James McAvoy set to return in X-Men: First Class sequel

While Michael Fassbender’s portrayol of a young Erik Lenshrr/Magneto was what stole the show of Matthew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class, James McAvoy was able to bring a terrific performance as Charles Xavier/Professor X. In an interview with Total Film, McAvoy stated that he would be returning for a sequel, if it ever happens. ““I’d be up for it. But the truth is I’m contractually obliged to be up for it because they made us all sign multiple picture deals,” he said.

McAvoy couldn’t give any details on what’s planned for the sequel, but he does mention that things will be going back to the previous X-men films. “This was a completely different thing. Magneto wasn’t a bad guy, we were friends. We’re now set up to go back to the way the other movies are, so we’ve got to try to be cleverer than that,” he said.
