There still remains much that is unknown about the film, however. Aside from Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart reprising their respective roles as Logan/Wolverine and Charles Xavier/Professor X, no characters have been revealed until today’s announcement that The Reavers will be appearing in the movie. Several cast members, however, have been identified, with Boyd Holbrook and Richard E. Grant, who is set to play one of the villains in the project, both being involved in The Wolverine 3.

Other reports claim that there is a possibility that Liev Schreiber will return in the role of Sabretooth, although such claims cannot be confirmed at this time:

For those of you unfamiliar with the team, they’re a group of cyborgs (including the likes of Lady Deathstrike and Skullbuster) that are best known for their criminal activity, and their hatred of mutants. The site goes on to speculate that it could be Grant who is playing their leader, Donald Pierce. Beyond that, they throw out some theories that both the Hellfire Club or Essex Corp. could be the “global enterprise” backing them, but nothing beyond the fact that Wolverine will fight the Reavers appears to be concrete information as of right now. Regardless, this is an interesting choice of villains.

**** We hired Reggie, fulfilled our obligations to him, and he quit in the middle of covering two TV series w/ no notice and no explanation. He then ignored our emails asking him to complete his coverage (we had no one else to cover those TV shows). He didn't care. We regret hiring him and we regret putting our trust in him. **** An aspiring writer, longtime film junkie, and former UCLARadio.com disc jockey (where I graduated with a BA in Political Science), I've made the jump from penning book reviews and current events editorials for HonorSociety.org to writing movie and TV news and reviews. When I'm not working towards my certificate in Radio and Television/Video Production at Fullerton College, I enjoy reading (horror, science fiction, and historical/political nonfiction are particular favorites), participating in my school's TV and theatre clubs, attending movie screenings, plays, concerts, and other events, and trying to come up with pithy things to say on social media. Believe it or not, there are occasions where I find time to write for my own leisure.
