UPDATE: Matthew Vaughn says the picture is a fake.
From ToplessRobot via GammaSquad comes the first cast photo of all the X-Men from the prequel, X-Men: First Class, being directed by Matthew Vaughn (Kick-Ass). The obvious title would’ve been X-Men Kids, but oh no, God forbid anyone listen to me.
From left, that’s Michael Fassbender as Magneto, Rose Byrne as Dr. Moira McTaggert, January Jones as Emma Frost, Jason Flemyng as Azazel, Nicholas Hoult as Beast, Lucas Till as Havok, Zoe Kravitz (yes, Lenny’s daughter — how many black people named “Kravitz” do you know?) as Angel Salvadore, Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique, and James McAvoy as Professor Xavier.
Since they covered up all the ladies and cropped the dudes above the crotch (tisk, tisk, I thought this was a superhero movie), not to mention covering my poor angel (and dynamite actress) Jennifer Lawrence with blue paint, January Jones is the clear standout:
Jones plays Emma Frost, whose superpower, according to my research, is looking like a Playmate from the 70s. (Her mutation? Great boobs.) Now, a lot has been made of January Jones’ tendency to look plain on certain occasions, when clearly, other times, like this one, she looks fantastic. My working theory is that she tends to look great when she wears something that exposes the crack in her boobs. But of course, there’s still a lot of work to be done.
