X-Men First Class Might be Adding Some Bacon

Written by Nix July 9, 2010 Posted In » Comic Book Movie News, X-Men: First Class (2011) Movie

Another day, another “X-Men: First Class” casting news. The latest has Kevin Bacon, he of a gazillion movies that you can connect to anyone in the whole wide world, is in negotiations to play the lead villain in Matthew Vaughn’s “X-Men” movie.

Since the negotiations are still ongoing, there are no word on what character he’ll be playing, and honestly, I haven’t a clue what kind of character Bacon would be perfect to play from the world of X-Men. With the film following a young Magneto and Professor X (Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy, respectively), it’s anybody’s guess who will end up being the movie’s villain.

Any guesses?

    I always thought Dulph Lundgren would make a good Cable.

    Gonna say Sinister, though I'd love to see the ShadowKing, played by John Rhys Davies.

    Even though I agree that Sinister is a good choice, shadowking would be more keeping with the comic.

    Hmm… should be one of the “older” villains: A homo sapien or homo superior? I'd like to see him as Sinister, not sure if he commands that much authority to play the character though.
