X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST director Bryan Singer recently told IGN that Peter Dinklage’s role is definitely not for that of Puck, the Canadian mutant member of ‘Alpha Flight.’ It was reported that Dinklage would play the main antagonist in the film, reportedly Bolivar Trask or his brother, Simon, creators of the mutant-hunting robots known as the Sentinels. Singer confirms one thing… he’s definitely not going to be a CG creation.
“He’s not going to be a CGI character,” he said. “He’ll be himself. Not that he’ll be playing Peter Dinklage, he’ll be playing this character. It’s not a shy character. He’s just such a phenomenal actor; I’m a huge fan of Peter’s and Game of Thrones. He was my first choice and I was really happy [about the casting]. It’s so funny to talk to him because he does that impeccable accent [on Game of Thrones] and then you talk to him and he’s this guy from New Jersey.”
Singer also says to expect more announcements re: an actor he’s currently negotiating with and confirmation on the “younger” mutants of the film.
Will Cyclops, Jean and/or Storm get the “First Class” treatment?
Yes please!!!!! Young Storm, Cyclops, and Jean!!!!!!! Storm has to be in this movie! Still want Halle but a young Storm would be awesome! I still think Kat Graham would be an awesome young Storm!
it could be cool to Katherine Graham the actress who play in the tv series the vampire diaries she would be cool to her to play young Storm she fit perfect the chsracter of young storm very cool
If he does end up playing Simon Trask I’ll be disappointed. This is just another of those instances where they’re completely changing a character that doesn’t need to be changed. It’s not like tall actors are in short supply. This movie better be good.
I would definitely like a younger version of Scott and Jean. . . as they are my favourite characters
simon trask.. mmm not fan of it but ill sure get information about it and it looks pretty exciting.. and about young mutants.. if its Jean, Cyclops and Storm, im pretty sure that explains why Bryan will not add old Storm in the group..
I already posted this in another section, but Halle back as Storm and the new young characters being Cyclops and Jean will make me a happy camper. After that if they stop casting I’ll be a okay.
