    Default "X-Men: Days of Future Past" Adds "X2's" Daniel Cudmore and Two Others

    Director Bryan Singer has revealed a photo indicating "X-Men" trilogy veteran Daniel Cudmore will reprise his role as Colossus in "Days of Future Past," joined by Boo Boo Stewart and Fan Bingbing.

    This is sounding more like Singer's X-3 than a follow up to First Class.

    Yeah...there are alooooot of characters popping up. Hopefully they're not doing the classic sequel mistake...you know how they pack the movie full of characters and the story takes a toll because of it. No character has an actual moment and the movie becomes a flop. But we will have to wait and see what happens.

    Oh joy, the totally non-Russian Colossus guy, I can't wait.[/Sarcasm]

    Fanbingbing? That's a surname? Wow. My gut instinct is telling me Jubilee, people. Which would be pretty awesome. No idea who the other guy might be playing.

    I liked the first two X-Men films, but I thought First Class was better than either of them. I really hope this expanding cast doesn't mean we're not going to get a lot of young Xavier, Magneto, and crew. Those are the characters I really want to see more of.
    Everything burns...

    she's 30, so I'd bet more on Psylocke!

    I've already accepted that the fanboys scared the studio away from bringing back Emma but I really hope they bring Havok back

    Final six: Alan Cumming, James Marsden, Taylor Kitsch, Rebecca Romjin, Famke Jensen, and Liev Schreiber.

    Rumors are that Fan Bingbing is supposed to be playing Blink, which would kind of disappoint me. Not that their aren't people of Asian descent from the Bahamas, but the population's predominantly black and even then she grew up in Miami, FL.

    I'd actually take issue with her being cast as Psylocke as well since Asians of different nationalities shouldn't be considered easily interchangeable, and yes, of course Betsy is British besides.

    I remember thinking that his whole role in X3 was so small that they might as well have just left him out of the movie. I also don't get why he was not Russian in the movies. Part of what makes x-men interesting is that being a mutant goes beyond nations and cultures.

    I'm actually disappointed that with the exception of Lawrence who's star rose significantly since First Class, none of the First Class seems to actually be returning as major players in the story.

    Ah, that I did not know. Of course 'Psylocke' did technically appear in Last Stand but like 'Emma' in Origins she was treated so pathetically they might as well pretend she wasn't. Personally I'd like Betsy to be saved for a Captain Britain film and be played by an British-Asian actress, but since 'Colossus' isn't Russian in Last Stand I guess anything could happen.

    Honestly, it just feels like laziness to me. It can't be that hard to find a British Asian actress willing to get a nice fat paycheck from Fox.

    Am I the only one who wants to photoshop the various "DEAD", "APPREHENDED" etc. from the classic cover onto those headshots?

    As for Boo Boo Stewart, I'm thinking he could be Sunfire.
