This one has the distinct whiff of a leak about it, but the first look at the X-Men: First Class cast outside of pap snaps has arrived via The Daily Blam, featuring the gang in all their costumed/ made-up glory. And you know what? They look rather nifty.
From left to right, then: Michael Fassbender as Magneto, Rose Byrne as Moira MacTaggert, January Jones as Emma Frost, Jason Flemyng as Azazel, (AKA Nightcrawler’s dad, a nasty sort), Nicholas Hoult as Beast, Lucas Till as Havok, Zoe Kravitz as Angel, Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique and last, but certainly not least, James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier. With plenty of hair! And standing up!
Fassbender in particular gives off a healthy McKellen vibe as Erik Lensherr, the man who will be Magneto, and McAvoy looks suitably studious (with just a hint of the steely attitude beneath) as Prof X.
Mad Men’s January Jones, meanwhile, certainly wasn’t kidding about the flimsiness of her costume (nicely in keeping with the Emma Frost tradition in the comics). Jennifer Lawrence also looks spot on as the younger Mystique.
As for the uniforms, it’s tough to tell from this pic, but with the movie set in the ‘60s, they’re going for a blend of Bryan Singer’s film with a take on the colourful and classic Jack Kirby costumes.
We’re not sure how long this one will be up, but take a gander for yourself and let us know your thoughts. The film, directed by Matthew Vaughn, will be out on June 2.
