X-Men: Days of Future Past-Are The Recent Script Leaks True?

Radar Online is one of three sources who claim they've received leaked script materials from Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past at Fox. Said materials seemingly suggests the action that we will see early in the film.


There's no way to know if any of the leaked stuff is even accurate--two of these sources have reportedly been asked by studio suits to remove the materials from their sites - indicating they could be accurate just the same.

The potential spoiler info includes:

The near-future scenes are set around a crumbling, ruined Moscow where a vast bomb shelter under the Kremlin serves as a refuge for mutants. James 'Warpath' Proudstar and Blink are the first mutants on screen while it sounds like the Sentinels find the refuge almost right away.

Colossus takes on one of the advanced future Sentinels, a fight that will leave him seriously injured. Of course, as it's a time travel movie the consequences - even potential deaths - are all up in the air and reversible until the final few minutes of the film.

The latest sequel is based on a -2 issue story arc in the 'X-Men' comics published in 1981. Kinberg (Sherlock Holmes) is on board to pen the screenplay which will include New Mutants. Magneto and his relationship with Charles X. Xavier will be front and center as well.

Singer penned the treatment and produced 'First Class' which was directed by Matthew Vaughn. Now, their roles will be completely reversed for this sequel with Singer helming the film while Vaughn wrote the treatment and will produce with Lauren Shuler Donner and writer Simon Kinberg

Most of “X-Men: First Class” cast will reprise their roles, including James McAvoy (Professor X), Michael Fassbender (Magneto) Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), and Nicholas Hoult (Beast). Lucas Till (Alex “Havoc” Summers) Rose Byrne (Moira MacTaggert) recently confirmed that she is NOT in this film...

It seems Alan Cumming.(Nightcrawler) will not return. James Marsden has confirmed that he will NOT return as Cyclops. Anna Paquin's Rogue did a few days work but ultimately got edited out of the movie

The teams will join forces to battle the Sentinels--mutant-hunting robots--created by Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage).
