JackFetch Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Heat Vision reports that Twentieth Century Fox plans on beginning the shoot for its X-Men: First Class sequel in January, meaning that there will be no conflict over Jennifer Lawrence with Lionsgate over the filming of The Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire. The trade says that Fox was originally planning on filming the Matthew Vaughn-directed "X-Men" follow-up this fall, which would have conflicted with Lawrence's Catching Fire, a movie Lionsgate is targeting for an August-September start date. If that had happened, however, Fox would have won out considering the studio would have been able to exercise the sequel option on her contract, which she signed before her "Hunger Games" deal. Lawrence will reprise her role of Mystique and is expected to be joined again by the likes of James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Rose Byrne, January Jones, Nicholas Hoult, Caleb Landry Jones and Lucas Till. http://www.superherohype.com/news/articles/170131-x-men-first-class-sequel-to-shoot-in-january Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I'm down with that. I don't want a First Class sequel but throw Wolverine into this and it could be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Gallagher Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 I doubt Wolverine will be involved - he's got his own movie in 2013. Making the X-films so Logan-centric is one reason a lot of other iconic characters got pretty much ignored. Cyclops in particular was shafted while they made essentially Wolverine And Friends.

JackFetch Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 We reported this June that Fox was snatching up Days of Future Past URLs, now Russian site StarkIndustries.ru is citing a Russian site roughly translated to “Film Business Today” to break the news that the sequel to ‘X-Men: First Class’ will be titled ‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past.’ http://latino-review.com/2012/07/27/x-men-days-future-past/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFetch Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 It's kind of a revolving door with the same directors at this point at Fox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratofarius Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Argh, please, no more Wolverine. Seriously. I liked how fresh First Class felt, because it had different characters. I don't want to see Logan stealing the spotlight once again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davedevil Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Plus, Superman Returns was hampered by his love for the first two Superman films. If Singer is returning, I wouldn't have much of an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Robinson Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Singer's had a few misfires here and there, but I like most of the work he's done. I'd be glad to see him come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Besides, looking at his resume, I think The Usual Suspects, Apt Pupil, X-Men, Public Access, X-2, and parts of Valkyrie outweigh the other parts of Valkyrie and Superman Returns. Since Jack The Giant Slayer hasn't come out yet, I don't think it's all that fair to judge it yet. Considering Singer came into the film after all the crazy insane drama had started with the film, I don't think he was at the heart of it either.

MaxPower Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 To be frank, they stuffed up First Class by blowing their load on the Magneto turn too early. So I've never been that excited about the sequels as it seems they are hell bent on cramming too much in to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 As was rumored to be the case last week, ComingSoon.net has now confirmed that X-Men and X2 director Bryan Singer is officially locked in to helm X-Men: Days of Future Past following the departure of X-Men: First Class director Matthew Vaughn. Scheduled for release on July 18, 2014, X-Men: Days of Future Past boasts a script by Simon Kinberg and is said to be inspired Chris Claremont and John Byrne's comic book storyline that ran in Uncanny X-Men #141 and 142 back in 1981. "Days of Future Past" introduced the idea of an alternate future for Marvel's mutants that grew out of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants killing an important senator, leading to a future where all mutants are hunted by Sentinels. Singer produced First Class alongside Vaughn and Vaughn will remain aboard the new film as producer himself. In addition to directing the recently-aired "Mockingbird Lane" Halloween special, Singer directed the upcoming Jack the Giant Slayer, set for release on March 1, 2013. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=96525 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc20willsave Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 I can see the aging, honestly, but still. If I hadn't seen photos of a young Patrick Stewart, I would swear he's a fucking vampire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'm really betting on his non-refusal of roles when I eventually ask him to do the audiobook version of my autobiography. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
