The Calgary Herald reports that X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST is headed back to Montreal for scheduled reshoots and pickup shots in the next few weeks. Cast and crew will film additional and reworked scenes before the end of this year; principal photography originally took place April through August.

“A couple of weeks is a big reshoot,” said Quebec film commissioner Hans Fraikin, who was in L.A. meeting with Fox execs for the American Film Market, drumming up business for Montreal. When asked if it spelled trouble for the second-most expensive film ever produced at 20th Century Fox, Fraikin said “Not at all. It happens all the time, especially with big pictures.”

Back in August, Bryan Singer explained the process of principal photography, pickups and reshoots to fans on his Twitter.
