X-MEN: FIRST CLASS (Casting, Rumors, Pics till release)

[Captain Craig]

I think it'll excite everyone, right?
Even if someone has been hating on the film it'll give 'em new material to dislike.

 

[Admiral_Young]

^ It will indeed...I'm just poking fun at KG24.

 

[JacksonArcher]

It's here!

I think the cast looks awesome, the costumes look great. Poster time and then trailer time next!! Hopefully.

 

[Saul]

Ummm........ least impressive superhero pic of the week.

 

[Captaindemotion]

I like the retro costumes and the cast look pretty good in them. And how hot is January Jones?!

 

[Admiral_Young]

^ Emma looks the best out of them all. I do like McAvoy's Xavier in that jump suit. I am surprised with how much I really love this photo.

 

[JacksonArcher]

I like the retro costumes.

 

[Whofan]

Mystique looks nearly identical, although she has the comic version's hairstyle.

 

[Captain Craig]

I wish Beast wasn't so shadowed. I admit when this movie was announced I had hopes for a non-Blue/Furry beast.

January Jones does indeed look smoking hot!! She should be front and center!

 

[Samurai8472]

Ummm........ least impressive superhero pic of the week.

I agree. In small doses it doesn't look THAT cheesy(Spider-Man,Captain America"

But when you have a group of spandex superheroes posing it looks lame.

 

[KB24]

I'm really liking the retro, but I'd like a little more- particularity a confirmation that this is even effing real!

I agree its a good tease, but wow, how about a full length shot of everybody?

 

[Admiral_Young]

Why wouldn't it be real? They would have taken it down or clarified if it was fan made or fake. I suspect a villain cast photo could come next.

 

[Obiwanshinobi]

Well it certainly does look like something out of the 60's. Was Mystique ever a former X-Men?

 

[Admiral_Young]

Mystique has worked in black ops projects with Professor Xavier before...I think there was a mini-series involving the two of them. She has been a member of the X-Men on a probationary status after infiltrating them as a mutant named Foxx. I don't remember which issues these were...but they possibility could be post AOA and pre Mutant M.

 

[JacksonArcher]

Apparently that photo was a leak, and an official (official) photo will be online soon.

 

[captcalhoun]

someone mind telling me who's who other than Mystique and Emma Frost?

 

[Admiral_Young]

So it would seem KG24 has a point about wondering if this was a fake or not. This just furthers my pet peeve of studios releasing photos through internet entertainment news outlets like this instead of official studio websites or more reputed sites. It just creates confusion. Also there is this now...

From Left tor Right,

Magneto, Moira McTaggart, Emma Frost, Azazel, Beast, Havok, Angel (Not Warren Worthington III) Mystique and Xavier.

 

[Admiral_Young]

^Yep. Angel is Angel Salvatore created by Grant Morrison during his second New X-Men arc I believe. She was first encountered by Logan in a bar who saves her from a lynching when her wings first sprout. I think Grant created her to have a mentor relationship with Logan that was more antagonistic than his previous ones with Kitty and Jublilee.
