Ever since Brian Singer picked up the reins on X-Men: Days Of Future Past , we’ve heard whispers and rumours concerning which of his original X-Men he might be able to talk into reappearing.
Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are in place to reappear, while Hugh Jackman has already confirmed he’s a definite. However, according to Jackman, we might be in for much more than that…
“You wouldn’t have enough room on the page after you’ve listed them all,” revealed Jackman. “Every other actor who’s ever put on a superhero uniform will be in it. There’s an element of time travel and, naturally, it will be action-packed.”
The new film will jump between two moments in time, with part of it set in the same sort of ballpark as X-Men: First Class , while the other will jump forward to a dystopian future in which mutants have been imprisoned in concentration camps. Hence the door is left wide open for plenty of cameos from the older incarnations of our favourite mutants.
As well as assorted members of the old guard, the film will star James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence, and will open in the UK on 18 July 2014. We can hardly wait…
