X-Men: Days Of Future Past Still Has Storm And Nightcrawler Listed As Maybes

By:  Eric Eisenberg Director Bryan Singer has been very vocal about the actors he will be reuniting with on the upcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past. Thanks to the film’s time travel plotline, having part of the story set in the distant future and others set in the 1970s with the First Class crew, the project has allowed Singer to bring back actors like Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh … Continue reading X-Men: Days Of Future Past Still Has Storm And Nightcrawler Listed As Maybes

The Wolverine’s First Trailer Won’t Arrive Until Late March

By:  Eric Eisenberg It would have made a lot of sense for 20th Century Fox to attach the first trailer for James Mangold‘s The Wolverine to this weekend’s A Good Day To Die Hard. Not only is the same studio releasing both movies, they are also both being aimed at the same demographic and the timeline fits perfectly (with the superhero flick due in theaters on July 26th). And … Continue reading The Wolverine’s First Trailer Won’t Arrive Until Late March

Sentinels Will Be A Major Part Of X-Men: Days Of Future Past

By: Sean O’Connell The closest X-Men fans came to seeing Sentinels on screen wasn’t very close at all. The towering robotic assassins were part of a Danger Room sequence in Brett Ratner’s forgettable X-Men: The Last Stand, though the only thing we really were able to see was Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) standing next to the severed head of a Sentinel after Colossus sling-shot him off screen … … Continue reading Sentinels Will Be A Major Part Of X-Men: Days Of Future Past

Here’s what he tweeted: He’s … Continue reading Anna Paquin, Ellen Page And Shawn Ashmore To Return For X-Men: Days Of Future Past

X-Men: Days Of Future Past Officially Adds Hugh Jackman As Wolverine

By: Eric Eisenberg When it was first revealed that Hugh Jackman was in talks for a small role as Wolverine in Bryan Singer‘s X-Men: Days of Future Past it looked like a no-brainer. After all, Jackman has played the same live-action superhero in more films than any other single actor (showing his commitment to the role) and it would give him a chance to reunite … Continue reading X-Men: Days Of Future Past Officially Adds Hugh Jackman As Wolverine

The Wolverine Had Only One Mutant In Early Drafts

By: Eric Eisenberg One of the biggest problems with Brett Ratner‘s X-Men: The Last Stand was that it tried to do too much with too many mutants. Somehow the filmmakers got it into their heads that the only thing people want out of an X-Men movie are cool mutant abilities, and the rest of the movie suffered as a result. So it’s strange to think … Continue reading The Wolverine Had Only One Mutant In Early Drafts

Halle Berry, James Marsden And More Wanted To Return For X-Men: Days Of Future Past

By: Eric Eisenberg There are technically three separate parts of the X-Men franchise universe as established by 20th Century Fox. The first part is the original trilogy, X-Men to X-Men: The Last Stand; then there is the Wolverine movies, which have so far included X-Men Origins: Wolverine and the upcoming The Wolverine; and most recently there was X-Men: First Class. While the sequel to the … Continue reading Halle Berry, James Marsden And More Wanted To Return For X-Men: Days Of Future Past

X-Men: Days Of Future Past Bringing Back Patrick Stewart And Ian McKellen

By: Sean O’Connell As we learn more about the story driving the next X-Men movie, Days of Future Past, the more it became clear that actors who played versions of the big-screen’s Marvel mutants would have to factor into the sequel/prequel in some way. There were rumors that Patrick Stewart wanted to come back and play Professor Charles Xavier (a role that had been assumed … Continue reading X-Men: Days Of Future Past Bringing Back Patrick Stewart And Ian McKellen

A source over at Coming Soon has confirmed the news, which has been spinning around as rumor for the last week or so. On Thursday the news broke that Matthew Vaughn, who … Continue reading Bryan Singer To Direct X-Men: Days Of Future Past

Something Off About Wolverine Claws Image

By: Katey Rich There’s a lot of interesting news floating out there right now about The Wolverine, which is really exactly what the movie needs right now. It’s technically a sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine, a spinoff that virtually nobody liked despite the presence of the always-great Hugh Jackman. When Darren Aronofsky left the project to work on Noah, it seemed like a stake in … Continue reading Something Off About Wolverine Claws Image
