It’s hard to believe now, but two years have passed since Marvel served ‘X-Men: First Class‘ to the world via ‘Layer Cake’ genius Mathew Vaughn.

Now, before ‘X-Men: The Wolverine‘ is set to drop July 26th, Halle Berry-who played Storm in the original flick- has confirmed that she is to reprise her role as the white haired wonder for forthcoming effort, ‘X-Men: Days Of Future Past‘.

Set for launch on 18th July 2014, the Bryan Singer directed flick will also star the majority of the brand’s original cast, which includes ‘Les Miserables’ Hugh Jackman and HBO‘s golden girl Anna Paquin, who now enjoys household name status following the launch of the networks’ bloody series, ‘True Blood’.

On heading back to Marvel, Berry told Access Hollywood:

“I am excited. I love Storm. That’s one of my favourite characters that I’ve played. And people love that character as well.”
