Deadline reports that Bryan Singer has recently closed a deal with 20th Century Fox to direct the X-MEN: FIRST CLASS sequel, titled X -MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. Mathew Vaughn dropped out after deciding to film “The Secret Service” for Fox instead; he will likely recieve producer’s credit.
Set to return are the major players from “First Class,” including James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult. Actors from Singer’s original X-MEN trilogy are also planned to reprise their iconic roles for the film, which is said to span multiple time periods and timelines.
Singer had originally planned on directing “First Class,” before switching over as producer and sweet-talking Vaughn into the coveted gig.
Filming begins early next year for a July 18, 2014 release.

Great news all around.This will be the X-Men’s answer to the Avengers.
Hum Chris i hate to desapoint you but we don’t know or at least i don’t know what producers is having a competition or if is ok if Paramount picture is the same line of 20th century fox or is completely diferent i said let put owr hand on the producersmuch more better idea don’t you thinks so??
I think this is gonna be awesome! I hope he really makes this movie big! Like Avengers.. major eye candy but tells an amazing story like he is so good at doing. I hope Storm and Cyclops have awesome moments in this movie and given special character attintion.
It would be nice to see Rogue get sassy in her southern bell way and kick some butt. I wanna see Storm talk in her African Accent and exude that strong regal presence she is known for. I know Halle can pull it off.
You really nailed this nick. I agree with you.
Thx, I’m excited.
One last note we need to See Cyclops and Storm lead the team in different times.
i prefer to c Jubilee in her hability of a explotions atacking villains and ofcourse vs Scarlett witch it could be awesome and i would like to see Colossus Sorm and if could make and exception to see Cyclopes they could do it but i don’t think so cuz Cyclopes is already a Fog from part of the phoenix the person who could be alive is Jean Grey sense Wolverine kill again the body of Jean Grey the soul of Jean it could be staring a new one why not is a new beggining for some of them coz Cyclopes turned in to a Fog when the phoenix kiss Scot in he,s mouth so there you go so they are goin to have to anayelating the third movie of X-men from part of the producers
Nick, dude Remember what Xavier tell,s Storm when Xavier was alive in that time in the loby when everybody where in the manssion Prof Xavier tell,s Storm that Storm might be take the place of Xavier one day and Xavier put storm in debuts when Xavier says to storm you might take my place some day and storm tells Xavier there,s something you not telling us coz when Jean died Cyclopes is affected so much the death of Jean so Storm ask for Scott and quicly Xavier responds to Storm Scott is a Change men there nothing we can’t do about him and storm worry to much about everyone so this team of Xavier they was in suspense untill wolverine in the last sence Wolverine tell the phoenix Jean i know you still there so phoenix ask to wolverine you would die for them wolverine said no, not for them, for you, for you so jean ask for help so wolverine said to her i love you so wolverine kill the body of jean possesed by the phoenix it was so hard to see it all of that believe me it make,s me crying that heavy third movie of X-men believe me it was so profound this third movie of X-men the last stand it was so heavy but i like it was so interesting the third movie of X-men
but you nick now i remember that you where right about prof Xavier when moyra was with prof Xavier cured him in the hospital woked up Xavier and Xavier says hello to moyra and moyra was for the first time in shoked coz moyra tought he was death but now is alive so you where right Nick i m sorry that is my last post i m sorry Anthony for posting to many post
Could it be that Tom Rothman’s gone, so Singer is very happy to come back and be more creative !
Wanna see more attention on Storm andb Cyclops too. I’d imagine they’d be resistance fighters in the future. With Storm the leader based on how X3 ended
This is likely true news, But Deadline is nothing but cyber puke garbage, with trolls (not journalists) writing the stories.
I just hope now that Bryan Singer was set to direct the XFC 2, He can talk to the old cast to join the film and the future x4 if possible..
I do not like the idea of “multiple” timelines… Nor do I like the idea of timetravel.
I fear they will loose focus on the FC cast, and it will turn into a not-true OT, not true FC-Sequel movie…
Everyone LISTEN UP!!! Cyclopes is Dead becouse of the kiss of the Phoenix there,s nothing they can’t do about it Becose Cyclopes turned in to a fog thanks to the Kiss of dark Phoenix when Phoenix Kiss Scott thinking Scott of Jean Grey but is not Jean Grey when you guys accepted or not on Cyclopes is Dead is dead becose of the Kiss of the Phoenix thinking of Jean Grey in the third movie of the Last Stand
Mangold said it so nice in the chat: Base it on characters, keep it real. That’s why FIRST CLASS was so awesome.
We already have a movie series in cinemas wracking big cities, fighting aliens… and let them add time travel (Disneys Avangers).
Give the audience a contrast with the X-Films… more like The Dark Knight, more like the Bourne films: Political, sociocritical, “realistic”!
I’m all for what your saying except that’s not The X-Men should be not only character based but needs to be displayed in a way that shows how big there universe really is. Yes it is heart and soul but it’s also huge, powerful, and limitless as far as where you can go with story and effects. I know Bryan will keep with what he started in X-MEN 1 and 2, but I feel in going forward it also needs to mirror the comics and show how fantastical and huge that universe is. It should and needs to be a mix of the two, You can have both worlds in my opinion. Tiem travel does not mean that the story will be cheapened. After all … Days Of Future Past is still known as one of the most epic X-Men stories of all time. Time travel all over that bitch lol 😉
i love the first X-men film of Bryan Singer so seriouls and So original so as Mystique coz the first X-men movie original it is how the students know how are knowing developing theyre powers and i like so much the speccial graphycs of X-men first movie with rebecca rumming stamos she was an incredible make up over her playing mystique coz for my is so interesting like Batman:beggins the original movie so serious the speccial effects of the X-men first movie of X-men first movie i miss it so much the other movies not so much like the first one the first one it is so profound that,s whay i like so deeply much the first movie of X-men Directed by Bryan Singer and Producing by Lawren shulder donner and Stand Lee and Avi Arad those magnefisent People
I think this will be X-Men 4, and I think it will erase the events of X3.
WELCOME BACK, SINGER!
cant wait for the sequel and the rest to come, hopefully under his direction
Bryan Singer knows what to do now. Just keep calm and wait.
With this new change, it is unlikely this movie will start production in January. Next Apirl or May is more likely.
I am confident he will do the job well.
Vaughn is in talks to direct STAR WARS – EPISODE VII.
That’s why he pulled out of the X-Men sequel!
That is just a rumor for now. It has not been confirmed, so don’t say it like it was the truth you moron.
