Halle Berry has confirmed she will indeed return to the X-Men franchise as Storm in X-Men Days of Future Past.

The rest of the cast includes Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, James McAvoy, Nicholas Hoult, Omar Sy, Peter Dinklage, Hugh Jackman, Ellen Page, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Anna Paquin and Shawn Ashmore.

Hugh Jackman In Talks To Join X-MEN DAYS OF FUTURE PAST


HeatVision has word that Hugh Jackman is in talks to reprise the role of Wolverine in X-Men Days of Future Past. After the recent announcement of Bryan Singer bringing back Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen it was only a matter of time before Wolverine was going to come back as well. It's excellent timing as Jackman recently wrapped production on The Wolverine and is still in prime Wolvie condition. Logan plays a pivotal role in the Days of Future Past storyline from the comics, so the immortal mutant will likely have scenes in both X-Men eras. Days of Future Past could end up becoming the Avengers of the X-Men franchise if there are any more additions like this to the cast.
