Kelsey Grammer Recalls Getting Replaced as Beast in the X-Men Series

Kelsey Grammer was looking forward to sticking around in the role of Beast when he realized that producers were taking the characters in a different direction with a new actor.In 2006, Grammer debuted as Beast in the sequel X-Men: The Last Stand. He was brought back for a cameo in the 2014 follow-up film, X-Men: Days of Future Past, which was set in two different time periods and also starred Nicholas Hoult as a younger Beast. As Grammer recalled in a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, the actor was feeling excited about his “franchise role” when he originally got the role, only to wind up disappointed once he realized that the franchise would be moving on without him at that point by focusing on the younger X-Men in the sequels.Grammer probably thought he was finished as Beast at that point, but he just recently reprised the role for a surprise cameo in The Marvels. This follows the return of Patrick Stewart as Professor X in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, as well as the announcement that Hugh Jackman will return as Wolverine in Deadpool 3. It’s not yet clear if Grammer’s Beast will also be given another appearance in the MCU, though the actor seems pretty happy to have gotten that chance to revisit Hank McCoy on the big screen.
