Adam Driver might have repeatedly turned down Marvel before, but he finally said yes to playing Mr. Sinister in the upcoming X-Men movie.
Speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Driver revealed why he decided this was the right project to join the MCU.
"I was a big X-Men fan when I was a kid," Driver said, and, when Kimmel asked if that meant the comics, he agreed and added "and the TV show," which was "right in my generation."
"I was a big fan. I mean, I was a fan of the other things too, but this one felt like a right time, and then it's X-Men," Driver shared.
He added: "It was really X-Men and Jake Schreier, who's the director, his idea for it, and that it's Kevin Feige. It all kind of came together. The script is really cool."
When Kimmel suggested Driver was being "careful" by checking the project out beforehand, Driver also made sure to say, "A lot of people are going to watch it, and, if it's bad, a lot of people will see you being bad. Plus, I don't want to mess it up. I'm a huge fan of X-Men." Check out the moment below.

Driver's enthusiasm is certainly a reason to get excited – and the rest of the cast is pretty stacked, too.
