‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ taking place in 1973?

With production on X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST gearing up for filming this April in Montreal, casting is needed for background actors and speaking/non-speaking extras. An alleged casting call revealed that the film will mostly take place in 1973; more than 10 years after the events of X-MEN: FIRST CLASS. This time jump would seemingly give writers a chance to explore the time period and make changes to Charles and Erik’s mutant groups, the X-Men and Brotherhood of Mutants.

Directed by Bryan Singer and starring Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore, Ellen Page and Hugh Jackman, the film will jump between “past” and “future” timelines as mutants battle to stop a history-changing event from happening.
