I Want To Go: Professor X/Captain Picard To Marry Long Time Girlfriend, Magneto/Gandalf To Officiate Wedding

So Patrick Stewart is going to marry his jazz singing fiance Sunny Ozell and have long time friend/costar Ian McKellen officiate the ceremony. I doubt it'lll be a cosplay wedding, but you never know. I at least want to come to the reception, even as a busboy.

McKellen confirmed the news on the British program the Jonathan Ross Show, according to The Hollywood Reporter. He explained to Ross that in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, for a one-time fee of $25, a relative or family friend may perform a wedding ceremony. And, McKellen told Ross, the Stewart-Ozell nuptials won't be his first time officiating such a joyous event. "I don't know," McKellen said. "But in Massachusetts, in the middle of America somewhere, you get a friend along, and I read out the words, and Sunny and Patrick will then be married. ... I've done it once before with two guys having a civil partnership. I was crying my eyes out."

Man, now I want Gandalf to officiate my wedding. Actually he would sort of have to, because it's gonna take some serious magic to trick any girl into marrying this. I realize now I'm not the catch my mom always used to tell me I was in high school. Oh -- she's making a run for it. Quick Gandalf, blast her with a cold feet reversal.

Thanks to Brandy, who's really hoping they work some of their movie quotes into the ceremony.

    Because these days a marriage without a theme is like a drinking game with no beer, a British couple recently got married dressed as Shrek and Princess Fiona. Surprisingly (or not depending on how much faith you have in humanity), this isn't the first time it's been done. The... / Continue →

    I read this as "Professor X/Captain Picard to marry long-time girlfriend Magneto/Gandalf."

    I was confused, then aroused, then confused.

  • Let's hope he really will be going "where no man has [been] before".

  • NutSpark

    Now we just need Christopher Lee as best man and Ray Park as ring bearer and we can take it to full circle X-Men/Star Trek/LOTR/Star Wars ultimate nerdgasm.

    GW,

    I realize now I'm not the catch my Uncle Chuck always used to tell me I was in high school.
    I figure that my mouth just isn't as "pretty" & "little" as he used to always say it was.
    .......just sayin

  • Joel Lamm

    Before reading this, i looked at the picture and thought that they were getting married to each other.

  • asdfadsfadfs

    yep. and then I got to the part about a homo male male civil partnership and scrolled back up to see if it really was afterall...

  • JOe SCHMOE

    I thought the same thing. Two awesome actors

  • Same Here, i was like, Gandalf is Gay, but i didnt knew about Picard... D:

  • Elak Swindell

    Yeah, I never knew, and really didn't want to, that Patrick was gay. Always thought he was a straight guy, though after seeing some of his flubbed reactions in the season two outtake reel of Star Trek: The Next Generation, I can see it now. Still would have preferred him being straight. Already knew Ian was gay, though he definitely doesn't act it, which is good.
