Speculation: Puck To Appear In X-Men:Days Of Future Past Film? *UPDATED*

X-Men: Days Of Future Past direct Bryan Singer set the internet rumour-mill alight with talk of Puck appearing in the next X-Men film when he tweeted:

"Officially like to welcome #PeterDinklage from #GameOfThrones to #XMEN #DaysofFuturePast Very very excited!"


While nothing official has been set, it has echoes of Puck's appearance in the Frank Tieri written Weapon X: Days Of Future Now series where he was part of the X-Men; something that's a lot more realistic now that he's part of Uncanny X-Force.

Whether or not Dinklage's role actually turns out to be Puck or not it's definitely a good year for Eugene so far!

Although we've seen members of Alpha Flight mentioned in text on screens in X2 and the 'Heather & Travis Hudson' characters in X-Men Origins:Wolverine if true this would mark the first Alphan to appear on the big screen.

X-Men: Days Of Future Past is scheduled for 2014.


UPDATE:
Variety have reported that they've learnt from 'sources' that Dinklage is to play the main villain in the film.

While there could be a chance that Puck is a villain as the movie-verse doesn't have to be true to the comics, it does seem likely that he's not going to play Puck.
Although the 'sources' could be incorrect Dinklage playing a major part sounds a lot more feasible.
