List of X-Men films cast members
The following is a list of cast members who have portrayed characters appearing in the X-Men film series, based upon the Marvel Comics superhero team of the same name and its related characters.
The first three films in the series are X-Men (2000), X2 (2003), and X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), starring Hugh Jackman as Logan / Wolverine, Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier / Professor X, Ian McKellen as Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto, Famke Janssen as Jean Grey, Halle Berry as Storm, Anna Paquin as Rogue, James Marsden as Scott Summers / Cyclops, Shawn Ashmore as Bobby Drake / Iceman, and Rebecca Romijn as Raven Darkhölme / Mystique. Daniel Cudmore portrays Piotr Rasputin / Colossus in the last two films, while Elliot Page[lower-alpha 1] and Kelsey Grammer star as Kitty Pride and Hank McCoy / Beast, respectively, in the latter. Jackman also stars in a trilogy of films centered on Wolverine, consisting of X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), The Wolverine (2013), and Logan (2017), where he is joined by Stewart as Xavier.
James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, and Nicholas Hoult star in X-Men: First Class (2011) as younger versions of Xavier, Lehnsherr, Darkhölme, and McCoy, respectively, while Lucas Till appears as Alex Summers / Havok. X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) features both the original cast (except for Romijn) and the new actors, while also introducing Evan Peters as Peter Maximoff / Quicksilver. McAvoy, Fassbender, Lawrence, Hoult, Till, and Peters reprise their roles in X-Men: Apocalypse (2016), where Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Alexandra Shipp portray younger versions of Grey, Scott Summers, Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler, and Storm. Except for Till, all new actors return in Dark Phoenix (2019).
Ryan Reynolds portrays Wade Wilson / Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine and stars as a new version of the character in Deadpool (2016), which also features a new version of Colossus played by Stefan Kapičić, replacing Cudmore. Reynolds reprises his role in the short film No Good Deed (2017), and in Deadpool 2 (2018), in which Kapičić also reprises his role. Maisie Williams, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Heaton, Blu Hunt, and Henry Zaga star as the titular team members Rahne Sinclair, Illyana Rasputin, Samuel Guthrie, Danielle Moonstar, and Roberto da Costa in The New Mutants (2020).
