Whilst during the first three films Page’s character Kitty Pryde or Shadowcat as she’s referred to at times has appeared in previous original trilogy, her part has been low key however for X-Men:Days Of Future Past her role is pivotal.In the 1981 comicbook Kitty Pryde who became a fully fledged X-Men Member in Last Stand in the comic her astrally-projected future self takes over her body in the past to warn the X-Men to alter the future. With her appearance now confirmed this may suggest Bryan Singer is staying close to the comic book’s story the film will be based on but as the First Class universe is the main focus there might be some alterations in order here.
With production about to start expect more news to appear soon.
Out of the First Class cast only Jennifer Lawrence, James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender have been confirmed so far. X-Men:Days Of Future Past is set for a 18th July 2014 release date.
