Former Magneto actor Michael Fassbender has finally addressed the rumors of someone taking over the role from him when the MCU casts its version of the X-Men. Fassbender portrayed Magneto four times in the Fox X-Men franchise, first in X-Men: First Class (2011) before also assuming the role in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014), X-Men: Apocalypse (2016), and X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019). There have been plenty of rumors and speculation about who could take over the mantle from Fassbender in the next stage of the X-Men, with arguably the biggest name attached to the role being Denzel Washington. There is no concrete evidence to this rumor, but during a recent interview with the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Fassbender shared his excitement for whoever lands the role next:
“I think it’s great, I’m excited to see who does it.”
Fassbender then weighed in on the rumors of Washington being the one to take over the role:
“[Denzel Washington] as Magneto? I mean, brilliant, he’s a heavyweight. I don’t even think I could pass the baton [laughs]. He’s incredible!”
