First look at James McAvoy on set of X-Men: Days Of Future Past

Bryan Singer’s steady stream of on-set images from X-Men: Days Of Future Past continues apace, with James McAvoy the latest to make an appearance.

The young Professor Xavier can be seen sporting a rather loud shirt and shoulder-length hair, about as far-removed from his suit-clad, chrome-domed older self as could be imagined.

Meanwhile, the rumour mill is buzzing with word of another old face returning for action, with reports claiming that James Marsden’s Cyclops will be making an appearance in the new film.

A former Newsday journalist spotted Marsden sitting next to Halle Berry on a flight to Montreal where the film is currently shooting. Whether this means Cyclops will be resurrected is a matter of conjecture, but it does seem something of a coincidence if not...

Directed by Singer and co-starring Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence and Peter Dinklage, X-Men: Days Of Future Past will open in the UK on 18 July 2014.
