Tim Pocock, who played the young Scott Summers/Cyclops in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, has revealed that he will reprise the role in 20th Century Fox’s X-Men: First Class.
“Currently shooting Australian TV series till February 2010…then X-men first class,” he said on his Twitter account. “Wolverine” producer Lauren Shuler Donner recently hinted that a new “X-Men” movie would start production in 2010.
Written by Josh Schwartz, the film will likely draw from elements of the Marvel Comic of the same name, launched in 2006.
UPDATE: We’re not sure what to make of this, but Pocock has updated his Twitter account with the following:
