According to reports, ‘Stranger Things’ actor Charlie Heaton is in talks to play the mutant Cannonball in director Josh Boone’s ‘X-Men: New Mutants.’ If cast, Heaton would take up the mantle of Sam Guthrie, who can fly at high speeds while encased in a personal force field that is invulnerable, thus giving him the name Cannonball. In the comics, Cannonball is also a founding member of the New Mutants, making Heaton’s role in the film most likely a big one.
