Just when you thought it's over, here we are with
X-Men: First Class update!
Twin Peaks star,
Ray Wise revealed that he'll be playing the Secretary of State in

You already remember the official synopsis, but still, little reminder of “the epic beginning of the X-Men saga.
Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known.
In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-Men.”
And, here's full cast list:
James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier,

Bill Milner as Young Magneto,
