Latest X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST BTS Image Teases Presence Of Trask Industries

Further evidence of the identity of Peter Dinklage's villain, Bryan Singer has tweeted a new behind-the-scenes still from the set of X-Men: Days Of Future Past which seemingly confirms the presence of Trask Industries.

Ever since the Game Of Thrones actor signed on to join the cast, Peter Dinklage has been rumored to be playing Bolivar Trask in director Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days Of Future Past. This makes perfect sense as the character is known as the creator of the Sentinels, who appeared in the "Days Of Future Past" comic book storyline and will likely be featured in the film adaptation. However, Bolivar Trask was already in the X-Men movie universe before - he was played by Bill Duke (who looks nothing like Dinklage) in 2006's The Last Stand.

However, Singer has shared another BTS image from the movie on his Twitter account, and it seemingly confirms that Trask Industries will be featured in X-Men: Days Of Future Past. In the one-shot What If...Magneto & Professor X Had Formed the X-Men Together?, this organization was led by Larry Trask, a mutant who is the son of Bolivar. The character has also been depicted as a villain of the X-Men. Could this be who Peter Dinklage is playing (despite the actor being spotted in 1970s style clothing on set recently)? Share your thoughts and speculation in the comments below.






X-Men: Days Of Future Past stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh Jackman, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Ellen Page, Halle Berry, Peter Dinklage, Anna Paquin and Shawn Ashmore. The film is set to hit theaters July 18th, 2014.

how the hell Peter Dinklage has been rumored to be play Bolivar Trask. Bolivar Trask was in X-Men: The Last Stand and he was played by actor Bill Duke who is African American.

Bolivar trask was not in the last stand. Just because they called one throwaway character "trask" doesn't mean he's bolivar.
gambgel
gambgel - 5/28/2013, 12:14 PM
yeah, he was called "Secretary Trask"

so even if Ratner wanted Bill to be Bolivar Trask in another movie, that character just wasnt the real Bolivar Trask from the comics and tv shows. so to hell with their intentions with Last Stand.

Will people please stop bringing up Bill Duke? His character in The Last Stand could have been called anything else because it had nothing to do with the Sentinels.

How bout you tweet that you've seen the light, and are leaving this franchise alone after this film? That kinda tweet would make a brotha do the happy dance for reals.

oh, Fox did a trading card of Bolivar Trask, what a great work!

whatever, Singer will use the character as an actual villain, not like any random secretary Trask with no connection to sentinels.

@jazzman that character was only ever called 'Trask', plus Fox are constantly recycling their characters (see: Emma Frost, Quicksilver (cameo in Origins), Beast (including his X2 cameo), Sebastain Shaw (including his X2 cameo), etc.) so this could just be more of the same.

@Clem: Good to be back sir. Man I swear...I would give up a months pay to read that they are rebooting this trash after this movie. I think X-men fans across the globe would react like this.

"I'm here to fix continuity," said Bryan Singer.
"How?" asked everyone.
"Well, I'll have a white dwarf play an established African American senator as an evil scientist, then I'll have other characters established in that same movie reprise their roles and then I'll magically undo X-Men 3," replied Singer.
"Okay, as long as Wolverine mostly cries," demanded everyone.
"He's the best there is at what he does, and what he does is cry and do dance-action poses!"
"Hurrah, this will truly be better than the Avengers, so long as their there's still terrible wire work!" cheered everyone.

@Jock,
This might confirm sentinels based on the logo.

They're from different time periods. If Delinkage's Trask was around the time of X3 he would be slightly older than Bill Dukes Trask

Delinkage was hired because he's famous due to Game of Thrones and Singer just want to be in on the act too. He hires actors due to how well established they are rather than whether they resemble the character from the comic book. Like First Class Singer is relying on the fact that people have the memory span of a flea.
