Anya Taylor-Joy will play Magik in New Mutants, while Maisie Williams has been cast as Wolfsbane.
Taylor-Joy and Williams are the only two performers officially attached to New Mutants, but according to THR, the studio is taking careful steps to find “ethnically appropriate” actors to play Moonstar and Sunspot.
Taylor-Joy also mentioned in January that James McAvoy will reprise Professor Charles Xavier, but according to THR writer Borys Kit, Professor X is not appearing in the movie.
Cannonball will also be one of the starring heroes, and an alien named Warlock will appear.
