With the X-Men: Days Of Future Past shoot approaching fast, director Bryan Singer is busy putting the final touches to the cast. In the last few weeks the news has been mainly about the slew of old X-Men who will be returning to the franchise, such as Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh Jackman, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, and Shawn Ashmore (with Halle Berry likely if a few contract details can be sorted).
Then a few days ago it was revealed Peter Dinklage had joined the movie and now Director Bryan Singer has revealed yet another new cast member, with The Intouchables (Untouchable) star Omar Sy signing on for an unspecified role.
Singer tweeted, ‘Thrilled to welcome the brilliant #OmarSy from the amazing film #TheIntouchables to the cast of #Xmen#DaysofFuturePast!— Bryan Singer’

The film took $28.1 million in its first weekend in US cinemas, which isn’t a complete disaster, but considering the movie cost nearly $200 million to make, it’s now going to have to rely on becoming a major success outside North America if it hopes to make its money back.
With a high-profile remake on the way, many fans of Evil Dead had presumed that meant we’d never get another instalment of Sam Raimi’s original series. However Sam doesn’t seem to think the do-over should stop him from making an Evil Dead 4, as 
Even before Sinister was released, writers Scott Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill were already talking about a sequel, however it’s only now that the film has been officially announced. 
Pride & Prejudice & Zombies made. Actors like Natalie Portman have been attached, while a revolving door of directors came and went. It got to the point where it seems the film had fallen into development hell never to return, but now it’s back on the radar, as Panorama Media has announced they are joining Darko Entertainment, Handsomecharlie Films and producer Allison Shearmur to produce the film Pride, Prejudice and Zombies.
