Jennifer Lawrence exiting ‘X-Men’ franchise

You better get your fill of Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique in next year’s “X-Men: Age of Apocalypse,” because after that the Oscar-winner is putting away her blue body paint and calling it quits with the franchise. “It is my last one, actually, yes,” she tells MTV. She, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy reportedly all signed contracts for three films, and it looks like she’s not interested in extending that.

Co-star and ex-boyfriend Nicholas Hoult, on the other hand, is open to negotiation. “This is the last one I’m signed up for,” Hoult told E! News about playing Beast in the series. “It’s a great crew and cast to work with and he’s a fun character. I have a good time playing him, so I’d keep making them.”
