Days of Future Past 'X-men: DOFP' Official CAST Thread (announcements and discussion) - Part 1

[spideyboy_1111]

I definitely think they will throw more mutants/actors in the film that aren't part of "the 16 headshots". I wouldn't be surprised by that, even in X1/X2, they had mutants that weren't included in the main cast ( like the ones that were featured in posters/promotional photos).

X1- Iceman, Shadowcat, Pyro
X2- Jubilee, Colossus, Artie, Siryn, Shadowcat, Mastermind (Jason 143)
X3- Multiple Man, Arclight, Psylocke, Omega Kid, Leech

Don't forget...
X1: Moonstar & Jubilee

And who was omega kid? Quill yes... And apparently Anole and Phat ... But i don't recall "omega kid" isn't that the creepy kid who nearly killed all the students and was obsessed with the stepford cuckoos in the comics? (the cuckoos also appeared in X3 as well)

 

[psylockolussus]

I didn't know Moonstar was in X1. Was she one of the students? I know Jubilee was the one with the yellow jacket sitting besides Rogue at the classroom, I just didn't mention her because she was hardly recognizable unlike in X2.

Moonstar is in the room (feather in her hair) with jubilee and kitty and prof x when Wolverine first enters and right before kitty runs through the door

Hmm, well it could be anybody. For me, its only Moonster if she displayed her power but she didn't.

Colossus is also in X1 drawing.

Lol. Well they're meant to be who they are.....

 

[spideyboy_1111]

Colossus is also in X1 drawing.

Singer did eventually confirm that one didnt he? For a while it was just fan speculation (like quicksilver thought to be the kid running on water)

 

[JP]

Not sure if he ever did, but he's a muscular kid drawing so I just assume. Plus, he looks like Cudmore, though it's obviously not. ,

 

[Norek]

So Sunspot probably? He's mexican, and I read that Sunspot was in the original First Class script, before he was cut. That's interesting.

 

[JP]

Dreamy.

 

[NanaT]

any suggestions on who he is playing? This is what he replied when he was asked by a fan on twitter for a hint.

“@kristagaz: @adancanto no hints on your new projects??” 1) I might turn into a ball of fire if someone pisses me off.https://***********/adancanto/status/321072768256966656

Sunspot, Sunfire?
What other fire mutants are there.

 

[BMM]

Assuming they're sticking reasonably close to his comic book counterpart, Sunspot most likely. Singer tried to include Sunspot in First Class, and Canto is a better match to Brazilian Robert da Costa than Japanese Shiro Yoshida.

I'd guess Sunspot.

Sunspot is Brazilian, the character's real name is Roberto da Costa.

 

[Angamb]

I really hope he is Sunspot instead of Sunfire. Would be wrong to change Sunfire's origin. That wouldnt be a good decision. I know they have changed many origins already, but Sunfire is like the most known japanesse x-men on the comics, so... they should respect it, I think.

since Adan is latinamerican, Sunspot feels almost perfect. Although I guess Brasil fans wouldnt like the country change, but this is Fox, so...

 

[BMM]

That's not Fox. That's movie making in general.

 

[Angamb]

Finally a new face added to the panel!!





Cant wait for next one already, hopefully with confirmation on a 70's x-man/woman

 

[Norek]

Why is Booboo on top, while the others are on the bottom?

 

[Angamb]

since he is the youngest of them all, its possible he is one of the 70's x-men.

and taking into account that old rumour of Singer wanting Taylor L. for FC, its a strong possibility.

Peter should be there too, I guess, if he ends playing Bolivar Trask, but once we get official confirmations of the characters, I'll update the panel

 

[marvelrobbins]

If the latest addation Is playing SUnspot maybe BooBoo stewart Is playing warpath.

The fact that most of new actors for film with exception of Peter Dinklage
and the one playing Blink are In Montreal with the Original Trilogy cast and
apparently filming parts of future portion of film has to raise question about
the most of film takes place In 1973 report.

James Mcavoy and Jennifer Lawrence still working on other projects.Nicholas Holt Is soon on his way there.There have been no word on Michael Fassbender.

If only a small part of film takes place In future you would think It would mostly be OT vets and Sentinles.

The lack of the Blink actress hints at her being a 1973 character.Well In Wolverine and the X-Men she did serve Magneto when he was ruling Genosha.
If that pans out her ability will not be changed to cause time travel.

That leaves possibilty of doing a mindswitch like comics to Xavier or Wolverine.

 

[Storm22]

Has Canto been officially confirmed?

 

[Angamb]

with a filming agenda of 6 months...

I highly doubt the future scenes are shooted in just a few weeks on April and the rest 5 months are for the past timeline.

So maybe Singer right now is filming stuff with Iceman, Rogue, Magneto, Charles, Adan's character.. now maybe with Hugh and Halle too..... and next week he shoots a few stuff of the 70's.

 

[Norek]

Well if Sunspot was originally intended for FC, if the new guy is playing him, he has a better chance to be on top with the 70s mutants. Anyway, until we get official confirmation, it's all just hanging.

Did Singer really want T.L. for a role in FC? Thank Zod he didn't cast him...

 

[Angamb]

yeah, I preffer Booboo all day!

less predictable, and more fresh.

I thought about Adan being on the past too..... but for some reason I find weird to see him along with James and Nicholas.

To me, Alan fits the original cast much more

If Blink is part of the 70s cast, it seems odd to get rid of one teleporter (Azazel) to bring in another one (Blink). There has to be more to it than this.

Singer wouldn't randomly add this actress, though on the other hand the studio might be trying to get the film a greater profile in China. (Iron Man 3 also has Fan Bingbing in it, with special scenes shot just for a Chinese version of the movie).
