Famke Janssen Not Sure If Jean Grey Will Return For X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
While chatting at the Hansel and Gretle press junket, Famke Janssen was asked, again, about her possibly appearing in X-Men: Days Of Future Past where she said she is up for it, but has not been contacted yet.
There have been a number of cast members from Bryan Singer's first X-Men franchise who have joined X-Men: Days Of Future Past. Sir Patrick Stewart, Sir Ian McKellen, and Hugh Jackman have already been confirmed for the film, with most of the original cast from First Class returning as well. Famke Janssen was asked by SHH at the Hansel and Gretle press junket if we can expect her in DOFP. "I'm sitting by the phone waiting, call me up Bryan! I think their challenge is that I died as Jean Grey and I died as the Phoenix, so what else can they do? If they bring a younger version back, they'll have to get a younger actress, so what is there left to do," she asked. Janssen is rumored to have a cameo role in the upcoming Wolverine movie.
Janssen has also teased that she might be returning to the franchise as well. Whether that tease was about her Wolverine cameo or coming back to possibly do Days of Future Past only time will tell. Shooting for DOFP is scheduled to happen around April, so be on the look out here at CBM as more characters are announced for the film.
