Tim Pocock Interested In X-MEN: FIRST CLASS

16 September 2009 40 Comments

Update: Tim Pocock is not confirmed for X-MEN: FIRST CLASS. Says Pocock:

[I was the] victim of [a] cruel prank. [The] last tweet = NOT me. AM filming Aussie show till 2010. No official word on XM:FC, but am interested. Please post retraction.

Wolverine actor Tim Pocock (Scott Summers/Cyclops) posted a twitter regarding X-MEN: FIRST CLASS:

“Currently shooting Australian TV series till February 2010…then X-men first class *wink*”

The spin-off film is being developed by Lauren Shuler Donner, Simon Kinberg, and Josh Schwartz for 20th Century Fox. It’s planned to depict the early days at Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters, and show the journey of young mutants as they learn valuable lessons while fighting for a world that fears them.

Shuler Donner tells IESB that an X-Men film will likely go into production next year…although she didn’t say which one.

Would you like to see Tim Pocock return for X-MEN: FIRST CLASS?

    I liked him in the role. Hope to see him return :)

  • Sladewol said:

    i hope he’s less wimpy in FC, sorry he was better in the last sceen but he was a wimp at the school vicer found him at

  • chris said:

    i would love to see him blast a sentinel as it chases a group of mutants,and i would love to see sinister trying to experiment on cyclops,i also hope xavier has a special class filled with beak!!!,chamber!!,husk!,glob herman,angel salvador,mammomax,prosimian,and orb weaver those things would be awesome same apocalypse for the magneto film.a gambit origins and a district-x would be nice and a wolverine 2,after those remake the films.

  • chris said:

    or do x-4 and 5 and keep the franchise going. a first class trilogy could be good to.

  • Nathan Pryce said:

    Can’t tell if he is a good Cyke from XMOW, he was hardly in it

    I hope they do decide to do 1st class or some type of Xmen movie.

  • XmenFanX(The Biggest X-men Fan)And I Mean The Biggest Fan:) said:

    YES!!!!!!!!:)

  • X-KiD said:

    What I like most about franchise films is continuity, I’d like to see Pocock return as young Cyclops and of course young Emma as well, since this film is inevitable all I got left to do is support it, I’m a huge X-MEN fan and I love the movie franchise.

    I have a feeling we’ll be seeing Wolverine in the FIRST CLASS film for some reason, they kind of connected that with the origins movie so maybe there’s gonna be a cross between FIRST CLASS and WOLVERINE 2, I hope we see Gambit again.

  • hughjackmanrocks said:

    COOL!

  • Bobby Farmer said:

    i don’t mind to see him in x-men:first class.

  • Sladewol said:

    i don’t want to see sinister in First Class, (sorry) or would he have a major/mior role in it

  • LucaS! said:

    Yay!

  • ken said:

    sure.. its just first class.. i still waiting for the x-men 4 with james marsden as cyclops comeback…

  • Hughman Bein said:

    best shot for Fox- make this a big movie, but also make it a one-shot. Get a story line that will feed Xmen 4 some plot points and then go ahead with the return of the big boys.

  • Joe said:

    It would be nice if we had some offical news on this, and not from some vague twitter announcement, and I don’t think young actors are allowed to do this under contract anyway,

  • Bobby Farmer said:

    i hope first class be an good movie!!!!

  • Daniel Lioe said:

    If they ever do a First class I’d rather it was a story where they show Emma Frost again and the rupture between students, forming then next The Hellfire Club with Emma Frost as it’s White Queen.

    If not a story between Cyclops & Jin Grey with the nefarious Dr.Sinister should be alright as well but I’d prefer that to be on a sequel of First Class.

    Other than that the character that I would really love to see again, as well as more detailed in skills, in an X-Men movie is Gambit because I don’t feel like we’ve seen enough of him. And we all know he is one of the coolest characters with his french womanizing personality ^^.

    Another character to see again would be Nightcrawler (and his lovable personality) but we’ve seen enough teleport with John Wraith & Weapon XI.

  • chris said:

    they will make a trilogy out of this.and hopefully sinister is in the sequel,but i really hope the first is stryker being very upset and starting the sentinel program,and as everyone knows who know me i hope beak,chamber,and husk make it into a x-film.

  • chris said:

    i also hope one day they do x-4,and x5.

  • GreenieGobbie said:

    Eh, he was OK as Cyclops. But who knows, he might do a really good performance. And if that happens, I am excited to see this movie. :D

  • Chad said:

    I would also love to see haley ramm reprise her role as a young jean grey. for consistency.

  • LucaS! said:

    He’s just recently posted another tweet saying that his last tweet wasn’t him. And he’s denying the First Class part. …

  • Anthony (author) said:

    Yeah – just saw that. Updating now…:(

  • Daniel Lioe said:

    I don’t think they’ll do the sentinel program for First Class, I mean they couldn’t even do it for X-3 (just the head falling in a danger room exercise), and quite franckly i wouldn’t want the First Class face off Stryker (he’s a sole character for Wolverine’s story so wouldn’t make sense for him to reappear except to bring bak his guinea pigs but his doing that in X-2), quite frankly I’m hoping and betting a lot on a story involving the Hellfire Club & students’ rupture for the first of First Class.

    If they ever do a Sentinel line story then Stryker wouldn’t be the one doing the Sentinel program since it doesn’t make sense with his creating Weapon XI.

    My opinion Sentinel program shouldn’t be for any but either X-4 or X-5 (though i hope more for a story with Apocalypse for either of them).

  • chris said:

    it would be the government starting the sentinel program because stryker lies about what happened in the wolverine film,and says the mutants were responsible for the military deaths and destruction.so the military would go forward hunting the mutants responsible. and they could do it since the cast is young new actors and their pay would be nowere nere as expensive as hugh jackmon,halley berry,(etc).so a stryker cameo was basicaly what i was saying not the main villain, they should have sinister in it,and of course magneto. i would however like them to add beak,and chamber because they are two of my new favorites.i would like to see husk,and angel salvador as well, but i really would like to see apocalypse but in the magneto film. i think fox has really messed up on a lot of characters and after first class,magneto,wolverine 2,and x4. i hopeit goes back to marvel and is done right.

  • chris said:

    i think glob herman would be cool to see as a younger version in first class to. he was in x-3 but as a cameo and being one of lauren shuller donners favorites i think? he would be cool to see more of.so add him,beak,chamber,husk,angel salvador,prosimian,orb weaver,mammomax,sinister,and have apocalypse somewhere.

  • Joe said:

    I was right after all.

    Actors are not allowed to talk about what movies they will do next, until their agent or the studio gives the okay.

  • X-ified said:

    I hope he does First Class, he’s kinda cute.

  • LucaS! said:

    Yeah, I think he was told to retract what he said by FoX. I think it’s still gonna start in 2010.

  • ken said:

    im still waiting for the x4…

  • chris said:

    i hear that lauren shuler donner says she is going to pitch a x-4 to fox,and the new mutants. all i need to hear now is they plan on adding new x-men special class to the films and generation-x,and a district-x.

  • chris said:

    if they do x-4 they better give the other heroes more story,and bring back cyclops,and add beak and chamber.

  • chris said:

    go to comicbookmovies.com and click the news button you can read for your self.

  • chris said:

    i never really liked the new mutants but i loved new x-men and special class,i loved generation-x,and district-x these should be made they would bank big time. i also look forward to magneto origins,wolverine2,and 3,x-4 and 5,first class 1,2,and 3,gambit origins,deadpool origin. these are the ones i really hope shuler pushes for new mutants not so much i really dislike them and their powers unless they add chamber,husk,and beak like i always say.sinister,and apocalypse,and omega red should be in their to.first class better be the sentinel story and sabre toothe better be in wolverine 2. there you have it as i always ask for it,and give me more glob herman.

  • ken said:

    cool… i cant wait….

  • Bobby Farmer said:

    once they release x-men:first class and magneto,hopefully we hears some news on x-men 4. tim pocock in first class will be good to see him in it.

  • chris said:

    the night of the sentinels. and have glob herman and special class in it.and sinister.

  • Joe said:

    Twitter is for twits.

  • Justin said:

    He did o.k in XMEN-ORIGINS so I guess he could play Young Cyclopse.

  • милeди said:

    Вопросик вот такой возник, кто обьяснит девушке как добавить этот блог в избранное?

  • Bobby Farmer said:

    tim pollock did an helluva job portraying the young scott summer in x-men origins:wolverine,i would love to see more of him in future x-men films,i’m not going to say that he did an better than james mardsden who once played cyclop in the original x-men films. if fox want bryan singer to make ”x-men:first class”,i won’t have no problems with it,they just need to get that and magneto out of the way so they can let us on when they ever going to make x-men 4, i also don’t want no more prequels after they’re done with the other ones. i don’t mind seeing another wolverine sequel in 2011,beside i love wolverine and i love the actor that ’s playing the character who real name is james hawlett if my memory is correct. last one,as long as liev schneider not sure if he ’s going to play sabretooth again in future x-men films, i also don’t mind seeing liev schneider playing that character again as well.
