Kit Connor is reportedly being lined up to play Cyclops in Marvel Studios‘ upcoming X-Men reboot. According to Deadline, he’s the leading choice to play Scott Summers, better known as Cyclops, as Marvel assembles a new cast of mutants for the Jake Schreier-directed film. If cast, Connor would follow his Heartstopper co-star Joe Locke into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marsden is set to reprise Cyclops in the forthcoming Avengers: Doomsday, alongside several other returning X-Men stars, including Patrick Stewart as Professor X and Ian McKellen as Magneto. Marvel Studios declined to comment to Deadline on the reported casting.
