The cast for X-Men: Days of Future Past is big as it is, because we will see a lot of actors from the original trilogy in this one, as well as some of the cast from First Class. But, since there are other roles to be filled, you can add one more name to the list -- Peter Dinklage, from the great HBO series Game of Thrones. Director Bryan Singer posted this on his official Twitter account:

X-Men: Days of Future Past is based on a classic comic book storyline, which deals "with a dystopian alternative future in which mutants are incarcerated in internment camps." The arc also features the Sentinels, who rule the United States. Bryan Singer is directing the film, with Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore, Ellen Page and Peter Dinklage starring in the upcoming sequel.

BANE5000 - 2/13/2013, 7:10 PM
He's gonna play Sugar man from AoA storyline :]
exodus147 - 2/13/2013, 7:10 PM
Mini-Sentinel? Sorry had to say it. As a Canadian I'd love to see Alpha Flight.
BIGBMH - 2/13/2013, 7:10 PM
My excitement level for this movie just rose.
Spartan - 2/13/2013, 7:11 PM
He'd make a great Puck.
ahhmynuts - 2/13/2013, 7:12 PM

Tainted87 - 2/13/2013, 7:12 PM
One day I will put down the $$$ to watch Game of Thrones.
KidZombie - 2/13/2013, 7:13 PM
[frick]! Would love that kart wheeling Canadian in this movie!
I'm so In!!

Watch he just be "mutant member number 2"
Which reminds me, Puck is not a mutant. Hmmm...
santoanderson - 2/13/2013, 7:14 PM
He'll be providing mocap for the Sentinels.
DeadManDann - 2/13/2013, 7:14 PM
Yeah, gotta be Puck.
JatevinM - 2/13/2013, 7:14 PM
LMAO they may motion capture and CGI him taller and he could be Nightcralwer XD
CaptainKilgore - 2/13/2013, 7:15 PM
Mo cap for Lockheed?
marvel72 - 2/13/2013, 7:15 PM
@ valeriesghost

its alright there is only a minute between comments & you know what they say about great minds thinking alike.
thewonderer - 2/13/2013, 7:16 PM
@LEVITIKUZ

Does a little show called Game of Thrones mean anything to you?

Small jokes? Hah, he gets pussy, is wealthy, smart, and badass.

Dinklage for the win!
PantherX - 2/13/2013, 7:16 PM
Nice. Has got to be Puck.
randomizer9870 - 2/13/2013, 7:17 PM
Looks like we found our Puck
MARVELPSYCHO79 - 2/13/2013, 7:17 PM
Today has been full of Bryan Singer and X-Men news.
gambgel - 2/13/2013, 7:19 PM
what a surprise, lol This movie is becoming into the Lord of the rings of superhero movies lol

about his role....... he could have done a cool version of Toad, but highly doubt Singer gives us a second Toad on the same universe, so probably an unexpected mutant, or human role
nach1wan - 2/13/2013, 7:20 PM
wow... just wow
wolverinesfury - 2/13/2013, 7:20 PM
Damn and I wanted him as the Mad Hatter in the Batman reboot.
KeefNCookies - 2/13/2013, 7:23 PM
P.Dink for the win! Wonder what role he'll play...
sameoldthing - 2/13/2013, 7:23 PM
Why a hero character like Puck?
I say he should portray the short-statured villain known as ARCADE!
MitchConner - 2/13/2013, 7:23 PM
I was excited about this movie, until Singwr hoped on...I hated the original trilogy
KraftB0X - 2/13/2013, 7:24 PM
Voice of Master Mold.... derp....
JatevinM - 2/13/2013, 7:26 PM
Its entirely possible that you know....he is playing a human
RPD - 2/13/2013, 7:30 PM
They'll probably just make someone up. It's not like FOX pays attention to the source material much anyways...
victoryismine82 - 2/13/2013, 7:30 PM
Mystique shapeshifts into Peter Dinklage to appear unthreatening and then devises a plan to throw wildfire into Blackwater Bay...err...the X-Mansion.
Viltrumite - 2/13/2013, 7:33 PM
as excited as I am for Days of Future Past (it's my number one most anticipated superhero movie right now), who -isn't- in the movie by this point?

Besides Cyclops, because [frick] Brett Ratner
TheHeat - 2/13/2013, 7:34 PM
That imp is going to play a Sentinel, isn't he?
erth2drew - 2/13/2013, 7:35 PM
pock fersure
NovaCorpsfan - 2/13/2013, 7:37 PM
Puck... If they bring in Puck and no other Alpha Flight characters then [frick] this.
Luigi - 2/13/2013, 7:39 PM
He'll probably just be some CIA guy (which is fine)
HAILHYDRA - 2/13/2013, 7:41 PM
Holy F*** it's Puck!
nerdman81 - 2/13/2013, 7:44 PM
Relegating Peter Dinklage to a side character would be a shame. That's why I don't think it'll be Puck he plays. As someone above mentioned, I could see him as Trask! Whether he's involved or not though, this movie is going to suck just as bad as FC did, which was quite a lot! It is much too early in this particular point in the franchise to take on such a huge storyline as DoFP! Fits perfectly with the screwed up continuity, and their desire to wipe their asses with any and all source material to make sub par-standard par X films.
cmax - 2/13/2013, 7:46 PM
KaneRomita - 2/13/2013, 7:51 PM
Don't know who he'd be but I'm guessing a villain. Trask kinda makes sense.. Little guy makes HUGE robots...? And I don't think there've been any announcements about who is playing the other villain yet (can't just be Magneto) I'm guessing he'd be a 70's character but who knows.?

Maybe a remnant of the Hellfire Club.??

Peter Corbeau.?

the Watcher.?
