Notes:
-Announcement:

Spoiler: show

Director Matthew Vaughn is officially back to direct the sequel to X-Men: First Class. He previously mentioned that he would like to see the sequel take place in the latter part of the 1960's "where you’ve got The Stones, The Beatles, Flower Power…” Today we have a bit more info on the sequel and the character it will focus on... Magneto.

It's not really all that surprising--after all, he was basically the main character and focus of the first film. Screenwriter Simon Kinberg recently did an interview with MTV and talked about exploring Magneto's origin even further.

That's what was so cool about the first one and what we want to continue. Magneto becomes the villain ultimately of the franchise but he's a much more complicated character as a young man. He's someone you sympathize with, you care about you root for even though might not necessarily agree with his methods, you understand his philosophy.

As for whether or not Magneto will be a full-on villain in the sequel or still trying to find his place in the world Kinberg says,

We’re still figuring that out. I think the truth is ultimately that because Michael [Fassbender] is such an interesting actor, he’ll never be full-on anything. He’ll have a villainous side and he’ll have a sympathetic human side you’ll be able to relate but you’ll also be afraid of him. He becomes Magneto, he says 'Call me Magneto' at the end of the first movie.

Kinberg mentions that he doesn't know what the title of the film will be yet, but goes on to talk about how big of a fan he is of the franchise.

I’m a huge X-Men fan. I grew up loving the comic books and it was really exciting to be able to do the origin story of Xavier and Magneto, and getting those two actors, [James] McAvoy and [Michael] Fassbender, were really amazing. So being able to explore those characters with actors of that quality will be exciting a second time around, and doing some things unexpected with those characters, which is the plan.

to quote Bart Scott "Can't wait"

[6souls]

In a effort to avoid any kind of shooting conflict with The Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence Fox has decided to move the production of the sequel to X-Men: First Class to January. This allows for Lionsgate to shoot The Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire without any kind of conflict. Lawrence will basically shoot the films back to back, so she's going to be one busy actress. At least the studios wont have to fight over her now. It must be nice to be wanted.

According to THR, "Fox was informing talent agencies Thursday that the studio plans to begin shooting its in-development sequel to X-Men: First Class in January. That means Lionsgate could move forward with an August-September start date for the Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire..."

Matthew Vaughn will be back to direct the sequel for X-Men: First Class, but as we reported earlier Gary Ross will not be back to direct Catching Fire.

Uh, main bad dude died too.

[Zilong]

pretty sure he was implying "the only black guy died", not "only the black guy died" with that sentence

[Myrrh_Quetz]

Seeing as "The only black guy died" was in the post. I can't see how there is any confusion.

And on July 18, 2014, Fox releases worldwide the third of its summer tentpoles, the currently untitled X-MEN, to be directed by Matthew Vaughn.

[Odin'sLaw]

so instead of X-Men first class 2 wouldn't X-Men Second Class be more appropriate?

[Jefe]

How about: X-Men First Class: Part Two?

[Odin'sLaw]

How about: X-Men First Class: Part Two?

i look at it more like a school schedule First class as in the first lesson of the day and not First class as in "we are the best" since you can't be the best when your technically the only....

I always hated the naming convention of adding 1 to an unrelated number in the title, like ocean's 12, 102 dalmatians, etc

[Delirium]

X-Men: Rise of Magneto. Cause Fassbender should be the entire movie :D

[Odin'sLaw]

X-Men: Rise of Magneto. Cause Fassbender should be the entire movie :D

^ works for me, and there only like 6 years late on the real Magneto: Origins (yes i know it was cancelled)

I thought it worked well with Oceans 12 in that they added a 12th person to the scam with Julia Roberts' character. Holds up with 13 too in that Roman and Benedict were also crucial in helping with the scam.

[Souj]

How about they do an Alien and call the sequel "X-Mens"

[BadKarma]

Bad joke
