That Film Stew Podcast

Directed by Matthew Vaughan and produced by Bryan Singer, X-Men: First Class is the superhero film based on the X-Men characters appearing in Marvel Comics. Luke and Nathan return to 2011 to the fourth mainline film (fifth overall) in the X-Men film series that takes the story back to 1962 to initially serve as a franchise reboot but eventually was retconned as a legitimate prequel to X-Men (2000). During the height of the Cold War, a mutant named Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) meets a fellow mutant named Erik Lehnsherr (Michael Fassbender). Despite their vastly different backgrounds -- Charles grew up with a wealthy family, while Erik lost his parents at Auschwitz -- the two become close friends. As the world teeters on the brink of a nuclear war, Charles and Erik with other mutants join forces to save humanity.
