X-Men: Days of Future Past is a 2014 superhero film based on the fictional X-Men characters that
appear in Marvel Comics. Directed by Bryan Singer, it is the seventh installment of the X-Men film series and acts as a sequel to both 2006's X-Men: The Last Stand and 2011's X-Men: First Class. The story, inspired by the 1981 Uncanny X-Men storyline "Days of Future Past" produced byChris Claremont and John
Byrne, focuses on two time
periods and Wolverine going to 1973 to save the future of
mankind. The film stars an ensemble cast,
including Hugh Jackman, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Halle Berry, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Nicholas Hoult, Shawn Ashmore, Peter Dinklage, Ian McKellen, and Patrick Stewart. Simon Kinberg wrote the screenplay from a story conceived by him, Matthew Vaughn, and Jane
Goldman.
The film is a British-American co-production with a budget of US$200
million. Principal photography began in Montreal, Quebec in April 2013 and
concluded in August the same year, with additional filming and pick-ups taking place in November 2013 and February 2014. The film
premiered in New York City on May 10, 2014, and was theatrically released on
May 23.
X-Men: Days of Future Past received critical acclaim, becoming the best-reviewed film
in the X-Men series. Reviewers commended its fresh visual
style, story, and acting. It is also the highest-grossing film in the series,
having earned over $745 million worldwide. A sequel, X-Men: Apocalypse,
is scheduled for release on May 27, 2016, with Singer returning to direct.
