X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST writer/producer Simon Kinberg recently spoke with Forbes about the blockbuster film and explained the time travel aspects and how it effects the franchise moving forward. Kinberg affired that things will eventually lead up to the “happy” ending we saw in the future timeline, but that there’s “about 50 years” in-between to explore.
“I think the end of ‘Days of Future Past’ does indicate anything between 1973 and the end of this film in the future is possible,” said Kinberg, “as long as it gets you to that point in the future where Wolverine wakes up in the mansion and it’s a thriving happy school run by Professor Xavier with Jean, Scott, Storm, Kitty, Colossus, Hank, and other familiar mutants there.
“Really, we were if not resetting then redirecting the timeline that would come between the end of ’73 and however many years into the future that takes place. We say it’s about 50 years. So I say anything is possible.”
On the decision to bring Cyclops and Jean Grey back to life, Kinberg explained the emotional impact and the intention that went behind the decision.
“That is what time travel gave us. When we first started doing ‘Days of Future Past’, knowing it was going to be a time travel story, we knew immediately we had a choice to make. Which was, how much of a ripple do we want to see impact the future? We talked about all spectrums of that ripple. A ripple that would be so minor that Jean and Scott could still end up dead, or a ripple so major that none of them ended up in the mansion, and sort of modulating that just right so the audience feels like there is a respect and reverence and love for the original movies and we aren’t wiping them away.
“But there is also an openness to shifting things, and maybe some things that obviously we regret happened in the previous movies. Emotionally, we all felt the idea of resurrecting Jean and Scott could be so powerful and so emotionally resonant for an audience seeing them again. Especially from the point of view of Wolverine — he’d saved the woman he loved, the woman he killed. So much of ‘Days of Future Past’ is about, “If you had it to do over, would you do it differently?” And that is especially true for Eric and Charles, but we want it to be true for Wolverine, too. So he wakes up in a future that says, “You did, and you can do it differently.”
Pff! I hope they don’t make multiple X-Men films (again) set in the freaking past. After Apocalypse, I hope thats it for the past and everybody can now move on to the present and set up their adventures there. We don’t need to see another re-introduction of Rogue/Iceman/Kitty/Colossus or when the X-Men are younger,
After Apocalypse Storyline, I hope its over for the past now. They had their own trilogy, its time for the original storyline to continue and give the film that we deserve..
Well, Famke Janssen will definitively need a lot of Photoshop brush and make up. to be Jean again on a main role, on another X movie with the original cast made, I don’t know…5 years or more from now lol. She is still pretty, but considerably aged.
Removing wrinkles isn’t that hard anymore especially if you compare it to anotherX-Men movie set in the past where they have to make James McAvoy/Michael Fassbender older-looking. Anyway, a film featuring Hugh, James Marsden, Famke, Halle, Anna, Patrick, Kelsey, Shawn, Ellen and Daniel would be more exciting compare to another First Class movie and whoever teenagers they cast for Apocalypse. The original cast feels more X-Men than the other cast.
I just don’t see why a franchise like this started making movies set in the “not so distant future” will end up, making their last several films set in the past, assuming that there won’t be any film set in the future.
Everything is digital They can add CGI effects if necessary. The important is we can see teh original gang again in the future X-men.
I rented x-men: days of future past recently, watched it afew times and i think the results in the end really leaves alot of questioning, logan drowned, gets pulled back up and onto a boat by william stryker whom was actually mystic and just makes wonders what happened after that, did he still get his metal claws and skeleton, just sooner than what the old story line showed and such, he wakes up in the mansion and like kitty said, was like everything in the last 50 years never happened with him being the only one whom knows, it really was an awsum film dont get me wrong but lately i keep hearing all the scenes that were cut because it wouldnt have made sense with the rest of the film itself, like half the movie became a deleted scene, i do look forward to other future films, im excited about apocolypse which from what i understand will be the last “1st class” film and that’ll be it which i do agree because otherwise making other sequal’s to a prequal and other just x-men movies just would seem to confusing and frustrating to do
I hear Wolverine is not confirmed as a continuing Character anymore now in Future X-Men Movies. I hear that is why they had that scene at the end in which they had Wolverine in the past getting pulled out of the river with Mystique disguised as Stryker. Hugh Jackman is negotiating that it is his final role as Wolverine in an X-Men Movie now. That’s why they’re telling us that Wolverine in the past now will not undergo Project Weapon X ,with the Real Stryker, and have his whole Skeletal System coated with Adamantium Metal. He’ll just remain with his healing factor and bone claws only now.
Well like what they said, The future will never be set.. The whole team just playing safe and doesent want to make any final statement..
