As we briefly reported earlier in the week, The X-Men: First Class sequel is going to be based on what many would say is one of the best ever X-Men story lines; Days Of Future Past. I remember reading this when i was younger, and if they can get anything approaching this on screen it has the potential to blow current box office records out of the water.
''I can say it’s being written right now and it will start
shooting in a few months. It’s going to be very ambitious. It’s called
Days of Future Past and it deals with aspects of that comic but also
some very new things. I just don’t want to give any of it away. Matthew
Vaughn will be directing and I’m totally excited about it. '' - Bryan Singer
The following is a summary of the original comic book plotline:
The storyline alternates between present day, in which the X-Men fight
Mystique’s Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, and a future timeline caused by
the X-Men’s failure to prevent the Brotherhood from assassinating
Senator Robert Kelly. In this future universe, Sentinels rule the United
States, and mutants live in internment camps. The present-day X-Men are
forewarned of the possible future by a future version of their teammate
Kitty Pryde, whose mind traveled back in time and possessed her younger
self to warn the X-Men. (via IGN)
I'm stoked about this, how about you?
