Casting Reportedly Underway for 'X-Men: New Mutants'

HaydnSpurrell HaydnSpurrell With Fox's New Mutants film starring to drop a little bit of news, thanks to an animatic revealed online, Comingsoon has brought with that some potential casting news.

Nat Wolff is reportedly being eyed for the role of Sam Guthrie, also knownw as Cannonball. Wolff has made his name through Paper Towns and The Fault in Our Stars, and is leading the upcoming 2017 anime adaptation Death Note.

The character Guthrie was one of the founding members of the New Mutants, which act as sort of the Teen Titans of the X-Men universe. The name Cannonball reflects his ability to fly with a jet of fire at high speeds. He is invulnerable in flight, but is as mortal as the rest of us when he stops.

The only official news that we've learned, however, is that Boone is directing, and the most recent draft was co-written by him with Knate Lee and Scott Neustadter & Michael H. Weber.
