Ellen Page on X-Men: First Class: "I don't even know what it is."

The actress, who played Kitty Pryde in X-Men 3, hasn't been approached for any future mutant movies!

This from MTV's Splash Page:

MTV News caught up with Ellen Page during a press event for Whip It to ask her whether she'll reprise her role in any of the upcoming X-Men films—like, for instance, X-Men: First Class.

"I don't even know what it is, so I couldn't tell you," said Page.

However, she did confess an affection for the character, "I think Kitty Pryde's rad, so who knows what will happen," she said. "I have no idea, though."

The actress was quick to add that her response should be taken at face value. She really hasn't heard anything, "I'm not saying that as Internet innuendo," she laughed. "There's truly nothing happening."

Isn't 1st class about the beginning of the xmen, w/ cyclops and jean as kids? Wouldn't Kitty be, oh IDK, a fetus??

Wow, this made the front page quick! :)

I think she's telling the truth. Though i think it'd be unfair to critisize her for not knowing what 'First Class' is - im a big Marvel comic book fan and even i never read that series, lol! Im not actually a huge fan of Page's. I would muchprefer to see...

Olivia Wilde for Shadowcat!!!

I don't think Kitty is all that necessary. She's a fine character, but I don't think she should be in First Class.

The only X-Men who should be in this movie (excluding any cameos they put in, cameos are fine with me) are:

Professor X
Cyclops
Jean Grey
Beast
Ice-Man
Angel

joshw24 - Please don't bother! That series is ret-conned garbage! Just like since the early 90s when Marvel had Wolvie EVERYWHERE they are now trying to mislead younger readers into believing that the X-Men were regularly a part of the larger Marvel universe, which is not true! Ugh! More continuity headaches...

And what are those costumes about? Lies, I tell you, all lies! X-Men:The Hidden Years is a much better series with a similar premise, but it covers a lost period in the team's history as opposed to amending or contradicting established fact. John Byrne does it again!

Tyler@ both iceman and angel would barely be a gleam in thier dads sperm during 1st class. They cannot be in it.

JoshWilding - 9/25/2009, 2:26 PM
TYLER: I agree completely - however we all know Fox will [frick] it up somehow and throw in a pile of characters that shouldnt be there! :(

JonF: Thanks for the tip - iwas planning on picking up the series at some point in the future but ill have second thoughts now! :)

GUNSMITH: LMAO! :D
JonF
JonF - 9/25/2009, 2:32 PM
superdog - If that isn't the roster, then they shouldn't bother making it!
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/25/2009, 2:34 PM
@ jonf i completely agree man

@ superdog ... but they were in the first comics with the x-men

If handled by the right director who is able to balance it out between the relatively small team of First Class, why not have Ice-Man and Angel? Both are great characters.

Josh: Good point about Fox :)
If there is any franchise I want to see back in Marvel's hands, X-Men would probably be it, though Fantastic Four is a close second.

JoshWilding - 9/25/2009, 2:46 PM
TYLER: yeah, i have to agree with both of those (seeing as they're the two Fox have screwed up most IMO!) As much as i enjoyed seeing characters like Gambit in Origins, its completely screwed up the continuity of the films! First Class should either be the beginning of a new franchise and forget the screw ups previously made with characters like Iceman and Angel!
InTylerWeTrust
InTylerWeTrust - 9/25/2009, 2:53 PM
Yep, they should start a new continuity with First Class, and establish it as a fresh, new beginning for the X-franchise, free from the previous X-continuity.

MovieTheaterLad -Don't see how that's possible as mutants' powers don't manifest until puberty.

samd577 - 9/25/2009, 3:01 PM
if mutants powers dont manifest until puberty, then what was up with the start of Wolverine?
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/25/2009, 3:04 PM
@ samd say thanx to fox 4 that awesome idea.... twats
InTylerWeTrust
InTylerWeTrust - 9/25/2009, 3:09 PM
Fox didn't come up with the idea of Wolvie showing his powers at a very young age. The Origins comic series came up with that.
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/25/2009, 3:10 PM
my bad ... fox are still twats tho i stand by that
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 9/25/2009, 3:17 PM
Roscoe182: You're right about that!

I appreciate that they're two seperate divisios of FOX but i really dont understand how they make great TV shows like Bones, House and 24 but make flop films like Elektra and Fantastic Four! (yes, i know taht they did well financially but they were both crap)
InTylerWeTrust
InTylerWeTrust - 9/25/2009, 3:48 PM
I can answer why Fox Channel makes good shows, but Fox movies suck. There is one thing Fox TV has that Fox Movie Studios dont: Tom Rothman!

Dear God LEE I bet you've never watched Bones, just like you've never watched Supernatural! You've really gotta stop slagging things ogg you've never seen! Bones is an amazing TV show - what is it with you and your CSI obsession!?!

If not for the simpsons, I'd have no reason to go near fox
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/25/2009, 5:02 PM

JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 9/25/2009, 5:06 PM
Roscoe182: You hated Bones as well!?! Its one of my favourite TV shows! Still, we all have our own tastes i guess!

Hey, as anyone else seen the latest episode of Supernatural? Man, that stuff with Castiel was hilarious! That guy should play Daredevil without a doubt!
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/25/2009, 5:11 PM
indeed josh il be honest im sure its good if u watched it from season 1 i didnt so that cud b why but if it helps i dnt really like csi either how many times do we need a flash back in to a body as it gets stabed
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/25/2009, 5:13 PM
whats supernatural like iv never had chance 2 watch it
supermarioworldE
supermarioworldE - 9/25/2009, 5:33 PM
@roscoe, the simpsons is a rare gem indeed in the mediocre shows of fox.

btw, supernatural is a great show, you should definitely see it
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/25/2009, 5:39 PM
ok i shall give it a watch later after smallville me thinks
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 9/25/2009, 6:09 PM
Roscoe182: Supernatural is amazing! Id advise watching it from Season 1 though - it has an ongoing storyline thats worked its way right up until now in the th and its far more rewarding to have watched it from the start! (like Bones i guess!)
