X-Men: Days of Future Past Film Preview and Empire Magazine Reveal

So today saw the launch of Empire Magazine's X-Men Reveals in preparation for the new movie X-Men: Days of Future Past. Now we are very excited about this upcoming film in the X-Men franchise and as a follower of Empire Magazine on Twitter this has only made us even more excited for the release of the film.

As part of the world exclusive, Empire will have 25 exclusive covers for the magazine. Two of which are directly below.



The left cover shows Michael Fassbender as Magneto and on the right is Mystique played by Jennifer Lawrence. If these covers do not excite you for the release of the film then maybe the other 23 might. You can purchase each of the special edition covers.

As we have said - we cannot wait until the release of this film. If it was not made clear by the title of the film it is going to involve travelling through time. Exciting right? It certainly is as it means we will get to experience both the younger versions and older versions of many of the characters. Most obviously this will be the characters of Magneto and Xavier.  The younger Magneto/Erik Lehnsherr is played by Fassbender while the older version by Ian McKellan. The young Charles Xavier is played by James McAvoy and the older version by Patrick Stewart. That's just two characters and we have four excellent actors. That's without even starting to think about Wolverine, played by Hugh Jackman, or Halle Berry's character - Storm.

Days of Future Past has a huge amount of potential to be one of the better films in the X-Men franchise and one of the best superhero films of the year.  We certainly hope it is better than The Wolverine(2013) which was the last X-Men related film. It hits cinemas in the United Kingdom on the 22nd May 2014 and until then we will be replaying the trailer over and over again.
