Screenwriter Simon Kinberg recently spoke with IGN Filmforce about how the next "X-Men" film shoot is going and brought up some issues many fans still have questions over regarding the sequel.
About Director Brett Ratner's work he says "He's staying loyal to the tone of the first two films, but he's making this movie more visceral and emotional. Since we're dealing with one of the most intense storylines in X-Men history, he knows how important emotion is... I think this film is much more emotional than I ever imagined. There are some really heart-breaking moments and the performances are so damn good, beyond my wildest expectations".
He confirmed that Gambit definitely ain't involved - "There's still not enough room for every great character, so we have to make sacrifices sometimes. Like Gambit. I'm a huge Gambit fan, but we knew there wasn't enough space to do him justice, so he'll have to wait till X4".
Will there be more films in the series? "We didn't write the script with the next movies in mind. But it's definitely not the end of the series. I know they [20th Century Fox and Marvel Studios] plan on making Wolverine and more X-Men movies. We wrote the script as the end of a trilogy, the end of one cycle. The next movies will start a new cycle".
Thanks to 'Stax'.
