According to Variety, David Goyer will write and direct Magneto, the X-Men spinoff in development at Fox and Marvel that will center on the villain played in the movies by Ian McKellan.
With the big financial success of the three X-Men films, the studios hatched plans to create spinoff movies that would delve into the backstories of some of the series’ major characters. Magneto is the second such project to go into production.
The first will be Wolverine (with Hugh Jackman reprising his role) from a David Benioff script, with a director soon to be attached.
