I don't think there will be a couple in this movie. Maybe Hank/Raven but they already covered that in FC. If the X-men ally with the Brotherhood again, then there might be something there. Plus those actors are a true couple in life, or at least have been in the past, so pretty easy to play off of that and intimate that if they choose not to show so explicitly.
This film needs to be all about moving a story forward as opposed to going off in tangents regarding invidual character development. That's not to say it shouldn't be there. We need to see that maturation from Charles and Eric. Outside of that, the audiences pretty much know who these people are. They just want a solid story that can move the franchise out from this rut. |

We don't know who Rogue, Iceman, Kitty and Colossus are as adults. So we do need to see a bit of their altered personalities.

I'm just glad they got the characters back. If the cure worked she wouldn't have a big role in this though

Alternate futures are usually more badass in films. I hope this follows suit.

There's so much wrong with Origins can't we all just ignore it completely? However, give it it's dues by keeping Liev and Taylor... the only good things about the movie.

And Ryan Reynolds, for all of the ten minutes that he was onscreen.

Then you haven't been paying attention to the conversation.

I don't think people will really mind if Gambit doesn't age. He's a mutant anyway and they could do what they did to Sebastian Shaw, he absorbs energy too to stay young.

Having seen X3 again, Rogue was completely destroyed as a character in it. I hope she gets some kind of redemption in DoFP.

If the Vulture spoilers are true or even if just the footage is she will play a pivotal role in the time travel so she is a hero. Without her they couldn't get rid of the Sentinels. And hopefully she's over Bobby so she's a more confident woman and a kickass mutant. She'll redeem herself by directly being a part of the reason the X-Men's future is saved. |

I seriously doubt it. It's been 10 years, she'll be back to being untouchable and will have been for years as Magneto has his powers back by The Wolverine and DOFP is clearly a few years after that to make up the decade.
Bobby and Rogue's relationship wouldn't have survived years of no touching. It probably didn't survive that long after X3. The guilt over her getting the cure would realistically have caused tension. Plus if Rogue isn't part of the team, which looks like a good possibility, then they can't be a couple because she's not there. And Shawn hinted in an interview that they aren't together. But that there's left over issues. Which there would be under all these circumstances. I expect some tension there but no romance. I hope so anyway. |

It's the impression I've been getting. Especially as Anna hasn't mentioned Iceman when talking about DOFP. And she was so up for the idea of Rogue/Gambit so she has no loyalty to Rogue/Iceman. Probably because they don't really exist anymore 10 years down the line. Or it's lead to rest once and for all then. It would be ridiculous if they were still a couple a decade later. A) their relationship was a teenage crush that wouldn't have lasted under any circumstances. B) Rogue will be untouchable again for a number of years, so they are pointless and unrealistic. C) If she's potentially not around all the time or limited in screen time they can't have a proper romance or relationship. There isn't the time or opportunity. |

You almost can say she didn't talk about this movie, and for some weird reason it's like nobody asks her ![]() |

And people barely talk about Rogue at all. Even Shawn was vague. I think they've all been told not to say much about her character or storyline. |

I also read her interview for Modern Luxury. I though you found something new because she actually didn't said anything about this movie LOL. That's why your phrase surprised me.

Considering how loving and supportive Bobby was of Rogue in X1/X2, I doubt that not being able to touch her would cause a breakup.

Rogue wouldn't have stayed with him when they can't touch. She'd have set him free years ago. And going by how the timeline is starting to look her powers have been back for years. I am getting no suggestion they are still a couple as of DOFP. I think they're just exes. Rogue doesn't even seem to be around for the whole plot so likely isn't even with the team anymore when DOFP starts. And Anna has zero loyalty to Iceman. She was excited about Rogue hooking up with Gambit in the future. |

Sorry, but they were together for years in the OT, and were still together at the end of X3. I don't know where you get that she had a crush on Wolverine. In X1 yes, but it was more a buddy/father daughter relationship in X2/X3. Why would she need to set him free, he wants to be with her, you're argument makes no sense. Maybe they broker up and maybe not, we don't know yet.
