X-Men: Days of Future Past Director Tweets First Photo of Storm

X-Men: Days of Future Past, the seventh installment in the X-Men film franchise, doesn't arrive in theaters until 2014. But fans are already getting an early glimpse of the movie on social media, particularly from director Bryan Singer on Twitter.

Singer gave his followers a treat Monday, tweeting "Storm watch" along with the first public image of actress Halle Berry as the weather-manipulating Marvel character Storm during filming for X-Men: Days of Future Past. Berry also played Storm in the first three X-Men films.

The 46-year-old Academy Award-winning actress, who is pregnant with her second child, recently revealed that the pregnancy will influence her role as Storm because she "won't be able to do any fighting or flying or things like that." She assured fans, though, that Storm will remain a pivotal character in X-Men: Days of Future Past. The 20th Century Fox film is scheduled to hit theaters on July 18, 2014.

In March, the studio released a six-second Vine teaser of The Wolverine, the forthcoming sixth chapter in the X-Men film franchise, before unveiling the movie's first full trailer.

Berry is among the actors reportedly reprising roles from previous X-Men flicks, including Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh Jackman, Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore, James McAvoy, Nicholas Hoult and Daniel Cudmore. New cast members are Peter Dinklage, Fan Bingbing, Booboo Stewart and Omar Sy.

After releasing a six-second teaser of The Wolverine on Vine and a 20-second teaser on MTV, 20th Century Fox and Marvel unleashed the movie's first full trailer on Wednesday.

Hugh Jackman plays the disgruntled hero for the sixth time in this second solo outing following X-Men Origins: Wolverine from 2009. His other four appearances were in the X-Men franchise films.

This time his distress over his immortality reaches a fever pitch as a man he previously saved offers him a way to take away his regenerative abilities and become mortal again.

The Wolverine, out July 26, also features Silver Samurai (Will Yun Lee) and Viper (Svetlana Khodchenkova). And like in Monday's Vine, the trailer shows a glimpse of Famke Janssen's departed Jean Grey character, who may reappear more than once in flashbacks.

The studio behind the movie, 20th Century Fox, also released this week two movie posters for the film, including this one:
