Over at Slashfilms, there are good comments and feedback on the focus of the X-Men franchise and direction concerning all seeming efforts going into X-men: First class.
X-Men Origins: Magneto talk stopped about the same time that X-Men: First Class was announced.
Producer Lauren Shuler Donner in an interview with Crave online, states -
No. You know, there’s internal discussions but probably not. It kind of got incorporated into this one, a lot of it.”
So, a basic no Magneto film, but he will appear in First class.
The proposed plot was as below -
The original X-Men film began with a prologue that showed the character as a child being led to a concentration camp by Nazis and that is the period in which the Magneto film will take place. This setup will allow a future villain to at least flirt with the designation of protagonist since the character will be seen almost exclusively in his formative years. The storyline will heavily involve Professor X, the wheelchair-using X-Men leader. That character was a soldier in the allied force that liberated the concentration camps. The professor meets Magneto after the war and while they bond over the realization that they are alike in their special powers, their differences soon turn them into enemies.
The other bit of news from the interview, is not the revelation of the storyline, but the close focus on the comic storyline!
“Well, we have another Wolverine that we’re going to do, The Wolverine Saga, with Mariko, The Japanese Story, that miniseries. But that we pretty much follow the comic pretty closely, as closely, really closely.”
Good eh!
