Caleb Landry Jones Won’t Be Back For ‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past’

by Shawn Madden

Bryan Singer has put together a massive cast for the upcoming X-Men: Days Of Future Past.  However, we haven’t heard much regarding the currently missing members from X-Men: First Class. We do know now that Caleb Landry Jones, who played Banshee in the previous film, will not be returning for this one.

At this point, with filming set to begin very soon, we may have to rule out a number of the unannounced cast members of First Class returning for this film. But we’re hoping that a few do.

X-Men: Days Of Future Past is set to hit theaters July 18, 2014

‘X-Men: First Class’ Sequel Officially Titled ‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past’

by Shawn Madden

First, we told you about the rumor about it being based on this story arc. Then we followed up with why it would be a brilliant thing to do. Well, now it looks like it is official. Twentieth Century Fox C.I.S. have reportedly confirmed and a Russian news site has posted information stating that the much anticipated sequel will be lifted from the pages of the Marvel comic’s and be titled X-Men: Days Of Future Past. Now while this will not be a direct adaptation of the storyline (cue: angry internet nerds and people who liked First Class but will not admit it) this is probably one of Fox’s best moves they can make with the franchise allowing them to introduce fan-favorite characters quite possibly without having to totally disregard stories they have already told. Well, minus X-Men Origins: Wolverine which I wish I could disregard from my own memory. With the film going into production in January we should definitely be expecting a flood of news starting soon.

A translation from the Russian site Starkindustries.ru:

Film Business Today, has confirmed the rumor that the continuation of the “First Class” was the official name of X-Men: Days of Future Past. The company Twentieth Century Fox CIS successfully managed the transfer of title:

“X-Men: Days Of Future past”

The sequel is scheduled to release July 18, 2014.
