There's an extended edition of X-Men: Days of Future Past coming in 2015, and there are hints of details to come...
We've known for some time that there was more to X-Men: Days of Future Past. Once Anna Paquin's Rogue, a critical character in Bryan Singer's first two X-Men films was left on the cutting room floor because of time constraints, we figured those scenes would surface, but we never thought we'd get a whole new cut of the movie as part of the deal. But that's exactly what's happening in 2015 when we get the "Rogue Cut" of X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Not only will the "Rogue Cut" restore Anna Paquin's scenes to the movie, its special features will be different from the current Blu-ray/DVD release of the film. The news comes via 20th Century Fox's executive vice president of home entertainment, James Finn's Twitter account (which comes to us via Blastr). In answer to a fan's query he promised that it's a "distinct film" with "distinct extras" and that it's "complimentary to the DOFP Blu-ray not repetitive." As for a release window? "Summer 2015."
X-Men: Days of Future Past is arguably the highlight of the franchise, and one of the best superhero films of recent years. It will be interesting to see how involved Bryan Singer is with the reconstruction of this version of the movie, as well. If nothing else, it should help feed X-Men cravings until X-Men: Apocalypse opens in 2016.
