3. A New Look For Beast
20th Century Fox had an extremely short window to make X-Men: First Class in, which is why Beast didn’t look quite as good as he perhaps should have in that movie. It’s clear now that he’s undergone a fairly drastic redesign and that the cat-like features have now been dropped for a far more simplistic look. The majority of people may not even notice, but this is a look which will likely be well-received by comic book fans (as he now closely resembles the classic Beast more than ever before) and by actor Nicholas Hoult, especially as his performance often looked as if it was being negatively affected by the amount of prosthetics he was wearing in the movie before this one. Why is he attempting to drown Magneto in this scene from X-Men: Days of Future Past? Well, the tension between the two hinted at in X-Men: First Class is clearly heightened here!
