... okay, not much of a challenge.
A few weeks ago, it was announced Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch would be in Avengers 2. Now Singer says Quicksilver will be in Days of Future Past. So is someone fibbing, or some amazing dealing going on?

I saw a quote from a Marvel producer (or someone important) saying that the X-Men license is kind of weird. Basically FOX has a perpetual license but Marvel Studios can use the characters in movies too. So it's not an exclusive license but FOX doesn't have to worry about it expiring. So I guess in theory Marvel could make their own X-Men movie that would compete with FOX's X-Men franchise. I guess. It's definitely weird. But yes it's supposedly true. Quicksilver will appear in both movies, presumably portrayed by different actors (although it would be awesome if they could get the same actor).

lol. What I have read so far, Marvel cannot refer to him as a mutant or his paternal issues, while Fox cannot mention the Avengers. I hope Marvel doesn't keep too Close to the Ultimates version of him and Wanda

I remember reading a while back that Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch were in that weird position of being available to both Fox and Marvel Studios. Not all the X-Men, just those two, because of their strong Avengers ties. I wasn't surprised by the news but it's definitely weird to hear about Quicksilver being in the news like this. I mean, he's not the most popular X-Men OR Avengers character! What a world we live in now!

I suppose Beast could potentially be in that same position, having had a good long stint as an Avenger in the '70s.

didn't he also have a more recent stint, before Nightcrawler died?
