Is Days of Future Past canon?
Yes. Simon Kinberg has also confirmed that: “The idea is that we’ve sort of reset the timeline after Days of Future Past in some ways, and if not erased, certainly allowed for change from [the original X-Men movie], 2, 3, everything from Days of Future Past forward. Everything we set now becomes canon.”
