It’s a tiny bit more than 50 years since President John F. Kennedy’s assassination by Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas, Texas. Ever since then conspiracy theories have swirled over whether there was a second shooter on a grassy knoll.
Anyone who’s seen JFK will also remember the so-called ‘magic bullet’ which the official reports says ricocheted to cause several injuries, but which some think couldn’t possible have moved that way on it own. Now it seems X-Men: Days of Future Past wants to agree with that, suggesting Magneto may have been involved.
20th Century Fox has launched a new viral website called TheBentBullet.com, which ties the sequel to the assassination by suggesting that Erik Lensherr, aka Magneto (Michael Fassbender), was the man on that “grassy knoll,” and manipulated the metal the bullet with his powers.
Take a look below for a video exploring the idea.
