James McAvoy Jokingly Shares His Thoughts On X-Men: First Class Posters!

Remember those slightly odd silhouette posters Fox released featuring Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy a couple of months back? Well, check out what the latter had to say about the rather odd design...

There was a lot of harsh criticism aimed at Fox after the early release of a clearly photoshopped image of the actors from X-Men: First Class was leaked online, and even more so when they released two rather bizarre looking posters. So, what does the brand new Charles Xavier make of this? Check out his hilarious response below courtesy of MTV Splash Page!



"I have no idea," McAvoy told MTV News when asked what exactly is going on in the somewhat strange posters.

"I really had to sit on Patrick Stewart's lap [for that image]. The only thing they photoshopped was to make him all dark."




X-Men: First Class is set to be released on June 3, later this year!

The trailer looks cool but whoever's in charge of thearketing posters really has no sense of creativity. These are some pretty cool characters but aren't shown off properly. These could've been sweet X posters.

He made fun of a POSTER, not the movie. Geez, people so eager to jump on the bandwagon.
