Bryan Singer tweets this photo from the set of X-Men Days of Future Past featuring a non-hairy feline Beast/ Hank McCoy (Nicolas Hoult) together with Wolverine (Hugh Jackman).
Singer's tweet includes the date 1973 which is probably why they look like they just stepped out of the set of 'That 70's Show". I'm excited for this film but I'm also worried about some continuity conundrums that has already been shown in the movie. This one for example shows a non-beastly McCoy which wasn't the case anymore at the end of X-Men First Class where he's already mutated to the catlike Beast we know. Maybe Singer has the answers locked away so if that's the case we'll have to wait until July 2014 for the answers.
Some minor and major spoilers for Marvel's All New X-Men # 5 written by Brian Michael Bendis with art by Stuart Immonen.
This has got to be a very Jean Grey-centric book that we've all been missing for such a long time now. I got the book solely because it spotlights the recently returned Ms. Grey. Spoilers begin after the cut.
Wolverine gets his ass pwned by the old school Jean Grey in last week's All New X-Men # 2 by Brian Michael Bendis and Stuart Immonen.
In this issue, modern Beast brings back the old school X-Men in his last ditch effort to stop the madness in Scott Summers. In his mind, bring the past Scott into the present and setting up a meeting between the two Summers could probably change Scott's mind about his new brotherhood school of thought. Of course, it doesn't end well as Beast is attacked by whatever is killing him and the old school X-Men escape using the JGSHL Blackbird.
