We heard late last year that Matthew Vaughn has the film rights to Mark Millar’s upcoming comic, The Secret Service, which should see its first issue released sometime this year. Millar himself has been updating on Vaughn’s film adaptation, ComicBookMovie report, and talking about how Mark Hamill will have a pivotal role, but won’t be [...]
With X-Men First Class finally available on Blu-Ray this week (check out our review here), we got a chance to talk to our favourite teleporting Devil-a-like, Jason Flemyng. Given how many films the man’s been in over a 20 year long career, the hardest part of interviewing him is staying on the subject at hand [...]
In a year awash with superhero movies a new X-Men film was in danger of being overlooked, or even avoided altogether given the toxic slap of X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men: Origins Wolverine and yet here we are with me telling you that X-Men: First Class is tremendous fun and edges up to X2 [...]
There’s no doubt that the comic book world has been kind to Matthew Vaughn of late. After the double-whammy of Kick-Ass and X-Men: First Class, he has yet to commit to his next project, though a couple of properties connected to Mark Millar (who wrote Kick-Ass) are believed to be under consideration. Firstly, there is [...]
Mark Millar’s creator-owned comic label, Millarworld, has proved a veritable feast for studios, eager to produce their own Wanted or Kick-Ass. While Sony prepares War Heroes and 20th Century Fox chews on Nemesis, however, Matthew Vaughn is returning to the fold for seconds, having just purchased the rights to the comic book creator’s Superior (via [...]
With mere weeks to go until the really rather brilliant X-Men: First Class hits on Blu-ray and DVD, a new deleted scene from the movie has surfaced giving us an altogether different perspective on one particular moment from the film. In the sequence where Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) and Erik Lensherr (Michael Fassbender) attempt to [...]
We’ve gone X-Men: First Class crazy over the past few months for the simple reason that we love it. You can see why by reading Adam’s review of the movie here. Twentieth Century Fox have sent over this brand new clip for the movie which is called Training Montage and does what it says on [...]
Last week we managed to tap into our dormant mutant powers and attend the press conference for X-Men: First Class to hear firsthand experiences of the production from key members of the cast and co-scribe Jane Goldman. Our review of the film is here and you can check it out right now as it is [...]
Last week I got to spend some time with Spanish actor Alex Gonzalez who makes his big Hollywood debut as Riptide tomorrow when Matthew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class is released in the UK. Riptide is the the tornado-conjuring mutant henchman of chief villain Sebastian Shaw.. In the interview, I got to find out what it [...]
Dave Williams has produced some of our favourite original posters over the past few months. If you’ve missed his previous works, you can check out his Back to the Future prints here and here. He’s just given us a heads up on his latest work which coincides with tomorrow’s release of X-Men: First Class and [...]
It’s pretty likely that this article is late. Following on the heels of (at least eight of) our competitors. That’s because we believe that the interesting part of the interview this article comes from is the rest of it. Frankly, reporting about Mark Millar’s next project, one we’ve already written about seems pointless. We like [...]
We’ve gone rather X-Men: First Class crazy today. We’ve had Adam’s review of the movie which you can read here and some excellent posts by Ben detailing our chat with Matthew Vaughn over the weekend. It’s been broken down into three parts which feature Writing and Character, Production and Relationship with the Comics. Once you’ve [...]
HeyUGuys recently joined several other film news sites at a round table interview with Matthew Vaughn to talk about all things X-Men: First Class. The interview lasted over 45 minutes, and because it was only for sites that write about film (unlike other round tables where we share with all sorts of outlets), it’s pretty [...]

Our review of X-Men: First Class follows, for our comprehensive three-part interview with Matthew Vaughn click here. Cast your mind back to those grossly-misjudged attempts to weave together a Darth Vader origin story, where events, history and character arcs fully ingrained into the previous mythology were awkwardly shoe-horned in to the latter installments, with scant [...]
We’ve gone rather X-Men: First Class barmy over the past few days but that’s because we LOVE it! If you haven’t seen Ben’s initial thoughts from the movie yet, you can have a little read here where in a nutshell he tells you how much he loved it! Our full review of the movie will [...]
Hey X-Friends, I think you’ve had just about enough teasing for the forthcoming X-Men: First Class film haven’t you? No? Why read on then. Comic Book Movie spotted this nifty little piece of high class clippage which throws in a few behind the scenes moments and interview with the principal cat into the huge wave [...]
Note: These are our initial thoughts and our complete review of the film will be posted on Wednesday, 25th May. Fox’s X-Men franchise has become a little tarnished of late. After two very good movies, that used superpowers as a background to themes of isolation, discrimination and acceptance, we had two less good films, let [...]
Twentieth Century Fox have released a new batch of International character posters for their new movie, X-Men: First Class which are mildly better than the ones we’ve seen previously. The movie is directed by Matthew Vaughn, produced by Lauren Shuler Donner, Bryan Singer, Simon Kinberg and stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Rose Byrne, January Jones, [...]
