Director of X-Men: Days of Future Past Bryan Singer has been tweeting casting and production gems from the set of the movie, and we’re super excited that the latest addition is one of our favorite cult members from the television show The Following.
We’ll I should say WAS one of our favorite cult members, and now that he’s no longer on the show, Adan Canto (Paul on The Following) will have plenty of time for his new project, which will likely involve fire according to the tweet. Check out the first tweet (which is actually retweet of Bryan Singer‘s but Adan Canto is sort of new at Twitter so we forgive him the missing “RT”).

“@kristagaz: @adancanto no hints on your new projects??” 1) I might turn into a ball of fire if someone pisses me off.

So the speculation is that he will be playing Sunspot. Thoughts?
