Alice Eve Cast As Emma Frost In 'X-Men: First Class'

According to Heat Vision, actress Alice Eve ('She's out of my League') has been cast to play Emma Frost in the upcoming 'X-Men: First Class' movie from 20th Century Fox.

Eva will join actors James McAvoy (Professor X) and Michael Fassbender (Magneto) in this Matthew Vaughn directed X-Men film.

X-MEN: FIRST CLASS begins production this summer for a June 3, 2011 release. Bryan Singer, who conceived the story for FIRST CLASS and directed the original “X-Men” and its sequel “X2,” is producing along with Lauren Shuler Donner and Simon Kinberg.

X-MEN: FIRST CLASS, following the classic Marvel mythology, charts 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.
