Fox has slid a new image out on its Facebook page for the X-Men movies today that’s also shown up in the Entertainment Weekly summer preview magazine, this time showing off Magneto and Xavier as they hang out from underneath a plane. While it’s not the most dashing of looks for Fassbender, the real fun comes in that with the angle used here, Ceiling Cat can be easily replaced with Xavier watching over you from so many different places. It’s simply the perfect cut from which to work.
Plot summary: X-MEN FIRST CLASS charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to prevent nuclear Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men.
