X-Class Reunion Everybody Is Back

The sequel to last Summer's X-Men: First Class is officially a go according to Deadline.


The entire cast is set to reprise their roles, including James McAvoy (Professor X), Michael Fassbender (Magneto), and Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), Rose Byrne (Moira MacTaggert), January Jones (Emma Frost) and Nicholas Hoult (Beast).

Matthew Vaughn will call action again and Bryan Singer is returning as producer.

Simon Kinberg (Sherlock Holmes) is on board to pen the screenplay. All we know about the story is New Mutants will be part of the fun

X-Men: FC was the least earning pic in the X-Men film series--it did pull in $353 million worldwide and  Fox hopes the current attention surrounding Fassbender and Lawrence as actors will propel this next installment to higher revenue.

No set start date has been announced yet.
