The second star reveal comes from industry insider Alex Perez who has commented that Kelsey Grammer will return to play Beast after his previous return in the post-credits sting ofThe Marvels.
Grammer has said that his return was seen as “pretty overwhelming” and “there are some conversations.”
If this turns out to be true, it could confirm the current theory that Doctor Doom will combine the universes of Earth-616, where theMCUtakes place, and Earth-10005 of the X-Men.

Whether both stars stay on to play the roles in the Mutant Saga is up in the air, they could simply appear to usher in the mutants while a new batch of actors takes up the famous roles going forward.
Remember, Kevin Feige confirmed that “the whole story ofSecret Warsreally leads us into a new age of mutants and of the X-Men.”
I wouldn’t be surprised if these aren’t the only returning X-Men, given how popular the cameos were inDeadpool & Wolverine.
We could possibly see a few more familiar faces signed onto the project over the coming months as this phase of the MCU winds up towards the big Avengers duology event.
