It's been long rumored that these iconic actors would reprise their roles as the infamous duo turned enemies. Now it is confirmed that Brian Singer's "X-Men: Days of Future Past" will feature Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, and Nicholas Hoult.
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.
Although not yet officially listed, Singer's "more to come" is likely to also include Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. In addition to playing a key role in the comic book version of the story, Wolverine has appeared in every live-action X-Men film to date and will star in his second solo adventure with the July 26 release The Wolverine.
