A few weeks ago, Michael Fassbender was thinking about joining the cast of the X-Men: First Class movie as Magneto or playing a negative role in another Marvel franchise, Spider Man.
Today we learn that Fassbender has signed on to play Magneto, this means he will work under the guidance of Matthew Vaughn.
Michael Fassbender, known especially from Hunger ( movie directed by Stee McQueen ) but also from Inglorious Basterds and 300, will team up with James McAvoy who will play the role of Professor X. In the movie will also appear Benjamin Walker as Beast, Rosamund Pike as Emma Frost and Amber Heard as Mystique.
X-Men: First class will be released in movie theaters at the beginning of June of next year and will tell the story of the beginnings of the X Men Adventures, before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr became PRofessor X and Magneto. It is presented the period in which they start to discover their powers.
