On Just How Revealing Her Emma Frost Costume Is:
"I’m naked. [Laughs.] In the comics, the costume is pretty much just painted on and she has a pretty unrealistic body. So it was a challenge for me. I literally went from ‘Mad Men,’ packed the next day and flew to [the set in] London — so there wasn’t any time for me to do a lot of toning up or getting fit. I just had to wing it. But we had a lot of fun with the costumes in that we wanted to make them very revealing and sexy, and they’re always white and pearlized."
On Translating The Iconic Look To A 1960s Setting:
"We got that Emma Frost look, but with a ’60s twist — and a lot of sparkles, because she turns into a diamond. We did all the research from the comic books and took bits and pieces of her costumes from different time periods and meshed it all together. We did a lot of leather."
On Her Involvement In Coming Up With The Costume:
"Definitely. I have to feel good in it. I’m the one who’s got to wear it 18 hours a day. It was a lot of boots, a lot of hair, a lot of boobs. You can’t please everyone, but the goal is to not disappoint everyone."
X-Men: First Class is set to be released on June 3, later this year!
