I’m a nerd with a penis, so yeah, this is good news. Deal with it! Digital Spy reports:
Amber Heard is the latest actress to be linked to X-Men: First Class. According to Production Weekly, 20th Century Fox has “strong interest” in recruiting the Joneses star to play blue-skinned mutant Mystique in director Matthew Vaughn’s prequel. Rebecca Romijn portrayed the character in the first three X-Men movies. The publication has also reported that Rosamund Pike is in the running to play Charles Xavier’s assistant Moira MacTaggert. MacTaggert appeared briefly in 2006’s X-Men: The Last Stand and was played by Olivia Williams. Rumors emerged last week connecting Pike to the part of Emma Frost. Inglourious Basterds star Michael Fassbender has reportedly declined an offer to screen test for villain Magneto. James McAvoy is the only confirmed cast member, playing a younger version of Sir Patrick Stewart’s Xavier.
I say this is good news, because this (NSFW) will be prancing around naked in blue body paint. Amber Heard. Naked. Body paint. Whole movie. Basically what I’m trying to say is that Mystique is now the #1 on the list of people I want to have sex with who don’t exist. Sorry, Cheetarah. It’s not you, it’s me.
