They filmed an amorous scene together.
But much like Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult’s real life relationship; it didn’t quite make the cut.
In an unreleased clip posted by Buzzfeed on Monday, the two stars could be seen enjoying a make-out session that did not make it onto the theatrical version of X-Men: Days Of Future past.

Jennifer brings in Nicholas for a kiss as they enjoy a romantic rendezvous by the fire while adding in some talk about each other’s perception of beauty.
The 24-year-old actress who plays Mystique/Raven begins the clip by saying in a sultry voice: ‘Well maybe we shouldn’t have to fight off the things that come so naturally to us.’
She then goes in for a passionate kiss on 25-year-old Nicholas, who portrays Beast/Hank McCoy, leading him to the floor.

Hank goes in for a grab of Raven’s derriere when they both begin to transform into their blue mutant forms.
After the full transformation, Beast growls as he turns the tables on Mystique and gets on top of her before they pause for a moment and look at each other.
Mystique then says: ‘Do you remember one of the last things you said to me? That I would never be deemed beautiful looking like this.’
Beast has a look of regret on his face before Mystique queries: ‘Do you still think that?’

He replies: ‘You saw what happened in Paris. You know what they think of us.’
She then asks: ‘What do you think?’ to which Beast replies: ‘I think you’re beautiful.’
The two actors met while co-starring in 2011’s X-Men: First Class and briefly split in summer 2013 before reuniting both off and on-screen in X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Their relationship almost lasted for three years, but the couple seem to still have a good professional relationship as they joined director Bryan Singer for a snap posted on his Instagram page while shooting scenes from the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse film last month.

Nicholas explained to MTV last October why the love scenes were cut from the film as he said: ‘There were another couple of scenes which got cut, because they didn’t work technically in terms of the geography of how the movie played out in the end.
‘Why [Mystique and Beast] would be here — when the world is about to end — and then we’ve nipped home quickly to have a good night’s sleep. Everyone was like, “well, we can’t really do that.” So there were a couple of extra scenes which got cut, unfortunately.’
The scene is part of an additional 17 minutes of previously-cut footage that will be released as the ‘Rogue Cut’ of X-Men: Days Of Future Past, according to ComingSoon.net. It is set for release July 14 on Blu-Ray, DVD and Digital HD.
