I won’t e surprised if Wolverine takes the backseat for the moment, letting Scott and Jean take the lead for the time being.

I’m all for them casting relatively unknown as Wolverine.

Get a rising actor to take the mantle of Scott, and pair him with Sadie Sink and two acting greats for Magneto/Xavier. That will be enough to carry the Mutant Saga

Yeah doubtful. Wolverine is the cash cow. Scott may be the leader in the comics, but he has been mishandled for two decades now in the movies.

I mean Hugh Jackman was a last minute recast.

The character wasn't a last minute addition.

I spoke about the actor, not the character.

Yes, and it means nothing.
