AICN was lucky enough to chat with producer Bryan Singer, about X-Men: First Class.
Singer revealed POTENTIAL SPOILERS about the prequel...PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK
The film will be set in the 1960's and will use key history of that time period' from John F. Kennedy as President, to the Martin Luther King, Jr and Malcolm X parallel between Xavier (James McAvoy) and Magneto's (Michael Fassbender)
The mutants costumes will emulate those in the comics much more than the other films, the 60's setting likely allowing the filmmakers to get away with the more garish fashion styles.
Because this is set in the 60's, the younger characters from the previous X-Men films will NOT appear
Scott Summers (Cyclops) may not be there, but his brother Alex Summers aka. Havoc (Lucas Till) will be.
The central story will be the fall of the friendship between Xavier and Magneto. Xavier won't be in a wheelchair at first but we will see how he ends up there.
Kevin Bacon's villain will be Sebastian Shaw and we will see the Hellfire Club in full swing.
The film will have an international feel with several locations represented including the Soviet Union. Singer makes several comparisons to the Sean Connery-era James Bond films in terms of the film's technology and globe-trotting
