ComingSoon.net was kind enough to confirm a juicy rumor that’s been bandied about for a few weeks. Seems that the multi-talented British tough guy Vinnie Jones ("Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels") is now on board to play the villainous Juggernaut in Matthew Vaughn‘s upcoming "X-Men 3."
CS.net also shares some thoughts from the director: "What’s interesting about Juggernaut is that he’s the brother of Professor X, and that’s why I thought it would be interesting having an English thug opposite Patrick Stewart." "X-Men 3" starts shooting this August.
