The pieces are falling into place, forming what may eventually become an all-out reunion for Bryan Singer and the casts of both the?X-Men trilogy and its prequel,?X-Men: First Class. We?ve known the potential of returning appearances of familiar characters since Singer confirmed the film?s title,?X-Men: Days of Future Past, based on the title of the famous time-travel story arc from Marvel Comics, but it wasn?t until yesterday did we learn it?s actually happening.

Screen Rant had a humble start back in 2003 as a place to rant about some of the dumber stuff related to the movie industry. Since then, the site has grown to cover more and more TV and movie news (and not just the dumb stuff) along with sometimes controversial movie reviews. The goal at Screen Rant is to cover stories and review movies from a middle ground/average person perspective.

Bryan Singer ? taking over the director?s seat from Matthew Vaughn who may or may not be directing?Star Wars Episode 7 ? happily confirmed that?Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen will be back for the next?X-Men team-up and as we suspected, they will likely be joined by franchise star Hugh Jackman.

According to?THR, Jackman is currently in negotiations with Fox to return for what will be his sixth portrayal of the adamantium-laced feral mutant (the seventh being a cameo in?X-Men: First Class). This would further solidify his status as the actor who holds the record for playing the same superhero character in the most films.

Jackman?loves playing Wolverine and previously went on record saying he?s not in it for the money. He?s even producing?The Wolverine, which tells the tale of Logan?s travels to Japan ? a story that Jackman wanted to be a part of ever since he joined?X-Men. Three years ago, when?X-Men Origins: Wolverine debuted, he jokingly said he?d play the character ?eleven more? times.

?I always say, ?oh, I?m never doing another one,? until I see the script. It has to be something. But in the superhero world, those kind of movies, ?Wolverine? is by far the most interesting? So I?ll do eleven more and that?s it!?
