Speaking with GQ<\/a><\/strong> magazine, Professor Charles Xavier<\/strong> actor James McAvoy<\/strong> shared his overall experience making four X-Men films under 20th Century Fox. “It was one of the most positive experiences I’ve had with a studio. I don’t really [see them as just] money gigs. Days of Future Past<\/em> I think is one of the better films that I’ve been involved in.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“My biggest criticism of what we did throughout the four movies was that after the first movie, we didn’t take advantage of the relationship between [Xavier and Michael Fassbender\u2019s Magneto], which really formed the backbone of the first film,” he continued. “So it was like, why did we just eject that massive weapon?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They spent both films mostly apart, sharing only a number of scenes together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if I did I would definitely not be telling you.\u201d Wait, what…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
