“X-Men: Days of Future Past” Movie Is Finally Happening! Yay!

I remember watching the "Uncanny X-Men" cartoon in the 90s and one of the episodes I liked back then was the "Days of the Future Past" series. If I can recall it correctly, the "Days of the Future Past" series is the one where future mutant Bishop traveled back in time during the heydays of the X-Men group to prevent an assassination that led to the production of Sentinels that affected much of the mutants in the future. Bishop, together with the help of X-Men, must find a way to stop the assassin who killed someone from the Washington D.C. (a higher official or so) where the production of Sentinels are believed to may been originated.



In the upcoming film directed by Bryan Singer, the “X-Men: Days of Future Past” movie is said to be based on a classic two-issue comics tales that takes us to a bleak future where powerful machines overpower and vanquish the warm-blooded populace. It is not clear though if Bishop will be part of the said movie or will the movie include the 90s' episode of the "Uncanny X-Men" TV series, but one thing is for sure - director Bryan Singer confirmed a few months ago that a Quicksilver character will have a part in the said movie. Evan Peters is set to play the character Quicksilver.

Thrilled to say #EvanPeters is joining #XMen #DaysOfFuturePast as #Quicksilver.
