James McAvoy<\/strong> described the epicness of Bryan Singer’s X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST<\/a> to IGN<\/a>. “There\u2019s an army of brilliant actors in that film,” he says. “Bryan Singer is back at the helm. Potentially it\u2019s going to be the biggest, most epic X-Men they’ve ever had. I think it\u2019s the second biggest production Fox have ever embarked upon, behind Avatar. So they’re definitely going for it.”<\/p>\n What has Bryan brought to proceedings? “Bryan\u2019s very protective of the series. He did create it. He did help form that environment that allowed subsequent superhero movies to exist and thrive like they have done for the last however many years. Not to say that there weren’t other superhero movies out at the time, but of that ilk, where it was OK to take it really seriously. He does take it really seriously. There\u2019s a kind or reverence about it, which I like. You want people to take it seriously. That\u2019s what he brings to it I think. And a safe pair of hands \u2013 you know you’re in good hands.”<\/p>\n What was it like getting to share the screen with Patrick Stewart? “His last day was my first day and that was it. Then we were done. But we did crossover and we do get a scene together. Getting to work with Hugh [Jackman] \u2013 who I christened Hugo Boss \u2013 was great. What he\u2019s like on camera when he\u2019s getting interviewed and you think he\u2019s the nicest man in show business \u2013 he is. He\u2019s amazing. The guy\u2019s got grace coming out of every single pore. If we could all be a bit more like Hugh it would be a very happy planet.”<\/p>\n What about the rest of the ensemble? “Getting to work with Michael Fassbender again was great. I spent a hell of a lot of time with Nicholas Hoult. Weirdly the people that I spent the most time with acting-wise was not Michael this time, it was Hugh and Nick. And whilst I bemoaned the loss of my buddy Michael, it was more than made up for by the fact that Hugh and Nick are such amazing people.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" James McAvoy described the epicness of Bryan Singer’s X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST to IGN….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16436,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[15,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21666","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crew-talk","category-x-men-days-of-future-past"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":false,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21666","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=21666"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21666\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=21666"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=21666"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=21666"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
