The anticipated third film is expected to center on the Dark Phoenix saga. Both Simon Kinberg and Zak Penn wrote scripts, but the site says the studio will use Penn's draft for the movie.
In related news, while Hugh Jackman (who is also producing), Famke Janssen, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming and more are all coming back, Halle Berry still isn't sure. She tells XMenFilms.net:
I have not read the script. All I have asked, is that if I come back as Storm, she need to be closer to the comic book. So, if they have in fact written her closer to the comic book character, then I'm in. If not, I'm out. I hope I'm in though. I love Storm, and really want to be part of the last film.
Fox and Marvel Studios are eyeing a Memorial Day, 2006 release date for X-Men 3.

From Sci-Fi Wire:
X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner told SCI FI Wire that a third movie in the Marvel Comics franchise is slated to begin filming in Vancouver, B.C., in June 2005, with a release date of May 2, 2006. "I just had a conversation with [director] Bryan [Singer] today," Shuler Donner said in an interview at the Saturn Awards in Los Angeles on May 5. "We just started to talk about what the possibilities are. We're pretty sure Wolverine's going to come back."
Shuler Donner added that she's going to push to add the new mutants Gambit and Beast this time around. "I'm dying to put Beast in," Shuler Donner said. "I tried to get Beast in the first one and the second one, but it was always too expensive. So, yeah, I'm really dying to get Beast in, and I'd love to get Gambit in, because he's such a cool guy. And there's some really good casting ideas for Gambit." She declined to say who was up for the role.
As for Halle Berry - the Oscar-winning actress who has said she's reluctant to return unless her character, Storm, has a lot more to do - Shuler Donner said, "I certainly hope so, because I love working with her. ... We would only write a big huge role for her, so she's right in that respect, and we would make sure that that would happen."
Donner also confirms that writing duo Mike Dougherty and Dan Harris (X2) will return to pen the third entry, which will focus at least somewhat around Jean Grey's (Famke Janssen) transformation into the powerful entity Dark Phoenix. Hit the link below to read it yourself!

COMICS CONTINUUM reported in detail on the panel featuring James Marsden (Cyclops), Tom DeSanto (X3 Producer), and Mike Dougherty (X3 Screenwriter) that was in Los Angeles and some interesting bits were revealed. DeSanto also gave his opions on the fate of Storm:
"Halle's part of the family. She's Storm. She's been there since day one. She's a great person and brings a lot to the role. My vote would be if we can't bring back someone from the cast, we just don't bring back the character."
Casting contracts for the third film have yet to be created, but are planned to be making rounds to cast/ crew members early next year.

Stuff's finally going on with X3! :)
Nov. 14th, 2003 02:12 pmJackman and Donner Talk X3!
The X2 cast and crew seem eager to return for another helping of mutant life, as they've made comments on the future X3. Today, X1/X2 Producer, Lauren Shuler Donner and Wolverine himself, Hugh Jackman, give X3 mentions:
Chicago Sun-Times interviewed Donner about her upcoming flick she's producing, CONSTANTINE, and she gave her opinions on the possible X3, saying "Oh, there will definitely be X3. We're looking for a great story. We're lucky with this series because there is 40 years of great stories in comics. I hope Halle comes back. We just have to give her something great to do." As for a release date, she says, "That same nice May date in 2005 sounds good to me."
Superhero Hype's scooper, gave this quote from Hugh Jackman, when he appeared on GMTV this morning:
"Well, it'll be a few years off, but I am ties to the character of Wolverine and really do want to know how his story progresses. I owe a lot to Wolverine, and I love working with Bryan Singer and Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan and the guys, so I'd be silly to throw it all away, so yes...when they're ready, I'm there."
X-Men 3 First, Then a Wolverine Spin-Off!
The Sydney Morning Herald talked to Lauren Shuler Donner about the X-Men franchise and she has some very good news for the fans.
Hugh Jackman could soon have his own superhero movie franchise. A plan is being developed in Hollywood to spin off Jackman's popular X-Men character, Wolverine, into a separate film. X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner said she was developing X-Men 3 and planned to follow it up with the Wolverine movie, with Jackman starring in both.
"The ideal thing will be to do Wolverine after X-Men 3 and that's what we plan to do," Shuler Donner said. "We'll probably develop Wolverine at the same time, but we'll do X3 then we'll do Wolverine."
And all the fans gather to do a collective cheer of YES!
Singer & Arad on X3, Wolverine Spin-Off & More!
About.com caught up with X-Men series director Bryan Singer and Marvel Studios' Avi Arad and asked about X-Men 3, the Wolverine spin-off, The Punisher, Blade: Trinity, Spider-Man 2 and Fantastic Four. Here's a snippit from the article...
Arad said, "Well, if she told you we are prepping, we must be prepping." A flabbergasted Singer said, "Uh, great! Awesome. I don't think I can talk about it, but I'd like to make X3 very much, so we'll see if we can work it out."
Stories reported that not only is Shuler-Donner planning X3, but a separate Wolverine film. Singer's response to that was, "I don't know. I think an X-men film is simultaneously a Wolverine film, so in my opinion that's something that might happen afterwards, but ultimately I can't even talk about it." Arad added, "I think that both concepts are valid and both will be made."
