Lehigh Valley recently spoke with “Iceman” actor Shawn Ashmore, who says that fans can expect an “intense” storyline in Bryan Singer’s X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST.

“Some of our characters in the film are facing a far, dark future and that continues with Bobby as well,” Ashmore says during a recent break of filming in Canada. “He’s changed from who you saw in X3. It’s an intense storyline and pretty exciting.

“What’s so great about being part of a franchise is every couple of years, or in our case, every five or six years, you get to come back and work with the filmmakers and actors. I just turned 19 when I shot the first movie,” he adds. “I was still a teenager, but it feels like a lifetime ago. Everyone’s grown up.

“Bryan has grown as a filmmaker as well, so it’s really exciting. I trust him completely, with the stories and the characters. It was a no-brainer to come back and watch him tell the story he wants to tell.”
