According to
Comics Continuum, two second-fiddle "X-Men" players will pop up in FOX's "Fantastic Four" movie.
Brian Cox and Bruce Davison will reprise their roles - Cox only appeared in "X Men 2" - as William Styler and President Kenna, ah, via PhotoShop.
Says the site, "The Fantastic Four movie will have a little nod to the X-Men franchise, it was revealed during the recent press tour of the sets in Vancouver, British Columbia.
A photograph in the office of Victor von Doom shows him meeting with two dignitaries in the White House: President McKenna and William Stryker from X2.
Associate producer David Gorder explained that the photograph is from X2, with Doom replacing Senator Kelly via Photoshop.
Gorder said that using the X2 characters -- who, like the Fantastic Four, are licensed to 20th Century Fox -- was easier than to try to get the real president and provides a nice Easter Egg for moviegoers.
It's a bit of reciprocation. X2 had a nod to Fantastic Four, when Franklin Richards' name was shown when Mystique hacked into Stryker's data base."
And apparently Reed Richards is going to wear Mystique's underwear.
Or Not.
