ALL. He was amazing in Hunger, Shame and 12 Years A Slave. I wanted to kill him on that scene in which he spanks Nyongo's character and her soap falls of her hand. It was the first time I ever cried on a theatre LoL

Really? It seems these are just rumours...but I don't know. Let's wait and see.

I'm not really sure about the Magneto/Mystique thing. The bromance/love affair has always been between Charles and Erik. You could cut the tension between the two with a knife in that scene on the plane in DOFP.

Thanks for the pic! When is TLBO wrapping up? The end of this month?

I thought the next film would focus on more action and the battle with Apocalypse. I agree with you that the scenes between Michael and James are quite good and they have an amazing chemistry together but let's see what they will do with Magneto/Mistique. Maybe it will be something nice ;)

Few more weeks to go maybe
As for Magneto/Mystique pairing, I don't know about that. I prefer the Charles/Magneto dynamic, cant beat that chemistry. IF they are gonna focus on Mystique and Magneto I hope not too much. Still wanna see Charles and Magneto plus Apocalypse. Maybe its because Jennifer and Nicholas broke up they decided to change course, who knows. But who cares, let them be uncomfortable lol

Huum thanks! It probably wraps in November. I hope Michael attends BIFA in December. Do you think he'll go?

I think they might give to Magneto/Mystique the same focus they gave on the first X-Men. Not something exaggerated but nice. His tension with Charles will probably be there too, we can be sure of that ;)

I was thinking the same actually. The breakup with Nick Hoult, has caused a change in direction of the characters who will be romantically linked.
It was definitely reported earlier that the focus was on Mystique and Beast. She has probably said she doesn't want to work with Nick on romantic scenes.

It probably was not the amicable split they have made out it was, I heard (rumored) that he broke it off and she tried to briefly win him back.

Yeah, that's a possibility. But I agree with this new focus on Erik and Raven instead of Raven and the Beast just because J-Law and Hoult were dating. I mean, their characters had something in the first movie but with Magneto was much more intense.

Is this a music studio??? He was there to record something or was he just hanging out? He could release a song because I LOVED his songs in Frank LoL :cool:

About the messy hair...OMG, so cute! Like him at the Comic Con last year. Look how big are his arms LoL
