Zoe Kravitz, Jason Flemyng, Bill Milner and Morgan Lily were also reportedly added to cast. By Kara Warner January Jones Photo: Mike Coppola/ Getty Images “X-Men: First Class” has added several new names to its cast, according to Deadline Hollywood . Director Michael Vaughn (“Kick-Ass”) and producer Bryan Singer have reportedly lined up “Mad Men” actress January Jones to play telepathic beauty Emma Frost — a role that was previously rumored to belong to “She’s Out of My League” star Alice Eve . Other reported names added are: Zoe Kravitz, daughter of Lenny, who is set to play Angel; Jason Flemyng as Azazel, the father of Nightcrawler; Bill Milner as the young Magneto (Michael Fassbender will play the elder); and Morgan Lily as the young Raven. They join previously announced “First Class” mutants: James McAvoy (Xavier), Nicholas Hoult (Beast), Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), Caleb Landry Jones (Banshee), Lucas Till (Havoc) and Edi Gathegi (Darwin). Other players include Kevin Bacon as the villain, Rose Byrne as Xavier’s love interest Moira MacTaggert, and Oliver Platt as the Man in Black. Production is scheduled to begin Monday in London. When MTV News caught up with Vaughn recently, he spoke about his ever-expanding cast. “It doesn’t feel that busy,” Vaughn said regarding any hesitation in cramming too many mutants into the film. “I don’t feel worried about it. I think it will be really cool to see all these guys doing their stuff. I’m very keen that it has a lot of heart, this movie. You understand where these characters have come from, and you obviously know where they’re going, but to see that very important point of their lives where they’re discovering their power and working out their ethical take on what to do with their power is a very interesting story to tell.” How do you feel about the new “X-Men: First Class” additions?
