Wheelchair Man

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

He's still officially referred to as a bunch of question marks. So, no, it hasn't been confirmed.

It's Rufus.

Case Closed.

Magazine scans in Jump magazine aren't official material. The cast list given out at the preview shown at the Venice Film Festival was. (SPOILER)Said cast list makes note of "Rufus Shinra" having been in the preview. Taking all other characters present in the preview into account, the only one that could have been Rufus was the Wheelchair Man.

Rufus Shin-Ra could easily become Fake Rufus Shin-Ra.

I have trouble with the fact that they've basically told us it's him with the "Mr. President" line without actually showing us so. That and the scene with Kadaj kneeling before him, and the fact that, as it stands, there's no known origin for the new Jenovaroth. I'm not saying that Rufus definitely isn't Rufus, but I expect there to be at least one big plot twist in AC, and that would qualify.

I agree that it would, but as for the matter of Kadaj kneeling before the Wheelchair Man, I imagine that was simply to mock him. Granted, we can't be certain at this time, but it doesn't appear to be reverance in light of other things. One of the scenes in the 20 minute preview has Kadaj taking a threatening tone with him and implies that he's forcing him to help the Silver-Haired Men.

But, yeah, a plot twist with him wouldn't really be a surprise.

This is the only picture where you actualy see half of his face. I don't know if you already seen it.

Not Jenova then... is it confirmed that they called the person Mother?

No. Kadaj calls this person "Mr. President." "Mother" is JENOVA. They're after JENOVA's head and want "Mr. President" to help them get it.

[Kamiko]

Well, this is kind of a 'duh' thing then

[myxednuttz]

im pretty sure that the wheelchaired man is rufus...in some scences where you can see the inside of the cloth covering him....he's wearing a white suite. and in the game he too wore a white suit....

Highlight after it, in what appears to be blank space.

It involves using these tags around the text (without the spaces between "spoiler" and the brackets):
