X-Men: First Class charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men.
And in other news,
X-Men: First Class lost out to
Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 for "Must See Movie of the Summer", but the likes of
Green Lantern and
Captain America: The First Avenger weren't even nominated, so I'm not too worried about that!
X-Men: First Class is set to be released in the UK on June 1st and in the US on June 2nd.
