Maggie Grace
Maggie Grace to join X3. For those of you who watch the show LOST will know her as Shannon. I found info about her joining and was wondering why this wasn't put up on here. Here's the article:
After weeks of speculation, 20th Century Fox and Marvel Entertainment officially announced ‘Lost’ actress Maggie Grace will co-star in the upcoming comic book action movie ‘X3’. In the third installment of the popular ‘X-Men’ movie series Grace will portray “Kitty Pryde”. Also known as “Shadowcat” in the comic books, Grace’s character possesses the mutant ability to walk through solid objects. Variety reports the film will start production in Canada this August and is targeted for a 2006 Memorial Day weekend premiere. It remains to be seen how this will affect her role as the spoiled “Shannon” on ‘Lost’. The Hawaii based castaway drama will also start filming its second season in August. In related ‘X-Men’ news, Brett Ratner (‘Rush Hour’) was selected to replace Matthew Vaughn (‘Layer Cake’) as the director of the upcoming film. Vaughn abruptly left the project last week after taking over the reigns from ‘X-Men’ and ‘X2’ director Bryan Singer. Ratner’s ‘X3’ is scribed by Zak Penn and Simon Kinberg. Variety states the movie will star all original cast members, plus Kelsey Grammer (‘Frasier’) as the furry “Beast” and Vinnie Jones as the villainous “Juggernaut”.
