Trivia

  • Actor Josh Helman was originally cast in X-Men: Days of Future Past to portray Juggernaut as a young man. Helman was recast as Major Stryker when Juggernaut was written out of the script and replaced with Quicksilver, as Fox was having trouble finding the right actor for that role.[3][4][5]
