RUMOR: Fox Wants James Marsden And Halle Berry Back For ‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past’

Filming is set to being in April of next year on the beyond highly-anticipated X-Men: Days Of Future Past, and we should expect to see quite a few more casting reports  for the upcoming sequel. Bryan Singer has already confirmed that James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult will return for the film, as well as Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen reprising their roles from the original trilogy. It has also been revealed that Wolverine himself, Hugh Jackman is in talks to join the fim.

Well, it looks like there’s a chance we may be getting even more of the original cast back. Word on the streets is that Fox wants James Marsden and Halle Berry to reprise their roles as Scott Summers aka Cyclops and Ororo Munroe aka Storm. While many may not care about Halle Berry returning, there are plenty of people out there who would be overly excited to see Marsden return after Scott Summers getting the shaft in X-Men: The Last Stand.

The original storyline that this film is based on deals “with a dystopian alternative future in which mutants are incarcerated in internment camps.” So, having these characters appear for small bits in the future segments can totally work easily. None of this is confirmed at the moment, but our fingers are definitely crossed that this one happens. Well, actually we just want Marsden to come back.

X-Men: Days Of Future Past is scheduled to hit theaters  July 18th, 2014.
