X-Men: Cyclops to appear in Days Of Future Past?
James Marsden spotted on way back from set with Halley Berry.
Fan favourite mutant Cyclops could make a return to Bryan Singer’s ‘X-Men’ series, despite the character being killed off in 2006 threequel ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’.
This comes after original actor James Marsden was spotted on a flight back from Montreal (where upcoming instalment ‘Days Of Future Past’ is currently filming), sat next to fellow ‘X-Men’ cast member Halle Berry.

The rumour was inadvertently sparked after US journalist Ray Carsillo tweeted a picture of himself at an airport arrivals hall, caught in a paparazzi shot with Berry. He then revealed that potential co-star Marsden had been with her on the plane.

@thedcd James Marsden was there too. They were shooting X-Men stuff. Or is that just the cover story...? :)

Although Marsden’s laser-eyed Cyclops was left for dead in ‘X-3’, ‘Days Of Future Past’ is known to be tinkering in time-travel, giving such killed-off characters an opportunity to return to the Marvel series.
This comes after Bryan Singer recently revealed to HitFix that he plans to ‘correct a few things’ from the previous movies.
‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past’ already features a cast of series favourites -including Sir Ian McKellen, Sir Patrick Stewart, Anna Paquin, Halle Berry and Hugh Jackman, ‘X-Men: First Class’ veterans James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult and Michael Fassbender, and new comer Peter Dinklage.
‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past’ is out in the UK 17 July 2014.
