The Fass Talks X-Men: First Class Sequel

The prospect of seeing Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy reunite for a second X-Men movie literally has us salivating. So we're extremely excited to hear that The Fass is equally excited about revisiting the on-screen bromance.

In an interview with IFC, the actor discussed how their characters, Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr, might move forward, now that they're on opposite sides of the mutant cause.

"You know what’s interesting about Magneto and Professor X from the comic books as well, is there’s such a complexity to their relationship," Fassbender said. 

"It’s not just like clear-cut enemies; they’re best friends as well. In the comic books, even after they’ve had this sort of rift, Professor X asks Magneto to come back and look after the students at certain points.

"I think there’s always that complexity in their relationship. And we want to keep that alive as possible, because that’s I think a really interesting thing — the conflict there.

"Hopefully we’ll get to do another one; that’s what we want to carry that vein through for sure," he added. "Personally, I do and I know James feels the same."

This is all very exciting. We need to go have a little lie down…
