Marvel consultant Mark Millar recently had a chat with X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST director Bryan Singer, and has some things to say about Fox’s upcoming slate of superhero projects, including word on an exciting announcement coming up.
“Just had a great chat with Bryan Singer. What an immensely nice dude that guy is!
“As a producer on Kick-Ass 2, I’ve not been in LA since Sept when Fox flew me out to sit with the insanely-clever writer Simon Kinberg and the Fox execs to chat X-men back when Matthew was still directing. But Kick-Ass 2 is pretty much done now and so my beady-eye can move back towards the Fox stuff again. There’s a very exciting announcement you guys will hear about over the coming months (if not before), but the most immediate things the office is talking about are Days of Future Past and The Wolverine, both of which I’m absolutely aching to see. I saw the first 10 mins of Jim’s Wolvie when I was out there last September. I’m out again next month and will have the pleasure of seeing a very near final cut too.
“Days of Future-Past is potentially the biggest and most ambitious superhero movie ever made. I’ve seen this coming together in various stages, but now they’re only weeks away from shooting it’s really catching fire. I’ll catch Bry in person before he heads to Montreal next month when I’m seeing Wolvie and we can chat a little more about the Fox grand plan. A very, very exciting time to be into this stuff, especially when you consider that the brilliant Josh Trank has Fantastic Four lined up for 2015. You don’t know how lucky you are – when I was a kid Nicholas Hammond was playing Spidey on a visible wire!!”

Very bold claim by Mark Millar. We’ll see what happens. It’ll either be successful or a train wreck. As big a fan of the X-Men as I am.. I doubt that DOFP can do better than Avengers.. then again, Fox hasn’t done anything with the franchise yet to show me that it can.
I wonder what’s the BIG announcement, hmmm?
Casting news for the Fantastic Four reboot perhaps.. or news that the X-Men franchise will be branching off to other things like Deadpool.
so exciting!!
and glad to know Singer and Millar have talked, it was about time. the future looks more promising than ever!
If Milar thought Nichalos Hammond made a good Spider-Man, that’s dumb. That TV show was already a train wreck. That’s Millar’s problem, He says more then what finally gets done.
