however alan cumming* was not on good terms with fox and so he was dropped from the film.
therefore nightcrawler was pulled from the script and apparently is to have said that the "xmens lives r too dangerous for him and he wud prefer to lead a peaceful life as a monk" or something to that effect.
*alan cumming is the actor who played nightcrawler.

I heard that the actor playing nightcrawler complained about all the make-up and his time in the film,he wanted more screen time and such,add that to the info that he was not on good terms...well
I didn't really like how they did him in the movies. They gave us a little too much of his tortured side and not enough- ok, not really any of his wit, charm, passion, or uh... other ...charms.
What can I say, I've always liked him better when he embraced a little of the darkness within, instead of abstaining. He's more productive as a hero, sexier, and above happier and more fullfilled.

I agree, I've mentioned before, that Alan's an ok actor and I've liked some of his other stuff, but he's not Kurt.
With all of the make up a lot of actors could pull it off better. If I were casting I'd have probably gone with a relativly unknown stunt guy looking to break into acting. NC's s'posed to be out there buckling swashes, not clogging up the screen with whiney, awkward conversation.
