The seventh entry in the X-Men franchise has hit online, ‘Days of Future Past’, and it promises to have, frankly, ALL the X-Men you can imagine in one film, from the series started by returning director Bryan Singer and the younger-series First Class directed by Matthew Vaughn who returns here as a producer.

Though it may seem to not make sense entirely from the trailer, which features a lot of dramatic declarations from Magneto played by Ian McKellan and Michael Fassbender and Professor Charles Xavier played by Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy, it’s really a time travel movie where the older X-Men send Wolverine back in time to try and stop a cataclysmic event from happening with the X-Men in the 1970’s.  Peter Dinklage is one of the new members of the cast playing Bolivar Trask.
