For now, the actor's wishes have not aligned with Marvel Studios' plans.

Cooper Hoffman, star of "The Long Walk," commented on rumors that Marvel Studios is considering him for the role of Cyclops in the new "X-Men" adaptation. The actor stated that he is not involved in the project and does not understand where this information came from:

"No, it won't be me. But I love 'X-Men.' Of course, I'd be interested. Such rumors spread quickly. Fans don't decide anything, but I wish their opinions were taken into account. I've loved 'X-Men' since childhood. It would be a huge honor for me."

The new "X-Men" will be directed by Jake Schreier, who helmed "Thunderbolts*". The project is expected to start a new mutant story after the conclusion of the Multiverse Saga. The film is anticipated to be released in 2028, but Marvel Studios has not yet announced a premiere date.
