X-Men 3 is the planned third film adaptation of the X-Men superhero comic books. The previous two movies were X-Men and X2. X-Men 3 is expected to be released May 26, 2006. It will be directed by Brett Ratner (Rush Hour and Rush Hour 2, Red Dragon, After the Sunset).

The director of the first two movies, Bryan Singer, left the project during preproduction in order to helm the new film adaption of Superman - Superman Returns. He was also joined by X2 writers Mike Dougherty and Dan Harris. Matthew Vaughn (Layer Cake) was hired to direct the film; he worked on the film for some time, but family issues led him to withdraw from directing before shooting began. He was replaced by Brett Ratner.

It is not yet known which X-Men characters will appear in the movie, but the ending of X2 strongly hinted that Jean Grey would return reincarnated as Phoenix. Gambit, Angel, Shadowcat and Beast have all been cast as new members of the team.

X-Men 3 shooting will begin in August 2005. Simon Kinberg has been hired to pen the script for the film. Nearly every actor from the previous two movies is expected to return, the only major exception being Alan Cumming who played Nightcrawler in X2 who is not expected to return. James Marsden (Cyclops) is confirmed for the cast, despite reported scheduling conflicts with another upcoming movie he is filming. He has said that he wants to be in X-Men 3 and Simon Kinberg confirmed that Cyclops will take part in the story, albeit in a smaller role. Surprisingly Kelly Hu, whose character Lady Deathstrike died in the second movie, stated that she has a two-picture deal and will land a role in the new film. Ray Park (Toad) and Tyler Mane (Sabretooth) from the first film will not return, although the former has a two-film contract.

On June 13, 2005, Moriarty from Ain't It Cool News, an online movie site specialing in acquiring advanced information, has has posted a review of an early draft of the screenplay. As usual with the site, there are heavy spoilers, and it is important to remember that this is an early draft months before shooting starts, and therefore may significantly differ from the final released version.
