Every studio with a “sure fire” summer blockbuster in the works waits until San Diego Comic-Con to make their big announcements. So it should come as no surprise that FOX would unveil these awesome X-Men: Days of Future Past portraits, which includes our very first look at Omar Sy as Bishop!!! It’s been long rumored that Sy would portray the time traveling mutant, but now it’s been officially confirmed. And boy does Sy look spot on! The red sash, the awesome dreads and of course the dreaded M brand across his right eye.
FOX also unveiled five other character portraits including Patrick Stewart as Professor X, Ian McKellen as Magneto, and Daniel Cudmore as Colossus from the original X-Men trilogy and Nicholas Hoult as Beast, and Lucas Till as Havok from X-Men: First Class. They also had an awesome display of an actual Sentinel head from the film. I wondered how accurate the film’s Sentinels would be to the source material and from this head it looks pretty spot on! Can’t wait to find out more about the product of X-Men: Days of Future Past and its continuously growing cast.
