‘X-Men’ Rumor: Jesse Plemons Eyed To Play Beast In The MCU

Does the MCU finally have its actor for the beloved Beast? A new rumor suggests Jesse Plemons is being eyed to join the upcoming X-Men reboot.

Plemons has long been a favorite to take on the mantle of Hank McCoy, with the actor best known for his roles in projects like Breaking Bad and Civil War. The rumor that Jesse Plemons is playing Beast may come as a shock to fans who saw Kelsey Grammer make his return as the cobalt Magilla Gorilla. Rather, he’ll appear alongside other old X-Men for a small role in the ending of the MCU’s Multiverse Saga, before passing off his paws one final time to a younger actor like Plemons.
