Did James McAvoy Confirm Alan Cumming’s Return For ‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past’?

We’re just a few weeks away from production beginning on Bryan Singer’s highly-anticipated X-Men: Days Of Future Past, and we’re still learning about new cast additions to the film. Not long ago it was hinted by the director that we might see Alan Cumming returning as fan-favorite character Nightcrawler in the next film, and it appears now that James McAvoy may have confirmed his return. The actor may have not read the script for the film yet, but he definitely knows some details regarding it. In a recent radio interview McAvoy stated:

“It’s huge, the cast is huge. You got me, [Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender,] Nicholas Hoult will be back and he’s just blossoming massively over [in america]. Patrick Stewart, Ian Mckellen, Halle Berry, Alan Cumming, Peter Dinklage I hear mentioned – I don’t know if that’s happening – “Huge” Jackman is coming by. He’s massive, 7’5″ and muscle-ly.”

It seems pretty straight but forward, but until see get an official confirmation tweet from Bryan Singer we’re going to hold our breath and keep our fingers crossed regarding this one.

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