X-Men star Sir Ian McKellen has said he is too old to return for a fourth movie in the superhero series
X-Men star Sir Ian McKellen has said he is too old to return for a fourth movie in the superhero series.
The 70-year-old played the part of villain Magneto in the previous three movies but he said it is unlikely that he will take part in a fourth installment.
It is claimed that a fourth movie would be a prequel to the original three films and would focus on the younger life of Magneto.
Talking about a fourth film, he said to Empire magazine: “I suspect it wouldn’t involve me.
“I think it would be about the younger Magneto. They can’t have someone whose face is as lined as mine any longer.”
A spin-off film X-Men Origins: Wolverine was released earlier this year featuring the earlier life of Wolverine.
