Breathe easy, X-Men fans: You will get to see Anna Paquin in X-Men: Days of Future Past after all.

In December, director Bryan Singer told Entertainment Weekly that the True Blood star "won't appear" in the superhero sequel after the only action sequence involving her character Rogue had to be cut from the film. Singer explained that in the editing process, he discovered the sequence was "extraneous" to the story. "Unfortunately, it was the one and only sequence Anna Paquin was in, the Rogue character was in," Singer said. "Even though she's in the materials and part of the process of making the film, she won't appear in it."

That sequence may not have survived, but it turns out, Rogue has. After noticing Paquin's name was conspicuously present in the credits following the newest trailer for the film released late Tuesday, a rep for 20th Century Fox has confirmed to BuzzFeed that Paquin is back in the film. "Essentially, [it's] a cameo," the rep said.

With a storyline that jumps from the near future to 1970s America, X-Men: Days of Future Past is the most ambitious movie in the 14-year-old, now seven-film franchise, incorporating actors from the original film trilogy like Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, and Halle Berry, as well as Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, and Jennifer Lawrence from the 2011 prequel X-Men: First Class. With so many characters to service in a feature-length running time, it is understandable that Singer and screenwriter Simon Kinberg (X-Men: The Last Stand) would have difficulty working every single X-Men character into the film. In Paquin's case, apparently, they were ultimately able to conjure the screen time.
