Cyclops cast for XMen Origins: Wolverine
A little tidbit about X-Men Origins: Wolverine reveals that Scott Summers (Cyclops) and Logan may have crossed paths. This was hinted since the role of Scott Summers has been cast and filled by an unknown Tim Pocock
SuperheroHype has:
Australian actor Tim Pocock listed as playing Scott Summers (Cyclops) in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.‘A1ant’ then followed-up with the agency who confirmed the casting. “Yes, that information is correct. He was cast as the younger Scott Summers,” they said.
Now this could mean that Wolverine tripped over a younger Scott Summers before and didn’t really meet him.
Scott could be leaving a taxi as Wolverine hops in. It’s all vague at this point.
I would wager on the cameo since the actor hired is a complete unknown, and that they would have a hard time explaining why Scott didn’t make reference to it in the subsequent X-Men films.
At very least it shows that the creators are attempting to continue the tradition of name dropping in the XFilms.

i doubt that. this is a origin movie and the lack of action from the last x-men movies will carry on to this one in cyclops case.
and hes a younger cyclops, what you and the rest of us should be hoping for is for wolverene to have good action scenes specially in the potential deadpol fight scenes.

it does seem that way. cyclops has always taken it up the ass from logan, why should it be any different now??

WTF??? If this is an Origins movie then this is lame…there is no Scott in Wolvie’s background ….good grief, are they trying to make this movie stupid?? Okay, I might be over reacting. We’ll have to just wait and see.

I love The Wolverine story but this movie is going to be so bad. All the cameos are going to ruin it they won’t have time to explain a set story, because they will be to busy explaining everyone elses story

I’ve never been too excited about this movie.
I loved X-Men because of the large number of heroes and seeing all their powers on the big screen. That’s what X-Men is, lots of powers.
A movie just about Wolverine seems boring, I know he is the most popular but I just can’t get excited about his origin story.
But now with all these other mutants coming on the scene, I am more interested yet wondering what their goal is in this flick.
