Fans will have to wait a little longer for the extended version of “X-Men: Days of Future Past.”

James Finn, executive vice president of marketing communications for FOX, confirmed on his official Twitter account the extended cut will be released in 2015. However, the theatrical DVD and Blue Ray for “Days of Future Past” will hit store shelves on Oct. 14.

“X-Men” writer Simon Kinberg confirmed to The Daily Beast in May a deleted scene featuring Rogue, Magneto and Professor X would be featured on the DVD release. Kinberg also explained why Rogue’s scene needed to get cut out of the film’s theater release.

"The Rogue/Anna Paquin scene was by far the biggest cut we made, and that was more my fault than anything," Kinberg said. "When I was crafting the script, I wanted to create a subplot for old Charles and old Eric - Patrick [Stewart] and Ian [McKellen] - to have a mini-mission together, one final adventure. And that's what the Rogue sequence was - that they went to retrieve Rogue.”

"It felt like it didn't come from the spine of the film, it was an appendage where I just wanted to see the old guys get in the X-Jet for one last ride," Kinberg added. "It was a narrative detour, and in a film with this much momentum and narrative flow, you can't afford any detours."

As for the upcoming “X-Men: Apocalypse,” Kinberg recently spoke to the Latino Review about the Four Horsemen featured at the end of “Days of Future Past.” Kinberg couldn’t confirm any details regarding the plot, but did reveal the Four Horsemen were carefully chosen using source material.

“I will let you know that our choosing of the Horseman was something that we, Bryan and myself took very, very seriously and did only after an exhaustive review of all the different Horseman, both in the comics and the cartoons who have at one point or another fallen under Apocalypse,” Kinberg said.
