X-Men: First Class – Trailer

x-men-first-class-movie-posterThe first trailer has been released for the prequel story X-Men: First Class that’s quite cool and gives a nod to Bryan Singer‘s initial film, with the original actors Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart featured briefly via clips.

The younger counterparts look comfortable playing these classic characters with the villainous beginnings of Magneto portrayed by Michael Fassbender, and James McAvoy as the compassionate Charles Xavier. The film’s time-line is set in the early 1960’s with the mutants in the middle of the Cuban missile crisis. President John F. Kennedy also features making his address to the nation via telecast for greater effect.

For those who like their superhero – bad guy – mutant stories, then this one should deliver with a strong cast and impressive visuals to make it a flick worth catching.

From ‘Kick-Ass’ director Matthew Vaughn the story is by X-Men director himself Bryan Singer,  so this revisionist piece might just deliver.

The film also stars Kevin Bacon, January Jones, Rose Byrne, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, and Oliver Platt.

X-Men: First Class opens June 3rd.
