Those who remain meet in Boston, where they form an uneasy alliance with Magneto to stop Stryker and rescue Professor X. Written by John Wiggins. Some people would tell you that X2 is more conventional and mainstream than the first movie and to that I can only say: What a load of rubbish! Not only does X2 continue in the style set by the first film but it also improves on it greatly. This is achieved by adding more characters, making a deeper story and making the ever expanding universe even more chaotic so as better to capture the essence of the comic book.
The film is based on the X-Men superhero team appearing in Marvel Comics. Its plot, inspired by the graphic novel God Loves, Man Kills , concerns the genocidal Colonel William Stryker leading an assault on Professor Xavier 's school to build his own version of Xavier's mutant-tracking computer Cerebro , in order to destroy every mutant on Earth and to "save" the human race from them, forcing the X-Men to team up with the Brotherhood of Mutants , their former enemies, to stop Stryker and save the mutant race. Development on the sequel began shortly after the first film was released in David Hayter and Zak Penn wrote separate scripts, combining what they felt to be the best elements of both scripts into one screenplay. Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris were eventually hired to rewrite the work, and changed the characterizations of Beast , Angel , and Lady Deathstrike. Sentinels and the Danger Room were set to appear before being deleted because of budget concerns.
