Batman Begins writer DAVID GOYER is setting his sights on another superhero property – he is directing the spin-off movie to the X-MEN trilogy, MAGNETO.

The movie will focus on the young Magneto, the villain of the X-Men pictures, and how he became mortal enemies with character Professor X, played by Star Trek actor Patrick Stewart in the trilogy.

The main characters in the spin-off will be played by actors in their twenties instead of the original cast.

Goyer has previously worked on superhero movies Batman Begins and the Blade trilogy.
