After months of teased set photos from director Bryan Singer and an absolutely brilliant piece of viral marketing in the form of the Trask Industries website, we're finally treated to the first official image from X-Men: Days of Future Past. It isn't the most exciting thing we've ever seen, but that's alright. There's only so much you can reasonably expect from these types of things.
So, what DO we get? Well, certainly no hint of what's to come, that's for sure. In fact, this photo stays firmly in the "past" element of the Days of Future Past title, with Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), Professor Xavier (James McAvoy), and Hank McCoy/Beast (Nicholas Hoult) looking like they could be extras on the set of Serpico. Nevertheless, the novelty of a superhero period-piece, which was utilized to some effect in X-Men: First Class, hasn't quite worn off yet, and it visually sets these films apart from the seemingly endless procession of superhero flicks out there.
X-Men: Days of Future Past arrives on May 23, 2014.
