Last week we managed to tap into our dormant mutant powers and attend the press conference for X-Men: First Class to hear firsthand experiences of the production from key members of the cast and co-scribe Jane Goldman. Our review of the film is here and you can check it out right now as it is released in UK cinemas today.
Everyone appeared to be in a fun and playful mood (probably bolstered considerably by the more than favourable feedback the film is currently receiving) and amongst more general chitchat, the cast was happy to discuss the more outlandish aspects of bringing comic book characters to life on the big screen.

June 1st can't come soon enough. While I wasn't a mega-fan (unlike the rest of the world) of Mathew Vaughn's Kick-Ass, it's with baited breath I wait for his entry into the X-Men universe, X-Men: First Class. With a superb cast (Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Rose Byrne, Jason Flemyng, January Jones and Oliver Platt) and a seemingly wonderful script from Jane Goldsmith; X-Men has never looked so...x-citing*. *...Sorry.
