Speaking to Heat Radio<\/a><\/em> about Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Days Of Future Past<\/em>, James McAvoy, who plays the younger Charles Xavier, accidentally confirmed the return of Alan Cummings to the ensemble.<\/p>\n

“You got me, [Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender,] Nicholas Hoult will be back, and he’s just blossoming massively over [in America],” he said.<\/p>\n

“Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Halle Berry, Alan Cumming, Peter Dinklage I hear mentioned – I don’t know if that’s happening – ‘Huge’ Jackman is coming by, he’s massive, 7’5″ and muscly.”<\/p>\n

Cummings played fan-favourite teleporter Nightcrawler in 2003’s X-Men 2<\/em>, although the strenuous make-up process ruled out his cameo in X-Men 3: The Last Stand<\/em>, the actor went on to voice the character in X-Men: The Official Game<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Pick up X-Men: The Ultimate Collection<\/em>, containing all five films so far, on Blu-ray for £19.75<\/a> and DVD for £15.29<\/a> from Amazon<\/a>.co.uk. X-Men: Days Of Future Past<\/em> is due in cinemas 18 July 2014.<\/strong><\/p>\n
