There’s a new rumor regarding X-Men First Class and this time it has to do with the team’s leader, Scott Summers aka Cyclops. According to AICN, director Matthew Vaughn may decide to keep it in the Kick-Ass family by bringing on British actor Aaron Johnson for the part. Johnson was previously rumored to be in contention for the role of Spider-Man, which we all know went to Andrew Garfield, so why shouldn’t he give Cyc a shot?

Aaron Johnson lied to us! The Kick-Ass star was rumored to be a front runner to play Peter Parker in the rebooted Spider-Man franchise and when asked about it in an interview with Cinemablend he stated, “I would play another superhero, but not necessarily soon.” Does 2012 seem that far away to you? The LA Times is reporting that Johnson along with Terminator Salvation star Anton Yelchin has been added to the Spider-Man shortlist that currently includes Jamie Bell, Andrew Garfield, Josh Hutcherson, Alden Ehrenreich, and Frank Dillane.

As I said right after seeing this film at ShoWest, this film does what it says it will, it kick’s ass. There are some things that I could pick at if I really wanted to but overall it’s a darkly comedic film about fake superheros fighting crime and it’s some of the most fun I’ve had in theaters all year. The tone, the dialogue and the comedic-violence are brilliantly well executed…I was sold as soon as I saw the adorable Chloe Moretz call a group of mobsters “cunts” and stab the living shit out of them…

Kick-Ass wants you to be their fan on FaceBook. As much as I hate having to become a fan or add my name to anything in order to get something, it’s a pretty small price to pay in order to have access to new clips, live interviews with the director and more… And I have to say, this film is completely worth it (check out our ShoWest First Look).
We have one of the latest clips for you of Kick-Ass riding around in The Red Mist’s cleverly named “Mist-Mobile” with all the finest crime stopping toys that a rich superhero could buy. The two “super-heroes” played by Aaron Johnson and Christopher Mintz-Plasse have two very different ideas about what it takes to be a superhero, but both of them are equals when it comes to horrible dancing. Check it out…
