Will James McAvoy Join 'The New Mutants' Movie?

Were you wondering if James McAvoy's Professor X would be back in The New Mutants movie? Well, now, your ponderings can be quelled. In an interview with ComingSoon.net, co-star Anya Taylor-Joy pretty much confirmed that the dude will return.

When they asked her if she would reunite with her Split co-star, Taylor-Joy coyly responded: “I mean, I think James is already a part of it, isn’t he?”
