‘Kitty Pryde’ Movie All But Confirmed As Tim Miller And Brian Michael Bendis Team For ‘143’

143 is likely a code name, referring to Uncanny X-Men No. 143, one of the first solo Kitty Pryde stories, in which the character goes head to head against a demon inside the X-Mansion, aka Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. If 143 is, indeed, the Kitty Pryde film, it won’t be the character’s first on screen incarnation. Ellen Page previously played the mutant character, who has the power of “phasing,” allowing her to pass through solid objects.
Miller, who made his feature directorial debut with Deadpool, is currently working on a brand new Terminator film with original Terminator creator James Cameron. Miller’s Terminator involvement is going to keep him busy for the foreseeable future, which means he won’t be getting to 143 anytime soon.
