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?

2~ A prelude to Days of Future Past was produced in a three-part mini-series entitled "Wolverine: Days Of Future Past."This explains why Logan leaves for Canada and why Magneto is in a wheelchair

3~ see 1

3~ see 1

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.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.
    • Because of what they have done to VMware I will never buy anything Broadcom again.
    • AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs by Taras Buria Earlier this week, AMD released an important graphics driver update. Version 26.6.2 brought AMD FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen Radeon lineup, the RX 7000 series, giving users better upscaling tech that was previously locked to the newest GPUs. However, the driver turned out to be a little buggy, with users reporting installation issues on systems still running Windows 10. AMD quickly acknowledged the bug and today released a hotfix to resolve the problem. The AMD 26.6.3 Hotfix update is now available for download from the official website. Given that it is a hotfix release, it has only one change in its release notes: AMD announced the update on its official X account and added that a WHQL driver update with the necessary fixes would be released next week. Meanwhile, users can apply the hotfix or roll back to the previous driver using the official AMD Cleanup Utility. You can download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.3 Hotfix Preview Driver from the official website here. It is compatible with all currently supported graphics cards and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
