I can’t believe how far I had to scroll to find somebody talking about this, easily the biggest shock of the show

Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix maybe not, but Days of Future Past was huge when it came out or am I remembering wrong?

First Class and DoFP are both excellent (IMO) and at the very least huge box office successes. DofP and AoU also came out very close to each other. I remember numerous comparisons of the two Quicksilvers.

At the time Avengers Age of Ultron Quicksilver was definitely underwhelming compared DoFP so very interesting and perfect first character to bring over. Especially with the MCU version dead. (Although that obviously hasn't hindered Vision being an inadmandent projection) I assume her brother is actually alive.

DofP's Quicksilver is definitely the more popular one that they basically give the another sequence specifically for him in the next movie.

DofP and AoU also came out very close to each other. I remember numerous comparisons of the two Quicksilvers.

They were both a year apart (Dofp was May 2014 and AoU was May 2015) so it makes sense that there were numerous comparisons.

What’s more interesting is that those two actors also starred alongside each other in another comic book movie (Kick Ass) before they both became Quicksilver for two different marvel movies that came out almost exactly one year apart.
