How Avengers 2's Quicksilver is Different from X-Men's

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has mentioned in previous interviews that he loved Fox’s take on Quicksilver (Evan Peters) in X-Men: Days of Future Past.

IGN’s Roth Cornet recently spoke with Feige in advance of the release of Guardians of the Galaxy and asked if Marvel plans to retcon any of their visual effects for Quicksilver’s speedster abilities in order to make them look different from X-Men’s. “No, we’re not,” he said, “and there may be some things that look like that, because he runs really fast, and time slows down if you want to be in his perspective while he’s running fast.” However, he added, “they may as well be two completely different characters.”
