First up, I’m going to be careful here and say that there be spoilers here. Not major character spoilers as they aren’t naming which characters, but big references to the script. So you may not realise who, but you’ll know some big what’s.
Suffice to say that Avi Arad has some serious plans for X-Men 3, now this may be Matthew Vaughn’s six day take on the script, or it may be the overarching direction of the story. Whichever it’s pretty strong stuff.

According to Comic Book Movie, this is what AICN are claiming that Avi Arad has in store for the X-Men 3:
“And Avi Arad wasn’t kidding when he called the film controversial, either. Three major characters that absolutely should not die, die. Really dead, too. Not Spock Dead. And one mutant who should not lose her powers, loses her powers permanently. Really loses them, too. Not Superman II loses them. And the sex scene… when you see who does what to who… oh, boy. The entire X-Men universe may face some incredible overhauls, and it’s going to be fascinating to see what fandom does when faced with this stuff.”
Wow! My head is going wild with what it could be, and I’m really trying not to figure it all out beforehand, but I can’t help it! That’s the problem about writing about movies, you find out too much!
This could be the Vaughn script though, and the next Director along will have it rewritten, that is a strong possibility, but still. Major deaths? Big power loss? Sex?!
Get discussing, and since we’ve warned everyone about spoilers before entering, you’re in a spoiler open environment for X-Men 3.
