Oscar nominee Shohreh Aghdashloo (Dina Ariz on 24) has reportedly joined the cast of X-Men 3 as Dr. Kavita Rao. In Joss Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men, Dr. Rao developed a "cure" for mutation, throwing the mutant community into chaos.

So far the cast includes: Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Halle Berry, Famke Janssen, James Marsden, Ian McKellen, Kelsey Grammer, Ben Foster, Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore, Daniel Cudmore, Ellen Page, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos and newcomer Katie Nauta (described by BMI as 'a sexy mutant who secretes a special pheromone to seduce men.')
