Production on X-Men: Days of Future Past is well underway and director Bryan Signer continues to do a great job at teasing us. Not too long ago we saw Halle Berry all suited up as Storm and now we get our first look at Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Nicholas Hoult as Beast.
The set picture, seen above, shows the two characters donning their 1970’s wardrobe while in the underground hallways at Professor Xavier’s School for the Gifted. Admittedly, it isn’t too revealing but still, it’s nice to catch a glimpse of the two mutants together.
In case you’re unaware, the film stars, well, just about everyone ever associated with an X-Men movie. You have the actors from the original trilogy (Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Halle Berry, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore and Daniel Cudmore), along with the stars from the prequel (James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, and Michael Fassbender). Oh ya, there’s also new additions like Omar Sy and Peter Dinklage.
It’s a crowded cast, no doubt, and it will be interesting to see how Singer keeps everything co-ordinated and in place. I’m also curious to see how he handles the whole time travel element. Right now, I’m a bit skeptical. Between the time travel and the massive cast, Singer has his work cut out for him when it comes to providing a worthy follow up to the excellent X-Men: First Stand. He has proven himself before with the series though so hopefully, we have nothing to worry about.
What do you think? Will Bryan Singer be able to pull off the daunting task that is X-Men: Days Of Future Past?
