Jason Flemyng Not Returning For XMDOFP

"I don?t think I will be back. Initially I was gutted, but then, I remembered I had to get up at two in the morning, I had to be painted red and be slightly out of focus and posed a lot, and that was sort of it. Now I don?t have to do that,"

After director Bryan Singer took to Twitter to, yet again, flaunt new additions to the ever-growing cast of X-Men: Days of Future Past, Deadline has now confirmed one of them to be Fan Bingbing. In addition, the infamous site also confirms the Iron Man 3 actress will play Clarice Ferguson, better known as the unstable mutant, Blink. Though she didn?t take part in the Days of Future Past comic book story arc (and isn?t the only one), the character first appeared in Uncanny X-Men (1994) and has the ability to teleport. Anyhow, Fan Bingbing, 31, is joining Hugh Jackman, Jennifer Lawrence, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Nicholas Hoult, Peter Dinklage, Omar Sy, Halle Berry, Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore, Anna Paquin, Daniel Cudmore & Booboo Stewart, while X-Men: Days of Future Past starts filming in Montreal soon and releases on July 18, 2014!

All the actors from the Danger Room scene in X3 are back. I'm guessing they're probably going to re-create that scene, but it will be the actual future this time around. Kind of like how they re-did the opening scene with young magneto in X1 and First Class.

So will Professor X be getting killed again in this film/time line again ? Will Magneto be paraplegic ? What mutants are getting killed ?

Answer 1: No, because Xavier doesn't get killed in "Days of the Future Past"

Answer 2: No, Magneto has never got paralyzed, only Xavier.

Answer 3: Wait till you've seen the movie?

You were asking what mutants are going to get killed in the movie which is why I said "Wait till you've seen the movie?". Why would anyone already spoil such things from the plot?

I could answer that to all 3 of your questions. No one has seen the movie/script so what do you expect people to answer?

Just because they die in the series doesn't mean they will also die in the movie. There is no chance that the whole list of characters is killed in the movie. Not enough time for that.

Is that real? I hope so. Beast looks WAY better than he did in First Class...

It would be interesting to see Kelsey Grammar return. I wonder if they're in talks with him too... I know that Bryan Singer had made comments with the previous movies that he didn't want too many blue people in a single movie. LOL

That is exactly what I meant with what you quoted from me :p Why would they spoil who's going to die in the movie anyway?

Also, that beast looks a lot better than in > X-Men: The Last Stand". Did not like that version of beast at all.

My point is , are they going to stick to the original story lines or make it up as they go along.

The things that made the marvel comics so popular in the first place was obviously the art work. The story lines were/ are a vital part of the equation as well.

Its pretty obvious whats going to happen in the film to a certain degree , even tho the Marvel universe is fractured between various movie studios.

No one knows the answer to that question either. What I believe is is that they're not going to spoil such things. Personally I don't want to find out about such things either before watching the movie :p But if I'd have to guess then I bet they're going to have a fresh take on the story, much like they did with the cartoon version of "Days of Future Past".

To be honest, art and story are both equally important if you ask me. The latest backpage story about Shazam in the Justice League comics doesn't look all that nice to me but the story of it kept me reading.

I believe it's the stories that made Marvel Comics popular. Artists (Art, inks, writers, the whole bunch) work on books from Marvel Comics and then later on you'll see them work on books from DC Comics. Therefore both story and art have equal importance, imo.

    • Amazon Prime Day slashes Samsung's newest Galaxy Watch Ultra by 45 percent by Karthik Mudaliar Samsung’s flagship Android smartwatch has received one of its steepest Prime Day cuts. Amazon has dropped the 2025 Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra in Titanium Blue to $357.24, saving buyers around $292 from its $649.99 list price. That's a 45 percent discount (purchase link below). The 47mm Galaxy Watch Ultra uses a titanium casing and a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 480 x 480 and peak brightness of 3,000 nits. It includes LTE connectivity, Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi, NFC, and dual-frequency L1+L5 GPS for more accurate outdoor route tracking. The 2025 model has 64GB of storage, a 590mAh battery, sapphire crystal glass, 10ATM water resistance, IP68 protection, and MIL-STD-810H durability testing. Its health and fitness tools include heart rate monitoring, sleep coaching, Energy Score, Running Coach, body composition analysis, temperature sensing, and ECG support, where available. This model is best suited to Android users who regularly run, hike, cycle, or train outdoors and want cellular access without carrying a phone. The larger battery, rugged construction, bright display, and dedicated Quick Button also make it a stronger option than Samsung’s regular Galaxy Watch models for extended workouts and demanding environments.

    • Google begins rolling out its post-Epic Play Store billing model next week by Karthik Mudaliar Google has confirmed that its redesigned Play Store billing and fee structure will take effect on June 30, 2026, in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the European Economic Area. The changes will let eligible developers offer their own payment systems or send users to an external website for purchases, while separating Google’s platform service fee from the cost of using Google Play Billing. The rollout puts concrete dates and detailed rate cards behind the broader Android policy overhaul Google announced in March. That announcement followed a proposed settlement with Epic Games intended to resolve their long-running disputes over app distribution and payments, although the U.S. portion of the agreement still requires court approval. Under the new billing choice program, developers selling digital content or services can display an alternative payment option alongside Google Play Billing. They may also direct users to their own websites to complete a purchase. Developers can use Google’s standard payment-choice screen or design one that complies with the company’s user-interface rules. Choosing another payment processor does not eliminate Google’s cut altogether. The company will continue charging a service fee for transactions associated with apps distributed through Google Play, regardless of whether payment is handled by Google, an alternative provider, or a developer’s website. Google argues that this fee covers the value and infrastructure provided by Android and the Play Store. For developers earning up to $1 million annually, the service fee will generally be 10 percent. That rate also applies to auto-renewing subscriptions. When Google Play Billing is used in the U.S., U.K., or EEA, Google will add a separate 5 percent billing fee, and developers processing payments elsewhere will not pay that additional charge. This means Google’s familiar flat 30 percent commission is disappearing, but developers will not necessarily see a dramatic reduction on every transaction. An in-app purchase from an existing user processed through Google Play Billing can still reach a combined 30 percent. The biggest savings are likely to come from subscriptions, smaller developers covered by the $1 million tier, and companies able to move customers to their own payment infrastructure. Google is also offering lower rates through its Apps Experience and revamped Games Level Up programs. Apps and games that satisfy the company’s requirements can qualify for 15 percent service fees on new-install transactions and 20 percent on existing-install transactions. The criteria include performance and reliability standards, support for additional Android device categories, and selected platform features. Those program rates are scheduled to become available in the initial markets and Australia on September 30. For consumers, the immediate effect will depend on whether developers adopt alternative payments and pass any savings on through lower prices. For developers, however, June 30 begins a more flexible but considerably more complicated Play Store economy in which distribution, billing, install dates, revenue thresholds, and program participation can each affect Google’s final cut. Google is also separately developing a Registered App Stores program designed to simplify the installation of qualifying third-party stores. That initiative is expected to arrive with a major Android release later in 2026 and will launch outside the U.S. first. Google says the rest of the world will receive the changes by September 30, 2027, although billing rates for markets outside the US, UK, and EEA have not yet been announced.
