Just how big is the cast for X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST going to get? Well, we can now reveal that their are at least 16 principal cast members thanks to a tweeted picture from Bryan Singer. The picture reveals the head-shots of the main cast, along with three new additions. Daniel Cudmore will be returning to the role of Colossus and hi fellow TWILIGHT cast member Booboo Stewart has joined in an unspecified role. Another new addition is the stunning Fan Bingbing (Booboo and Bingbing??) who may possibly play Blink. Blink is a teleporter with lilac skin and pink hair. Still no official word on Alan Cummings return, as suggested by McAvoy’s comments, but there are some blank places on the wall below, so fingers crossed.
At this point, I’m actually disappointed by the lack of X-MEN: FIRST CLASS actors returning. It just seems as though Singer wants to swoop in and get back to his story which he left to do SUPERMAN RETURNS.Where’s Banshee, Havoc, Azazel, Angel Salvadore, and Emma Frost? I guess I just kinda wish they had waited until the third X-MEN: FIRST CLASS film before joining the two franchises together.
X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST is set for release 18th July 2014. It will star James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Peter Dinklage, Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore, Ellen Page, Daniel Cudmore, Fan Bingbing, Booboo Stewart, Omar Sy, and Ian McKellen.
