Is Jennifer Lawrence Getting a Mystique Spinoff?

Entertainment Weekly recently interviewed X-Men: Days of Future Past's producer Lauren Shuler Donner and writer Simon Kinberg for a cover story about the film. Given the success of Marvel's Cinematic Universe and Spiderman's recently announced spinoffs, EW asked if FOX is considering any mutant spinoffs besides Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. Prodcuer Donner responded with “There was a regime [at the studio] that didn’t see the worth in [spin-offs], and the current people who run Fox understand, embrace it, and we’re going to do right by it,”. Donner would go on to say she would like to see a Gambit film, a Deadpool one, and lastly Mystique. Kinberg added when asked about Mystique's pivotal role in Days of Future Past “I love what Jen Lawrence has done with her, and I feel like because she is in such a crowded ensemble, there’s so much more opportunity if you were to follow her solo.” Sounds like FOX really is considering spinoffs for their X-men properties. I am a big of fan of Jennifer Lawrence and Mystique, but this seems to be a move that would try to capitalize on Lawrence's name recognition rather than the character's popularity. But hey, if they have a good story go for it. I personally can never get enough X-Men or Jennifer Lawrence's acting. So if this movie does happen, what role are they gonna cast Bradley Cooper in? Gotta be Sabertooth, right? What mutant spinoffs should FOX try? Beast? Magneto? Gambit? Doop? Tell us your thoughts in the comments. X-Men: Days of Future Past will be in theaters May 23rd.
