Michael Fassbender up for both "Spider-man" and "X-Men" | Filmonic

Michael Fassbender is a wanted man over at Marvel studios.

Matthew Vaughn is apparently interested in having Fassbender play a young Magneto in X-Men: First Class, while Sony is keen on signing the actor up as the new villain in the Spider-Man reboot.

If audiences accept the new Spider-Man as well as the previous trilogy then Fassbender will be seen by a lot more eyeballs, and he may get a bigger paycheck if the film reaches the same $800 million heights as before. However, the trend for Spidey villains is that they meet their demise towards the end of the film, so it may only be a one film deal for Fassbender.

With X-Men: First Class, apart from being almost perfect for the part, Fassbender may get to appear in future sequels which he may find attractive. Magneto is also a lead character alongside James McAvoy’s Charles Xavier, so this will be Fassbender first major leading role in a blockbuster.

Which film do you think Fassbender would be best suited for?

Promo Poster and Synopsis for Steve McQueen’s SHAME Starring Michael Fassbender

Next up from the American Film Market (AFM) is Steve McQueen’s Shame. The film is the follow-up to McQueen’s BAFTA-nominated Hunger, and reunites the director with actor Michael Fassbender (Inglourious Basterds). And just to be clear, this is NOT the Steve McQueen (Bullitt, The Great Escape) who died in 1980.

Here’s the bare-bones synopsis for Shame:

Brandon (Michael Fassbender, Inglourious Basterds, Hunger, A Dangerous Method) is a 30-something man living in New York who is unable to manage his sex life. After his wayward younger sister moves into his apartment, Brandon’s world spirals out of control.

From director Steve McQueen (Hunger), Shame is a compelling and timely examination of the nature of need, how we live our lives and the experiences that shape us.
