May 1, 2014 by Gary Collinson

If you’ve been following all the promotional material for X-Men: Days of Future Past, you’ve probably noticed that James McAvoy’s Charles Xavier is spending a considerable amount of time outside of his wheelchair. Well, Fox has now released a new clip from the upcoming mutant superhero sequel featuring Xavier and Magneto (Michael Fassbender), which puts an end to the mystery…

 

And here’s another clip, which sees Beast (Nicholas Hoult) taking on Wolverine (Hugh Jackman)…

 

Meanwhile, thanks to CBM, we’ve also got two new TV spots for the film, which you can see here…

 

 

The ultimate X-Men ensemble fights a war for the survival of the species across two time periods in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. The beloved characters from the original “X-Men” film trilogy join forces with their younger selves from “X-Men: First Class,” in an epic battle that must change the past – to save our future.

X-Men: Days of Future Past sees X-Men veterans Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), James McAvoy (Professor X), Michael Fassbender (Magneto), Nicholas Hoult (Beast), Patrick Stewart (Professor X), Ian McKellen (Magneto), Lucas Till (Havok), Halle Berry (Storm), Anna Paquin (Rogue), Ellen Page (Kitty Pryde), Shawn Ashmore (Iceman) and Daniel Cudmore (Colossus) joined in the cast by franchise newcomers Evan Peters (American Horror Story) as Quicksilver, Booboo Stewart (The Twilight Saga: Eclipse) as Warpath, Omar Sy (The Intouchables) as Bishop, Fan Binbing (Iron Man 3) as Blink, Adan Canto (The Following) as Sunspot, Evan Jonigkeit (The Following) as Toad, Josh Helman (Mad Max: Fury Road) as William Stryker and Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones) as Bolivar Trask.
