James McAvoy on the demise of Sir Patrick Stewart.
“Sir Patrick Stewart will always be the definitive Professor X to generations of fans, but to me, he is so much more than that. He is a legend, a mentor, and an extraordinary actor whose presence elevated everyone around him. Stepping into a role he made iconic was never about replacing him; it was about honoring the legacy he built. I will forever be grateful for the path he paved, both on screen and beyond it. There will never be another Patrick Stewart.”
— James McAvoy

Patrick Stewart says he has Beef with James McAvoy the young Professor X
Seth Meyers: James McAvoy who plays young Xavier
Patrick Stewart: ugh yeah
Seth Meyers: you don’t seem to hold him in the same esteem that I do
Patrick Stewart: I have enormous respect for James McAvoy he’s a brilliant actor, when he announced he was going to play the young Charles Xavier and he said tell me how does it feel to be going into the shoes of Patrick Stewart, and James said I will burry him’

Remember when Patrick Stewart watched James McAvoy shave his head for PROFESSOR X in X-MEN: APOCALYPSE (2016)? McAvoy later described it as Stewart “handing the baton over.”

When Sir Patrick Stewart was cast as Jean-Luc Picard in 1987, his Royal Shakespeare Company peers warned him that doing American sci-fi television would ruin his classical theater career.
He proceeded to spend the next 40 years bringing Shakespearean gravitas to spaceship bridges and mutant academies, single-handedly forcing Hollywood to take pop culture cinema seriously
RIP Sir Patrick Stewart 🕊️

Kevin Feige pays tribute to Patrick Stewart:
“I’ll never forget the first time I saw Sir Patrick Stewart on the set of the first X-Men. After years of knowing him as the inimitable Captain Picard, I was in awe — and he turned out to be everything I had seen on screen and more: brilliant, charming, warm, generous, with a quiet strength and gravitas.
Away from the cameras, he was even more remarkable, with a wonderfully sharp sense of humor. It was a true privilege to know him and to work with him. His legacy lives on not only in decades of extraordinary work, but in the many, many people he mentored. He will be deeply missed.”

Quizá ahora se entienda mejor esta escena del tráiler en la que Ian McKellen agarra la mano de su íntimo amigo Patrick Stewart, que rodaba Doomsday mientras luchaba contra el Alzheimer y la demencia con cuerpos de Lewy.
Va a ser duro ver esta película.

Patrick Stewart on Trump (2017): “You might say to me, well, you’re not an American, what has it got to do with you? The fact is when America sneezes, the world catches a cold. America I think is on the edge of a very bad flu infection and it’s because of the man who’s in the White House”
