There’s a lot of talk this week about the possibility of even more X-Men spin-off movies heading our way really soon. We already know that there are Wolverine and Magneto prequels in the works, but with so many characters to choose from, it only makes sense that they might be considering other solo origin flicks. What makes even more sense, however, is the fact that they’re looking to produce them on the cheap and release them direct to DVD. The question is, will these kinds of movies tarnish the Marvel name and disappoint fans of certain second-string characters? I guess it all depends what characters they are considering for these straight to video affairs.

There is a rumour going around right now that Joe Carnahan may be involved in directing a Juggernaut prequel — all because he posted a picture of Juggernaut on his personal blog. I’m not sure if that’s enough evidence for me to believe it just yet, but I will say that Vinnie Jones is the kind of guy I can see starring in one of these DTV flicks. So is anyone interested in a Juggernaut prequel? I know he’s supposed to be Xavier’s half-brother, but something tells me Patrick Stewart would not make an appearance. Which other X-Men would be suitable for a movie like this?
