Trask Is Bad Guy In "X-Men: Days of Future Past"?

The latest photo that director Bryan Singer posted via Twitter from the set of the upcoming sequel "X-Men: Days of Future Past" hints that Bolivar Trask will play a key role. Someone wearing a Trask Industries jumpsuit is the clearest signal yet that the man will be part of the movie. He in fact, created the Sentinels--mutant-hunting robots. Speculation is that Peter Dinklage  plays Trask. But when the character appeared in "X-Men: The Last Stand," he was played by Bill Duke. So far we haven't heard that Duke is returning--it's all rumor for now......Some also say the Game of Thrones actor Dinklage could be  instead be playing bad guy Apocalypse.

The entire “X-Men: First Class”cast is set to reprise their roles, including James McAvoy (Professor X), Michael Fassbender (Magneto), and Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), Rose Byrne (Moira MacTaggert), and Nicholas Hoult (Beast).

Anna Paquin (Rogue), Ellen Page (Kitty Pride) and Shawn Ashmore (Iceman)Halle Berry (Storm) While it was hoped that James Marsden (Cyclops) would be back. It seems Alan Cumming.(Nightcrawler) will not return.

Chinese actress Fan Bingbing has joined the film--as Blink, a mutant with the power of teleportation.
