    I wouldn't hold the MJ thing against TASM2. It looks like that might be more done to avoid scheduling conflicts than anything to do with the movie or the actress.

    That would be quite the pileup. Surely one of them'll budge a bit? It's not as though there'll be any competition from DC to reckon with...

    I guess now he's really glad his last name is Jackman, not Jass ;)

    I'm not a big comic reader, never have been, so, I'm not familiar with the source material, but, I'm really looking forward to this, so many names and characters, I just hope it's not too many for a movie format and that the story can be focused in amongst what looks like it will be a boatload of cameos.

    @Turtletrekker...I wouldn't look at that Vulture report as being total confirmation just yet. No one from the production has confirmed that report yet as far as I know. I guess we'll have to wait and see for Singer's panel at SDCC this weekend. All it is right now, is a very interesting report.

    Its interesting that it appears that in "the future" they appear to be celebrating 50 years since the first Sentinel. The main part of the past is in the early 70s. That would mean the alternate future is about 10 years from .

    ^ interesting. Note the two looks for Wolverine. And I didn't know one character in particular was in the film.

    This is my most anticipated movie for next year, by far!

    I was a fan of Singer's films and First Class. In general but I love the retro look and alternate history. Top it off I love time travel films!

    That is Omar Sy as Bishop who originates from a dystopian future.

    Hopefully he will have a bigger role than Gathegi.

    I'm going to assume you meant Gambit...and yes I believe he will have more of a role in this than Gambit did in Origins given Bishop's interesting history.

    I haven't seen the cartoon's version of DOFP but Bishop was in that. Maybe that's why he's appearing in this film.

    Outside of Xavier, Magneto, Wolvy & Kitty, I really don't think you'll see or hear much of the other future characters except when they get killed by Sentinels in a cameo role. I doubt Bishop gets more than a few lines of dialog, if that. Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if the future sequence lasts only 15 minutes or so before we go back in time. We'll probably get a future sequence at the end as well which will lead us into more present day flicks.
