Maggie Grace was considered for the role of the new Phantom Cat, and her colleague Josh Holloway in "Lost" turned down the invitation to play the role of Gambit because he felt that this character was in "Lost" with him. The roles are too similar. As a result, the Gambit character was not added to the movie.
Mike Vogel was once optimistic about playing the role of "Angel", but had to give up because of a schedule conflict with Warner's disaster film "Poseidon".

Actor Alan Cumming said that he was not very comfortable with the "heavy makeup" in the film. Until the beginning of 2005, when he promoted his "Son of the Mask", he said that he would definitely appear in the sequel, but he did not appear after the filming started. The official website issued the news of his withdrawal-at this time it has been less than a month since director Brett Ratner issued a rhetoric of "guaranteeing the return of all actors".
