James McAvoy Talks X-Men: First Class
Thu, September 23, 2010 X-Men: First Class is a couple of weeks into filming, and it shouldn't be too long before we get some official pictures from the production. Something we can certainly not expect is seeing a bald James McAvoy as the young Chuck Xavier.
Speaking to Music Television, the actor explains his approach to filling in the shoes of Patrick Stewart without doing a full on impression:
Interesting he points out a "next movie" (and quickly reneges). Wouldn't put it past Fox and I'm hopeful this Matthew Vaughn-directed/Bryan Singer-produced collaboration will work. Considering how this was fast-tracked like it was (it was announced this past June with a June 2011 release date written in stone), there's legit concern this will be a messy rush job not unlike X-Men: The Last Stand.
