But then something funny happened: X-Men: Days of Future Past actually came out, and Quicksilver’s big sequence ended up being one of the highlights of the entire 2014 blockbuster movie season.
In a recent chat with IGN, the other Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) says that Bryan Singer’s take on the character was “brilliant. And a lot of fun. I enjoyed it.” But he also explains how his take is different, how the connection to his twin sister (Scarlet Witch, who was pretty much absent from DoFP) is vital to the character, and how this version will be much more connected to the books.
The clip is only 1:45 long. You should give it a look to hear his comments on Quicksilver.
