Anything is possible with the upcoming Marvel movies, including another actor as Professor X of the X-Men. One of the characters from the Breaking Bad series could replace Patrick Stewart.
The Multiverse has opened up a field of possibilities for Marvel Studios, most notably the ability to bring back characters under the guise of other actors. Patrick Stewart, previously the iconic Professor X, could be replaced.
Giancarlo Esposito as Professor X in the next Marvel movie?
There’s nothing official, but Giancarlo Esposito, the villain Gus Fring in Breaking Bad, would envision a collaboration with Marvel. For a new character in the MCU’s productions? No, he would play Professor X. The Pillar of the X-Men.
Giancarlo Esposito has already been in talks with Marvel Studios and several names have come up, including Professor X. He dropped this bombshell at the TJH Superhero Car Show & Comic Con in San Antonio.
I haven’t worked for Marvel before. We met in a room to chat and to answer your question I think what they are doing is on par with what Joe Campbell says about mythological travel. He was a friend of George Lucas and he drew inspiration from it for his stories. It is our dream, our intention to save the world and our environment. (…) So yeah, Magneto was talked about, we talked about Dr. Freeze and Doctor Doom. And Professor X
. I would do something different with him. I would turn everything we know about Professor X’s universe on its head.Giancarlo Esposito gone CountdownCityfreaks etc premiere)
If Esposito convinces, he might get a top spot in the next X-Men movie.
