Famke Janssen keen on X-Men return

It seems that every other day now we hear more chatter about who is and isn't going to be involved in X-Men: Days Of Future Past . And while yesterday had January Jones seemingly ruling herself out , today sees Famke Janssen putting herself very much in the frame.

With Hugh Jackman already confirmed and Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart also thought to be on board, Janssen is keen to take her place alongside her old cohorts, although she hasn't been confirmed yet.

"If you run into Bryan Singer, just tell him I’ve been sitting by the phone," she joked to Collider . "I’ve been hearing rumours of all these people getting cast. What about me? I’m waiting…"

She also went on to discuss singer's approach to superhero movies, and why he's such an attractive prospect to work with.

"With the X-Men, Bryan Singer was very clear we need to base this in reality," she explains. "We’re not going to be making the regular superhero movie everybody else has been making up to now. These are just regular people with regular problems."

X-Men: Days Of Future Past opens in the UK on 18 July 2014.
