'X-Men: Days of Future Past': First Look at Nicholas Hoult as Beast
This morning Bryan Singer, director of the forthcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past, gave fans a first look at one of the film's character when he tweeted a photo of Beast, played by 23-year-old British actor Nicholas Hoult, who also played Beast in 2011's X-Men First Class.
Accompanying the photo was this quote: “Many a monster wears the form of a man; it is better of the two to have the heart of a man & the form of a monster.” (Many thanks to TheWrap.com for pointing out that the quote is from Jeanne Marie Le Prince de Beaumont's Beauty And The Beast, published in 1756.)
X-Men: Days Of Future Past, stars Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Hugh Jackman and Halle Berry. The film opens nationwide July 18, 2014.
