The Wrap has revealed that Josh Helman has joined the cast of Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past. However, the Australian actor's role in the movie is being kept under wraps, but "may prove significant given that the actor is expected on set for several weeks." Similar to THOR star Chris Hemsworth, Helman found fame in Home and Away before landing a role in HBO's The Pacific and big screen productions such as Jack Reacher and the upcoming Mad Max: Fury Road. The X-Men universe is huge and there are countless possibilities as to who he could be playing. Personally, he sort of reminds me of a younger James Marsden.

Adan Canto has seemingly confirmed his role as Sunspot in X-Men: Days of Future Past.

The Following actor revealed on Twitter that he will play Brazilian mutant Roberto Costa.

In response to a tweet from a fan saying "I'm excited for @adancanto as Sunspot!!", Canto replied: "Thanks! Next summer."

The tweet has since been removed.

He had previously hinted that he "might turn into a ball of fire if someone p****s me off".

Canto will join Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Halle Berry, Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Peter Dinklage, Omar Sy, Fan Bingbing and Evan Peters on the film.

Singer's 20th Century Fox sequel recently added Home and Away alumnus Josh Helman to its already-packed cast.

Ever since the announcement of X-Men: Days of Future Past, fans have wondered which characters from all corners of the franchise would be returning. Now, director Bryan Singer has revealed that X-Men: First Class star Lucas Till will be returning as Alex Summers, AKA Havok.

 

Captioning the latest behind-the-scenes image with "Mankind must put an end to war before war puts an end to mankind." -JFK, the picture seems to tease that Havok is in some type of mutant army.

That head looks interesting for sure. And loads better than the one from "The Last Stand". I wonder if that's the actual size of the film though because that means they'll be a lot smaller than the origin Sentinels. Either way, I'm stoked!

      I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance

      Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
