Bryan Singer is one of those directors who has fully embraced his fans and made them a part of the movie making process. Earlier today, he took a break from editing X-Men: Days of Future Past, to answer some questions from fans via Twitter. Check it out below:
Q: How would you characterize the tone and style of Days of Future Past?
A: Though there is a great deal of humor, the overall tone is a bit darker than previous films, particularly because of the stakes.
Q: Stylistically, First Class echoed the Bond movies of the 60s. Should we expect DoFP to echo 70s cinema in some fashion?
A: Yes, in the colors, some of the style & music. I also used 16 & 8mm footage which I operated myself for some scenes which was fun.
Q: How many new X-Men characters are in the new film?
A: A lot – Blink, Bishop, Sunspot, Warpath, Ink, Quicksilver, etc.
Q: Is there any X-Men character that you haven’t used that you would like to?
A: Yeah, Gambit, Deadpool, and a few others I’d rather not mention.
Q: What scene are you editing right now?
A: I’m tinkering with a piece in the opening that helps set up the story – but I’m in a good place with the cut. A bit ahead of schedule.
Q: Mystique has been a fun character to see in the movies. What can we expect to see from her in DoFP?
A: She’s a much more hardened kick-ass character than she was in First Class.
Q: Will we finally get to see the Sentinels in action?
A: Yes. :)
Q: What was the funniest moment on set with the entire cast?
A: In between shooting a serious scene on Xavier’s private jet, Michael, Nick, Hugh and James dancing to #BlurredLines #IHaveTheFootage
