Patrick Stewart Clawing His Way Into Wolverine

Original Professor X not ready to retire just yet. By Brandon Wolfe While it had initially seemed as though Fox were phasing out the old X-Men cast (save for Hugh Jackman, who will be playing Wolverine until the sun engulfs the Earth) to focus solely upon the younger First Class crew, it turns out our elderly mutants aren’t being put out to pasture just yet. Speaking to Oregon Live about his latest film Match , Patrick Stewart dropped the bombshell that plans are in the works to team his version of Professor X with everyone’s favorite scruffy, claw-handed mutant for the third Wolverine film. “What I’m very excited about is that we have been talking about a Wolverine movie, which would team Hugh Jackman and myself together,” Stewart said. “Wolverine and Professor Xavier. That would be a very different sort of X-Men from the four movies that I’ve already done." Stewart, clearly on a face-melting tear, also stated that while he is not expected to appear in the upco...

“Rogue Cut” Of “Days Of Future Past” Coming In 2015

Anna Paquin’s scenes as Rogue that were cut from “ X-Men: Days of Future Past ” will be added back to the film and re-released as the “ Rogue Cut ” next summer on homevideo platforms. The extended version of “ Days of Future Past ” will become available in the first half of 2015, most likely during the summer, according to the film’s writer and producer Simon Kinberg, who made the announcement Thursday from Stage 21, where scenes for the previous “X-Men” installment, “First Class” were filmed on the Twentieth Century Fox studio lot. Kinberg, who also worked on that film, was back on the lot to promote the theatrical version of “Days of Future Past,” available now on digital and on Oct. 14 on DVD and Blu-ray. More than 10 minutes of extra footage will be added to the “Rogue Cut” of “Days of Future Past,” which in addition to Paquin’s cut scenes, will also include other sequences involving other characters, as well. “It’s a big chunk, a substantial part of the movie,” Kinberg ...

Actor Who Plays #Apocalypse In X-Men: Days Of Future Past

As fans exited “ Days of Future Past ” positing that he might be the man in the grey face makeup spotted in Ancient Egypt. That man, of course, is the villain known as Apocalypse , and the eventual antagonist of 2016′s “ X-Men: Apocalypse .” End Credit Explained For X-Men: Days of Future Past - But, as confirmed to MTV News by a source at FOX,  Apocalypse was played by   Brendan Pedder. Brendan Pedder is an 18-year-old actor from Montreal with — as far as a cursory internet search shows — no real credits to his name. However, it seems he was in the right place at the right time: “Days of Future Past” filmed from April to August of 2013 in Montreal, which clearly didn’t hurt the native Canadian’s casting. As to whether Pedder will continue the role two years from now, we’ll just have to wait and see. Please Leave A Comment- Source- MTV

End Credit Explained For X-Men: Days of Future Past

The traditional Marvel post-credits scene at the end of X-Men: Days of Future Past made hardcore comics fans very happy, but likely left more casual viewers scratching their heads. Who was this mysterious cloaked figure seen singlehandedly (or singlemindedly) building a pyramid in the air? His name shouldn’t come as a surprise, considering that Bryan Singer announced on Twitter last December that the next X-Men movie, out in May 2016, would be called Apocalypse. Yep, that was Apocalypse , one of the X-Men comics’ most memorable villains. Who Was the Villain in the 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' Post-Credits Scene? Apocalypse is the oldest mutant in existence, pre-dating the X-Men by 5,000 years; the bonus scene shows one of his early accomplishments, with worshippers kneeling before the pale, blue-lipped young man as he constructs one of the Great Pyramids through telekinesis. The name the assembled masses chant, “ En Sabah Nur ,” translates to “ The First One .” Creat...

X-Men Movies Continuity Issues

X-Men: Days of Future Past involves Wolverine time-traveling back to 1973 to change history. However, if you look at the previous six X-Men-related movies, you’ll see that the directors and writers have been messing with history all along — though not necessarily on purpose. After rewatching all seven films, we found six major incongruities that just don’t jibe — and you can’t blame Wolverine for these.   Spoilers follow for those who haven’t seen DOFP . When did Professor X and Magneto meet? In the original movie, Charles Xavier (played by Patrick Stewart ) tells Wolverine, “When I was 17, I met a young man named Erik Lehnsherr,” aka Magneto ( Ian McKellen ). But in First Class, Charles (then played by James McAvoy ) is seen as a child in 1944, and he meets Erik (Michael Fassbender) 18 years later in 1962. Director Bryan Singer takes the blame for that error, telling SciFiNow that he now regrets writing that line in the first script. When did Professor X and Mag...

Channing Tatum Signed On To Play Gambit In Upcoming Films

The film will launch a stand-alone franchise with the " 22 Jump Street " star tackling the role last played by Taylor Kitsch . Channing Tatum has signed on to star in an X-Men spinoff centered on the character Gambit , THR has confirmed. News that the 22 Jump Street star would tackle the role last played by Taylor Kitsch broke when X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner revealed the move to Total Film on the red carpet in London Monday night, where the current X-Men movie, Days of Future Past , was premiering. Multiple sources say that Tatum will get a stand-alone spinoff, with his version of Gambit being introduced in X-Men: Apocalypse . The stand-alone film is still in development, however, and no director has been attached. When asked what kind of an actor she was looking at to play Gambit, Shuler Donner said, "It's Channing." Asked to elaborate on what makes Tatum right for the role, Shuler Donner said, "Well you know, he's a rogue -- ...

“Quicksilver” Clip From X-Men: Days Of Future Past

A common thread following early screenings of X-Men: Days of Future Past has been how impressive one particular scene, in which Quicksilver rescues Magneto from captivity, is. Capitalizing on the buzz, a new promo for the movie offers glimpses at the high speed jailbreak. Watch the clip after the Jump... Introduced by a monologue from Patrick Stewart’s Professor Xavier, the new “Quicksilver” promo mixes Evan Peters’ introduction to the team — as glimpsed in an earlier trailer — with snippets from his rescue of Magneto from incarceration, giving the slightest of tastes of what to expect from watching the super-speedster in action. Watching the video’s inventive take on the basic super power of “doing things very fast,” it looks as if the X-Men incarnation of the character may set the bar pretty high for Joss Whedon’s competitive take in next year’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. Perhaps having two Quicksilvers could end up being a good thing after all. Please Leave A Comment- S...

DOFP Sentinel Designed Expalined

Over the last 24 hours, Empire has teamed up with the X-Men to unveil 25 amazing covers to our new March issue to mark the upcoming Days Of Future Past . Now, like Jean Grey sacrificing herself for the team, we come to the end of our journey, and can reveal the final cover - this one showing a future-model Sentinel - and gather together the complete set. The film's cast, along with director Bryan Singer and Marvel godfather Stan Lee , unveiled most of the covers personally, and those of you who have been following the #Empire25 and #XMen hashtags will have seen the whole lot make their debut online. As for the design of this future Sentinel , inside the magazine we have an interview with production designer John Myhre who explains their look. Here's a little of what he had to say. "They're biomechanical weapons. We had to come up with what would be the ultimate version that could actually, in principle, stop the X-Men. We started with this idea that they were alm...
