Watch Jennifer Lawrence and Peter Dinklage in an Ass-Kicking New Clip from 'X-Men: Days of Future Past'
by Andy NeuenschwanderThis brand-new clip from "X-Men: Days of Future Past" teaches an important lesson: Don't mess with Jennifer Lawrence.
More specifically, don't mess with Mystique, the shape-shifting mutant that Lawrence plays in the movie. In the clip, Boliver Trask (played by "Game of Thrones" star Peter Dinklage) is presenting his new weapon in a room full of important-looking military personnel. He reassures them that the weapon won't even activate, unless there's a mutant in the room...which it turns out there is.
Some scanning leads him to Mystique, who reveals herself and kicks ass all over the room, eventually cornering Trask.
The movie, which releases later this month, will feature an incredible cast thanks to the time-traveling nature of the plot. The story will revolve around Wolverine (played by Hugh Jackman), who is sent back in time in order to prevent a major catastrophe from happening. As a result, we'll see both the present-day versions of the mutants played by the likes of Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Halle Berry and others, as well as the past versions played by Lawrence, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, and Nicholas Hoult.
The movie's release has been shrouded in controversy after director Bryan Singer was accused of drugging and sexually absuing an underage boy a number of years ago. That case, which is ongoing, has come to include a number of other Hollywood figures.
