Lucas Till Talks Havok In ‘X-Men: First Class’ Sequel
One of the best pieces of casting when it came to ‘looking the part’ ‘First Class’ was Lucas Till as Alex Summers, also known as Havok. While they did take a few liberties, I do think they did a good job with the character. Hopefully we will get a little more screen time for Alex Summers this time, as we didn’t get much character development the first time around.
IGN spoke with Till at E3 this past week about the upcoming sequel.
“All I know is that my mom told me we’re going to start shooting in January. It’s funny because she tells me everything that goes on before I know. I don’t know if you saw, but Havok shoots hula hoops out of his body. I remember when (director Matthew Vaughn) told me, and I was like, ‘NOOOO!’ It’s going to ruin it for all the fans of Havok and I tried to make the best of it, but I really hope in the next one that the chest piece—because there’s always that circle in the middle so you could tell where his power level was at—but not necessarily used as a device to channel the energy from. I want some gauntlets or something to shoot it out of my hands, and I want Polaris in there. I want a sexy green-haired girl to fall in love with. That’s all I’m asking for.”
