Simon Kinberg, the co-screenwriter of X-Men: The Last Stand, recently stated that he is not to blame for the infamous “I’m the Juggernaut, bitch” line from the 2006 movie. The famed sentence was not included in the first shooting screenplay that Kinberg and co-writer Zak Penn presented, Kinberg said in an interview. Instead, it appears to have been spliced to fresh footage that director Brett Ratner shot after primary production was finished. The true explanation behind it, according to Kinberg, is that Ratner’s line was reshot. It caused controversy when Juggernaut (Vinnie Jones) said the meme-inspiring statement to Kitty Pryde (Elliot Page), since many fans felt it was out of character for the X-Men franchise. It follows that Kinberg’s desire to separate himself from this artistic decision is not surprising. According to Kinberg’s statements, he wasn’t the only one who didn’t agree with Ratner’s vision for X-Men: The Last Stand. Star In a recent interview, Rebecca Romijn had little good to say about her experience working on the third X-Men film and criticised Ratner for his conduct on site. She admitted, “I wasn’t happy working with Brett Ratner. “However, he was cancelled. Because I had two significant disagreements with two directors I’ve worked with, one of whom is Brett Ratner, and both of them had already received theirs, I haven’t spoken out about MeToo. Romijn, on the other hand, was gushing about Ratner’s predecessor, Bryan Singer, calling him “a fantastic filmmaker.”
though, Romijn made it plain that she was not directly engaged with the “drama” during the 2000 film X-Men and the 2003 film X2: X-Men United. Romijn did acknowledge, though, that some X-Men series veterans had difficulties with Singer. Later, Singer would direct two more X-franchise films, X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) and X-Men: Apocalypse (2016), and once again, several of the actors associated with those movies levelled accusations of improper behaviour against him. This includes Jennifer Lawrence, who took over from Romijn as Mystique and reportedly named Singer as one of numerous male directors she’s witnessed have “hissy fits” during filming. Lawrence is not the only person who has a negative opinion of Singer’s more recent X-Men films, though. Notably, James McAvoy, who plays Professor X, stated during a Q&A session about his career retrospective that he loved working on both Days of Future and Apocalypse. It was one of the best studio interactions I’ve ever had, according to McAvoy.
