I’ve worked out who X-Men First Class’ villain is

July 28, 2010 by

Oh yes I have.

It’s been revealed that Edi Gathegi has been cast as Darwin in the upcoming X-Men First Class movie.

Darwin, of course, was a member of the ‘lost’ team of X-Men revealed to have been put together by Xavier to rescue his original team in the continuity-busting X-Men: Deadly Genesis.

The villain of that piece?

Vulcan, Cyclops and Havok’s mysterious third brother, Vulcan. Kevin Bacon has been cast as an unnamed villain.

So…

Wait, that’s not what I meant to say.

What I meant to say was that the ‘lost’ X-Men team actually was assembled to fight Krakoa, the Living Island.

So my real pick is this:

Because who doesn’t want to see Kevin Bacon as a giant living plant island?

    Will the next movie be a reboot of the franchise, or is it in current X-move continuity?

      I’d think it was in the existing continuity, if only because they also have Wolverine and Deadpool films in that continuity in development.

      With Fox, though, who knows?
