Yep, this guy is going to be in Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Days Of Future Past. We know this because Bryan Singer just tweeted that this guy will be in X-Men: Days Of Future Past.
Officially like to welcome #PeterDinklage from #GameOfThrones to #XMEN #DaysofFuturePast Very very excited!

Peter Dinklage in the new X-Men movie. I think we can all get behind this.
…mmmmaybe?
Obviously the tweet provides no detail about part, but the Marvel universe isn’t exactly silly with characters of Dinklage’s stature. Puck is an obvious go-to choice, though I’m not 100% that he’s under Fox’s control rather than Marvel proper. Still the Alpha Flight character is a mutant (from Canada!) so Puck is as safe a guess as any. Of course, he could also be playing a non-canon character.
He’s certainly not playing MODOK, as one Captain America writer has suggested in the past.
Either way, we’ll keep an eye on how this shapes up. But as the premiere of Game Of Thrones season 3 approaches, I think there’s going to be a lot of excitement swarming around this particular casting choice.
