Lost Star Dominic Monaghan To Star In Wolverine Film

20th Century Fox has cast former Lost star Dominic Monaghan as Barnell Bohusk, aka Blackwing, in X-Men: Wolverine, sources reveal exclusively to JustJared.com.

According to Wiki, Barnell’s body changes into that of a humanoid-bird form, with a beaked face, bulbous eyes, wing-like arms that give him the ability to fly (albeit clumsily), talons on his hands and feet, and double-jointed knees. In mutant form, Blackwing also possesses heightened agility, and he may possess heightened senses and a lighter skeletal structure like the avian X-Man formerly known as the Angel (Ben Foster played this character in X3).

Monaghan, 31, be joining Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Liev Schreiber (Sabretooth), Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool), Taylor Kitsch (Gambit), Will.i.am (Kestrel), Danny Huston (William Stryker), and Lynn Collins (Silver Fox).

Damn, they're casting everyone and their momma for this Wolverine film. They've casted Will.i.am, Taylor Kitsch and now Dominic Monaghan all in this past week. I'm pretty sure there's a couple more on the way. I was a big fan of Dominican on Lost and in the Lord Of The Rings movies so I have no doubt in my mind that he can pull off the role of Blackwing.
