Celebrating X-Men Films And Beyond

Anna Paquin has no ill-will towards Bryan Singer for Rogue’s cut from X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST.


Anna Paquin told Yahoo! Movies that she had no negative feelings towards X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST director Bryan Singer, who made the decision to cut Rogue’s escape sequence in the film.

“Bryan Singer is a filmmaker,” she asserted. “He’s not a music video director. He’s a talented visionary, and that’s why you have someone like that making those movies. If [my part] doesn’t actually fit into the final film – he’s not going to screw the movie because he’s going to hurt somebody’s feelings. We’re all big kids.

“There are so many moving parts, you’re jumping back and forth between timelines and stories and this and that,” she continued. “I can barely keep up with it! No one wants to be in the bathroom-break plotline!”

Regardless, Paquin said she had fun returning to an ‘X-Men’ set and reuniting with old friends from the cast and production crew.

”[While filming], I got to hang out with my friends for five days in Montreal, and see people I’ve known for two decades and go play. Did it end up in the movie? No. Well, it was fun anyway.
