X-Men: First Class: Young Professor X Cast and Emma Frost on Set

More First Class News!

We've had tons of X-Men First Class news the past few months, and most of it has been casting rumors. This week, we've seen at least one piece of news that isn't some annoying casting rumor though.
 
Actual First Class news you can see! GossipCenter recently posted this picture up on their website, along with a few other less-than-stellar ones, of January Jones in her Emma Frost outfit. I can already sense that people are a little disappointed that she's not in a skimpy outfit with most of her bare skin showing, but think about it. The film takes place in the 1960s, and this outfit screams 1960s! Whether of not this is the actual outfit she'll wear during the entire film is unknown, but I feel it fits the times perfectly. Check out those go-go boots! What a disturbingly 60s-esque hat! January Jones certainly looks the part and this is probably the first time I've been excited from a piece of news about this upcoming film. 
 
Check out the gallery below for the rest of the photos of January Jones and the casting info on kid Professor X.
 


 Wait... he has hair. I don't agree with this!

Aside from all the January Jones pictures, who's name not only sounds like a Bond Girl, but she now looks like one as well, there's more news on casting developments for a young Charles Xavier. According to BleedingCool, Laurence Belcher (Messengers 2) will be playing young Chuck in the upcoming film. 
 
He'll probably have a little bit of screen time before Jame McAvoy ( Wanted, Atonement) comes in to become Professor X full-time. What do you guys think? Is January Jones looking good? Is this kid too adorable to play Chuck Xavier?

I didn't say it in the article, but I'll say it now... I officially have a thing for January Jones... and it's all because of that 60s go-go dancer get-up

January Jones looks good as Emma, I do wonder if she will be able to pull off the part though..

It certainly looks like 60s and now that you mention it she sounds like a Bond girl like the other one that was called Christmas. But she looks good.

I hope this will be a good movie. But to tell you the truth I do not know what it will be about.

I think the same.

I am not a big fan of the hat.  It is way too big for her tiny little self.  The essence of Emma Frost is not in that costume.
