Crush Of The Day: Hugh Jackman Shows Off His Butt In X-Men: Days Of Future Past (NSFW)

May 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

hugh-jackman-x-men-days-of-future-past-slideAs we mentioned in our review, Hugh Jackman gets nekkid in X-Men: Days Of Future Past, so it’s little surprise that the relevant portion of the movie has quickly shown up online and been turned into a gif (which you can see below).

As the film is PG-13, don’t expect anything too dangly though.

Hugh has been talking about the scene while promoting the movie, including on Live With Kelly & Michael, where he explained, “It wasn’t written as a nude scene.”

“The scene has Wolverine, because the whole premise of the movie is it has Wolverine traveling back in time to prevent something cataclysmic happening in the future,” he said. “So I land back in 1973. I wake up — this is what the script says — wake up next to a girl who I don’t remember, and I get out of bed wearing boxer shorts. I don’t know about America, but in Australia, if you are next to a really good looking girl, you’re not getting out with boxer shorts on or briefs, or anything! So, yeah, I went commando and we just went for it,” he said.

Jackman added that they did slightly try to preserve his modesty, saying, “There’s a sock. They brought a bright green sock for me to wear and I was like, ‘This is kind of drawing more attention than less.’ And they said, ‘No, no, no we need bright green like a green screen, so if you bend over, if you turn around, we need to erase it.’

However in an online Q&A Jackman revealed there was something about his nude scene he forgot to do – tell his kids. He says, “It is actually really cool to watch it with them until you get to the moment where you’re naked onscreen and you forgot to warn your almost 9-year-old daughter. And she says ‘Dad, why aren’t you wearing underwear?'”

Take a look at the butt shot giff and Live With Kelly & Michael interview below. [Read more…]

James McAvoy & Michael Fassbender Take A Look At The Internet’s Love Of Putting Their X-Men Characters Together In Gay Fan Art

May 5, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


James McAvoy & Michael Fassbender gained a lot of fans as Professor X and Magneto in X-Men: First Class. However a lot of the internet isn’t satisfied with them purely ending up as frenemies – they want them to be banging one another on the side.

That has resulted in a lot of slash-fiction and homemade gay fan art.

However, what does it feel like to have stranger drawing pictures of you getting up close and person with your co-star? Well, Graham Norton decided to find out when he had McAvoy and Fassbender (and Hugh Jackman) on his chat show to promote the upcoming X-Men: Days Of Future Past.

You can see what they thought above (and as so often with Norton’s show, it does seem to help that the guests are allowed to have a few drinks).

It has to be said though, compared to the pictures some people have drawn, the images they’re shown are a little tame. But what did you expect, this is mainstream UK TV after all?

Anna Paquin’s Will Be In X-Men: Days of Future Past After All

April 17, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

anna-paquin-rogueBack in December director Bryan Singer revealed that while Anna Paquin had spent a few days on the X-Men: Days Of Future Past set, reprising her role as Rogue, her scene had ended up on the cutting room floor.

However now further editing and reshoots has put her back in, with 20th Century Fox is confirming that the actress will feature in the movie.

When it appeared she’d been cut, Singer said, “Through the editing process, the sequence became extraneous. It’s a really good sequence and it will probably end up on the DVD so people can see it. But like many things in the editing process, it was an embarrassment of riches and it was just one of the things that had to go. Unfortunately, it was the one and only sequence Anna Paquin was in, the Rogue character was in. Even though she’s in the materials and part of the process of making the film, she won’t appear in it. She did a fantastic job. She was awesome in the sequence. She’s a brilliant actress. I would work with her in a heartbeat. She completely understood. It’s very disappointing, but she’s very professional and she knows that stuff happens, particularly with material you shoot early on in production. Films evolve.”

That seemed to be it for the return of Rogue, even though she continued to be used in some marketing materials. Then people noticed her name in the end credits for recent final trailer, which caused a Fox representative to confirm her return, while cautioning that, “Essentially, [it’s] a cameo.”

You’ll be able to see exactly how much Rogue we’ll get in May.

Final X-Men: Days Of Future Past Trailer Arrives – All the Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, James McAvoy & Michael Fassbender you can handle

April 16, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Barely a day goes by without something new from the world of X-Men: Days Of Future Past, which perhaps isn’t surprising considering Fox has spent more on the film than any other except Avatar. It’s also true that when you look at the grosses of X-Men movie, they’re successful but not hits on a par with many other superhero movies.

However now they’ve released the final main trailer, which throws everything at the wall to show that this going to be one enormous action-packed movies with more mutant shenanigans than most films could handle.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘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 Clip – The sentinels attack mutants old and new

April 15, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Fox has a lot riding on X-Men: Days Of Future Past. It’s the second most expensive movie they’ve ever made. And if this clip is anything to go by, they’re certainly thrown every at it.

The minute’s action comes from the opening battle, when mutants from the original film trilogy – along with a few new ones – have to do battle with the evil sentinels. It’s certainly looking good.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘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 Trailer – Can one film handle this many famous mutants?

March 24, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


X-Men: Days of Future Past always looked like it was gonna be a big movie, but it’s not until this trailer that we’ve been able to see just how massive it is. The idea of the two X-Men casts coming together is exciting enough, but that’s only one part of this trailer, which really piled on some enormous effects-filled set-pieces.

Now we can’t wait until the movie’s May release.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘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.’

Take a look at the trailer where the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, Ian McKellen, James McAvoy, Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Ellen Page, Nicholas Hoult, Peter Dinklage and Halle Berry are only the beginning of the new and old faces we’ll get to see.

Oh, and enjoy the new poster below. [Read more…]

Wolverine 3 Coming After X-Men: Apocalypse, But Will Hugh Jackman Return?

March 17, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The-Wolverine-preview-pic6Fox sure loves the X-Men. They’ve spent more on the upcoming Days Of Future Past than on any film in the studio’s history other than Avatar, and even though that film hasn’t been release yet, they’re already deep in development on X-Men: Apocalypse.

And it seems that’s not the end of the plans, as The Wolverine director James Mangold has tweeted that after that movie comes Apocalypse comes Wolverine 3.

He says, ‘@R__E__D_R__U__M @20centuryfox @ShuDonner We are figuring it all out. At the moment, I’m shooting The next #Wolverine after #XmenApocalypse.— Mangold (@mang0ld)’

That leaves some big questions though, the biggest of which being whether Hugh Jackman will star in it. He’s suggested that after Days Of Future Past he wants to take a break from the character. He’s been playing Wolverine now for 14 years in seven different movies, which is longer than anyone has stuck with a single superhero character. He may well be enticed back, but it’s likely Fox will move forward with the character whether Jackman is on board on not.

As Mangold point out on Twitter, ‘With cost of 117M and WW gross of 415M (#2 of all X’s), of course there’ll be another Wolverine solo. Manufactured internet drama is boring!’

However with two other mutant movies to hit cinemas before Wolverine 3, don’t expect it until 2017 at the earliest.

Ian McKellen Reflects On X-Men’s Strong Parallels To Gay Rights

February 25, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

x-men-day-of-future-past-character-pic5For a long time people have compared the mutants of X-Men to the gay rights struggle – a group of people whose inborn difference separates them from society and who have to battle a society who are prejudiced against them just because of who they think they may be rather than who they actually are.

It’s something the X-Men movies haven’t shied away from, although while the first two films were directed by the gay Bryan Singer, the LGBT parallels were probably highest in the Bret Ratner helmed X-Men: The Last Stand. In that the mutants had to decide whether to accept a ‘cure’ to their powers or fight back and be proud of who they are. (Ironically Ratner has since been embroiled in accusations of homophobia.)

Now Ian McKellen has been talking about the links between the superheroes and all things gay. Buzzfeed quotes him as saying about how he first became involved in the movies as Megneto, “I was sold it by Bryan [Singer] who said, ‘Mutants are like gays. They’re cast out by society for no good reason… And, as in all civil rights movements, they have to decide: Are they going to take the Xavier [Patrick Stewart] line — which is to somehow assimilate and stand up for yourself and be proud of what you are, but get on with everybody — or are you going to take the alternative view [McKellen’s character’s] — which is, if necessary, use violence to stand up for your own rights. And that’s true. I’ve come across that division within the gay rights movement.”

McKellen believes it’s no surprise that, according to Marvel, young Jewish, Black, and gay people are the biggest readers of the X-Men comics. “These are all people who, well, feel a little bit like mutants,” he says.

As for whether it’s worth being out and proud, he says, “I feel sorry for anyone who feels the need to lie about themselves. That’s not good for you. It doesn’t lead to a happy life. And I’ve never met a gay person who came out and who regretted it. Never. So, my advice to anyone in the closet — it doesn’t matter whether they’re a teacher, or a politician, or a priest, or an actor — come out. Join the human race.”

He adds of his own life, “I often thought my gravestone would say, ‘Here lies Gandalf. He came out… Those are two of the proudest achievements that I’ve got. I think I’ve been a part of the rapid sensible movement towards an understanding that gay people are the same as the rest of you and should be treated equally by the law, by society.”
