X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST (2014): Magneto, Bent Bullet, JFK Video

The Bent Bullet X-Men Days Of Future Past

X-Men Days Of Future Past JFK Viral Video. Bryan Singer‘s X-Men: Days Of Future Past (2014) viral video dealing with President  John F. Kennedy has been released and is very interesting. The “Magic Bullet” theory has always been a question when it comes to the assassination of JFK. Singer and company have taken that theory and added some magnetism via Magneto (Michael Fassbender) to it for incorporation into Singer’s third X-Men film.

On how the assassination will be used in X-Men: Days Of Future Past:

Months before Simon Kinberg was first announced as the writer of the film, First Class director Matthew Vaughn explained exactly this idea as one of their jumping-off points:

‘I thought it would be fun to open with the Kennedy assassination, and we reveal that the magic bullet was controlled by Magneto. That would explain the physics of it, and we see that he’s pissed off because Kennedy took all the credit for saving the world and mutants weren’t even mentioned.’

We’ll see how some of this plays out, and how the character’s suspected role in the killing of a US President leads to the creation of mutant-hunting Sentinels
