Several images from two sequels eagerly awaited by the fanboy nation come to light: Matrix: Reloaded and X2.

Bamf!
AICN gets their hands on the first pic of Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler in X-Men 2. Looks a bit goofy, I suppose, but there’s no real way of telling until we see him move.
Muties Gone Wild.
Fox posts the San Diego Comicon footage of X-Men 2. Brian Cox looks good, and it was a wise move to focus on Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart, but I can’t say I was completely sold by the teaser. Danger Room? Nightcrawler?
Get your Patrick Stewart On.
More films ready for the July 4 advertising blitz, X2 (X-Men 2) and Star Trek: Nemesis. And, for a more adult (or racy) minded crowd, here’s the trailer for Julio Medem’s Sex and Lucia.
Vancouver Pryde.
Bryan Singer casts 17-year-old Vancouver resident Katie Stuart as Kitty Pryde in X-Men 2. Pretty good call to go with an unknown but, given that so much of Kitty’s backstory was used for Rogue in the first film, how will they differentiate her from Anna Paquin?
Bamf!
Contrary to earlier reports about Ethan Embry, it looks like Cabaret alum Alan Cumming will play Nightcrawler in the X-Men sequel. Not what I imagined at all, but if he gets in shape he could be quite good.
