Anya Taylor Joy could be making her highly anticipated return as Magik in the Marvel Cinematic Universe! A new industry report claims Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige is actively interested in bringing Taylor Joy back as Illyana Rasputin/Magik, the fan favorite role she previously portrayed in 2020’s The New Mutants.
The rumor has sparked massive excitement across online fandoms, with many reflecting on how Taylor Joy was universally considered one of the brightest highlights of the Fox era film. Deadpool co creator Rob Liefeld even publicly backed the idea, praising her as "perfectly cast" and passionately urging Marvel Studios to officially bring her back.
However, this report currently remains unconfirmed speculation. Marvel Studios has not officially announced Taylor Joy as part of its upcoming main X Men reboot, whose revealed cast features Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Christopher Abbott as Professor X, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, Inde Navarrette as Rogue, and Maya Boyd as Storm.
If this exciting casting rumor proves true, her potential return would most likely occur through the MCU’s ongoing Multiverse storyline rather than as a permanent member of the rebooted mutant lineup. Would you love to see her step back into Limbo?
