Talking about his character in the upcoming Doctor Strange, Patrick Stewart said, “This is a very delicate area… All I can say to you is we’ll have to see. But bear in mind that Professor Xavier has already died twice. I think he must have some sort of Superman quality.”
Patrick’s character of Xavier has been killed twice in the Marvel Cinematic Universe; once in X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) and then in Logan (2017).
Initially, the X-Men actor politely declined the rumours of him starring in the upcoming Marvel flick until recently. It was in an interview with Jake Hamilton, he spoke about his character and said, “Professor X would be extraordinarily cautious and watchful, and perhaps feel a little insecure because there is something that is potentially dangerous about this man. I think that would put Professor Xavier on guard.”
Meanwhile, Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness releases on May 6th, 2022.
