Watch X-Men: First Class Streaming - Story Notes & Kevin Bacon's Character!

Bryan Singer has dropped some knowledge on everyone and revealed some points about X-Men: First Class and what we can expect to see in the movie.

Some of the points aren't exactly ground breaking as we had to assume some things when we started hearing about casting and characters.

Other points though are pretty cool.

The first thing mentioned is that the movie will be set in the 1960's and center on the early relationship between Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr. This isn't huge news. When we heard that James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender would be playing the characters we knew that it meant the story would be told from an earlier point.

The next point is that Xavier won't start the movie in the wheel chair, or bald. This is pretty cool, especially since Singer says that we will see the cause of Xavier's paralysis. And it means that by the end of the movie we should be seeing a bald McAvoy.

A quick point is that there will be no Cyclops of Jean Grey in the movie. That's a little sad, but there are so many other characters that will be in the movie that it shouldn't feel like a big loss in the end.

Probably my favorite point is this one, the Hellfire Club will be represented and we will see Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw and, the recently announced, January Jones as The White Queen, Emma Frost. We knew that Jones was cast to play Frost, but this is the first word on the actual character that Bacon will play in the film.

I know it's a lot to take in all at once. But this is big stuff friends. X-Men: First Class is aiming to reboot a franchise that had a great start and I believe has a strong chance to reclaim that quality and love from the fans.

Watch X-Men: First Class Streaming - Casting Note!

Just 2 days ago we talked about the newest casting decisions that have been made for X-Men: First Class.

And now today it seems that there has been a change in direction in a role that we thought was handed out a long time ago.

In late June it was strong rumor that Alice Eve would be getting the part of Emma Frost in the movie. And the more time that passed without anything being said about it, the more I figured that it was probably a rumor based in fact.

However, the news is now that January Jones will be playing Emma Frost in the upcoming X-Men flick instead.

Now, I'm a big fan of Alice Eve, so I'm a little disappointed. But the film makers have done a good job of picking their White Queen. There is no doubt about that.

Ms. Jones is famous for her role on Mad Men and is a very beautiful woman. With her skills and looks I'm sure that this is going to be a decision that everyone is happy with in the end.

Also, it's been reported that Oliver Platt has joined the cast of X-Men: First Class as well and will be playing the role of The Man in Black. There has been no character description given for Platt's role other than he will not be a villain or a mutant. The general feeling is that he will be a government agent of some sort.

And, I'm still waiting to find out what the official word is on the villain part that Kevin Bacon will be playing!
