![]() ![]() Which is fair enough, because why wouldn’t you use Jennifer Lawrence if you could? The last two First Class movies were quite heavily centred around Mystique’s relationships with Charles and Magneto, so if this is her last appearance (and we’d expect it to be) then you’d hope for some kind of closure on that plot thread, at least. Perhaps occupying Halle Berry’s role as ‘X-Men actress most annoyed she signed a three-picture deal shortly before becoming super-famous’, Jennifer Lawrence is back as Mystique. In the comics, everyone from Wolverine to Gambit to the Incredible Hulk has been a horseman of Apocalypse at some point or another, so it’s fair to say the criteria isn’t THAT strict. Becoming a horseman tends to involve some level of brainwashing and power upgrade, so it’ll be interesting to see how they approach it in the movies. His team in this movie is Magneto, Angel, Storm and Psylocke (who’s not in this trailer). In the film, as in the comics, Apocalypse tends to surround himself with lieutenants he calls the Four Horsemen. She was also previously played by Heather McComb in the mostly forgotten Generation X TV movie, but the less we say about that the better. Jubilee previously had the occasional cameo in the movies, but she’s been upgraded to a major player. ![]() Jubileeįans of the 90s X-Men cartoon (and comics) will no doubt recognise the yellow-coated, sunglassed mutant girl Jubilee. ![]() They’ve adapted the spirit, if not the letter of the franchise. In a way, you have to applaud the movies’ decision to make following the story as confusing and difficult as the comics. Anyone wondering how and why characters like Nightcrawler and Angel can turn up in the ‘past’ when the X-Men were previously unaware of them should remind themselves that the events of Days Of Future Past essentially created a splinter timeline, so all continuity bets are off. We'll have the X-Men: First Class trailer, along with our detailed thoughts, here on Screen Rant as soon as soon as it becomes available to put up so check back frequently for more X-Men movie news! We're excited about the unveiling of director Matthew Vaughn and producer Bryan Singer's work on the film thus far and hope the trailer changes some of the negative early buzz and justifies our placement of the film in our top 20 most anticipated movies of 2011.Also returning to the franchise after last being seen in X2: X-Men United, Kurt Wagner (aka Nightcrawler). The X-Men franchise prequel, set in the 1960s, stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Rose Byrne, January Jones, Oliver Platt, Kevin Bacon, Lucas Till, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Jason Flemyng, Zoë Kravitz, Edi Gathegi, Ray Wise and Caleb Landry Jones. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to prevent nuclear Armageddon. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time.
