Hugh Jackman: ‘Days of Future Past’ is like 3 movies in 1.

Access Hollywood interviewed Hugh Jackman, who returns as Wolverine in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. The star talks about the long-sustaining franchise, boasts about the epic-ness of the latest film and has nothing but praises for the director, Bryan Singer.

“I was in at a screening and when the little ‘easter egg’ came up during the credits of ‘The Wolverine’ I just heard people yelling and cheering and screaming to see Patrick Stewart come back out in the wheelchair, seeing Ian McKellen with that fedora on, and I know having sat at Comic Con on that panel with that extraordinary cast. I keep saying it’s like two movies in one, but the size of it is like three in one and it really is gonna blow people away because [of] the story. Bryan Singer I think is gonna become the first director to make increasingly better movies in a franchise, I’m not sure if anyone else has done it.”

Giving credit to Singer’s pioneering of the current wave of superhero films, Jackman says “A few people kind of credit Bryan for what he deserves credit for which is really inventing that genre there wasn’t a really superhero genre before ‘X-Men’ came out.”

3 movies in one? I thinks there’s a lot of surprises in this film. Can’t wait. So excited! 😀
I hope Wolverine kill Stryker in the past or Havok should be the one to
kill him.. So the event of X2 won’t happen and to prevent Jean’s death.

I dont know if 3 movies in 1 is a good thing.. but I’ am pretty sure that Wolverine needs the young Stryker to give his adamantium claw back and then kill him afterwards. 😀

  Nah, Magneto can just push some of the remaining adamtium in Logan’s body to form around Logan'[s bone claws again.

3 movies in 1.. I hope its a good thing.. maybe it talks about XFC, X-men and Wolverine Storyline in one film..

I sure hope DOFP is at least a two hour film, and not the extremely disappointing 104 minutes that “Last Stand” was. If this movie is indeed as epic as the cast keeps boasting it to be, it needs a two hour duration so that things do not feel rushed, AGAIN.

I think Hugh’s referring to the scope of this thing when he talks about three movies in one, not that there are literally three movies (three narratives) in one.
