− | *While director Matthew Vaughn was still signed on to do sequels to ''X-Men: First Class'', his plan was to do a film set in the 1970s that featured the ''First Class'' characters and a younger version of Wolverine, who would have been played by Tom Hardy or another actor. ''Days of Future Past'' was planned as the finale to the trilogy, which involved Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen reprising their roles for the film. However, when Vaughn completed the ''Days of Future Past'' script and presented it to 20th Century Fox, the studio liked it so much that they decided to immediately go ahead with ''Days of Future Past'' as the sequel to ''First Class'' instead of Vaughn's original idea. This was one of the reasons why Vaughn left the ''X-Men'' films to work on ''Kingsman'' instead, as he felt that the film executives were rushing to do ''Days of Future Past'' instead of building up to it properly.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20190601084040/https://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/1071905-exclusive-matthew-vaughn-wanted-young-wolverine-for-first-class-sequel Exclusive: Matthew Vaughn Talks His Plans for First Class Sequels]</ref> |
