'X-Men: Days of Future Past': Michael Vaughn won't direct
There’s a superhero-sized switch-up going on with the sequel to 20th Century Fox’s X-Men: First Class.
EW has confirmed that Matthew Vaughn has decided not to direct the film, which he co-wrote, titled X-Men: Days of Future Past. The movie is a spinoff of last year’s X-Men: First Class, which Vaughn directed and also co-wrote.
While Deadline reports that Bryan Singer, who launched the X-Men franchise with 2000’s X-Men, is on a short list to helm the sequel, Singer’s reps at William Morris had no comment when reached by EW. Singer is already named as a producer on X-Men: Days of Future Past. He also co-produced X-Men: First Class.
Will the movie’s slated 2014 release date change with the switch? Time will tell.
