Collider has just published about their visit to the set of the new X-Men film, “Days of Future Past.” Anna Paquin as the character, “Rogue” is mentioned several times. The rumors are still alive that Anna’s part hasn’t been cut from the film, but so far the only confirmation we have been able to confirm is that we will get to see her on the DVD.
You may remember, we first reported that Anna’s appearance in the film had been cut from the final version, and then later, when the series of character magazine cover were released, and there was one of Anna, raising lots of speculation that the character would be restored to the film and definitely on the DVD.
Now, here’s more talk about her from the Collider’s set visit. Since they don’t talk about her in the ‘past tense’ in these snippets, there still could be hope for her being in the theatrical release, but we still don’t know for sure. Stay tuned as we will report it, if things change.
Director, Bryan Singer has a very cute quote about Anna’s personality through the years.
INGER: Like with the actors? Like their habits?
SINGER:Yeah there are some things. There’s nothing I try to avoid with them because we want to try new things and do things we haven’t done before, we don’t just want to repeat scenes from X-Men 1 and 2. But there’s definitely a short hand…..Personalities hadn’t changed at all, personalities toward me haven’t changed at all, particularly Anna Paquin who teases me. Like when she was 17/18 on those early films, I was her verbal punching bag, and then I would torture her by blowing off horns and firing guns sound effects in the middle of scenes and stuff. Now she’s like a thirty year old mother and she’s going at me, so it’s the same thing…
And, in the interview with Producer Simon Kinberg:
We heard there were a lot of time constraints with certain actors, like Halle Berry was only available for two days, or Anna Paquin for a week, is that something that you knew going into writing the script, or was that last minute adjustments?
KINBERG: …And then, once the schedules and the contracts got done, and I knew what I’d have, especially Anna and Halle for, I did adjust the script for their schedules. But not much for Anna ….
Well, it’s a good sign that they don’t talk about Anna in the past tense, fingers crossed.
