This has been a good week for fans of comic book movies, with Marvel launching the first teaser trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and Fox giving us our first glimpse at X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Bryan Singer is set to take to Twitter on Monday to answer fans’ questions about the movie, ahead of the full trailer debut a day later on Tuesday afternoon. And before Singer takes to his keyboard next week, the studio has released the first sneak peek from the anticipated blockbuster, teasing very small snippets of footage of characters from both the original trilogy and X-Men: First Class.
Fans can head over to Singer or the franchise’s Twitter accounts – www.twitter.com/bryansinger and www.twitter.com/xmenmovies – at 5:30pm (GMT) on Monday, 28th October, for the live chat. And that will be followed at 1pm (GMT) on Tuesday, 29th October, with the trailer in its entirety.
The ultimate X-Men ensemble fights a war for the survival of the species across two time periods in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. The beloved characters from the original “X-Men” film trilogy join forces with their younger selves from “X-Men: First Class,” in an epic battle that must change the past – to save our future.
The sequel has easily one of the best casts of 2014, led by James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore, Ellen Page, Peter Dinklage, Omar Sy, and Halle Berry.
Singer is returning to helm his third film in the franchise, having directed the original X-Men and its first sequel, and he’s directing from a script penned by Simon Kinberg.
X-Men: Days of Future Past will hit cinemas on 22nd May, 2014 in the UK, with its US release date set for a day later on May 23rd. For now, here’s the first sneak peek footage from the film, and be sure to come back on Tuesday to see the first trailer in full.
