The rather intense and surprisingly mature first trailer for Bryan Singer’s forthcoming action sequel X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST put the return of the evolutionary heroes to the top of my ‘must see’ list of 2014. A time-hopping plot in which adamantium-clawed mutant Logan must travel back into the past to save his race, offering a unique perspective of the fan-favourite comic-book arc by Chris Claremont.
The film has made it on the front cover of French magazine Cine Live and suggests a new poster is on the way with a similar design. Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine leading the way as Magneto’s and Professor X’s past and present hint at the struggles to come.
DOFP stars Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, Nicholas Hoult, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore, Peter Dinklage, Omar Sy, Halle Berry, Daniel Cudmore, Fan Bingbing, Boo Boo Stewart, Adan Canto, Evan Peters, Josh Helman and Lucas Till. It’s slated for cinemas 23rd May 2014.

Not technically the Claremont story arc. Kitty Pride, not Logan, was the time traveler in the original story. This takes Claremont’s arc and turns it into another Wolverine story. Also, Wolvie is 5’3″ and would never be confused with Hugh Jackman. While I have watched and enjoyed them all…mostly…I still don’t think a “really good” X-Men movie has been made yet. First Class was very close and best so-far but would’ve been better if the mutants were the original team (Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Ice Man, Angel, and Beast) and had been a “true reboot”. Could’ve been a nice trilogy with the first episode introducing the team, the second showing them grow, and the third showing the “new” X-Men (Storm, Wolverine, Colossus, etc.) taking over and kicking the door open to another trilogy. Jeez…do I have to do EVERYTHING?? 😉
