The film is set 11 years after X-Men: First Class, which took place in 1960s, and will feature a time travel storyline that will allow the casts of all the X-Men films to share the screen together.
What is known for sure is he will be joining the ever growing cast that so far consists of Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Sir Ian McKellen (Magneto), Sir Patrick Stewart (Charles Xavier), Anna Paquin (Rogue), Ellen Page (Kitty Pryde), Shawn Ashmore (Iceman), Michael Fassbender (young Magento), James McAvoy (young Charles Xavier), Jennifer Lawrence (Mysitque) and Nicholas Hoult (Beast).
"I wrote the story for First Class and produced it so this is a chance to not do a sequel to First Class or a sequel to X-Men 3 but to do both I guess in a way," Singer revealed to ComingSoon. "In Days of Future Past the story structure is a fantastic way to do that."
Expect more casting announcements in the coming weeks. Singer has not ruled out a return for Halle Berry (Storm) or Allan Cumming (Nightcrawler) for the film. X-Men: Days of Future Past will start production in 3D in April with a targeted release date of July 18, 2014.
“I start shooting April 15th in Montreal, probably until October. It’s a big movie. It’ll be the biggest movie I’ve ever made,” Singer told Collider at the recent junket for Jack the Giant Slayer.
