Marvel Studios is casting Asa Germann, known for the series “Gen V,” as the mutant Angel in its upcoming “X-Men” movie, multiple outlets report. Deadline and Variety say the casting decision has been confirmed by sources, while Marvel representatives are not responding for comment. Gizmodo also reports that Germann has joined the film’s expanding cast.

Variety identifies additional cast members for the reboot, including Sadie Sink as Jean Grey and Kit Connor as Cyclops. Samara Weaving is set to play Emma Frost, Inde Navarrette as Rogue, Christopher Abbott as Professor X, and Maya Boyd as another member of the new team. Deadline adds that Germann had previously been rumored for the role of Cyclops before that part went to Connor.

Gizmodo notes Germann’s casting in the context of recent “Scream 7” production developments, while Deadline and Variety focus more directly on the “X-Men” role and the broader ensemble. No outlet provides further details on plot, character interpretation, or production timeline beyond the casting announcement.
