More mutant casting?

If the rumors are to be believed, Alice Eve, star of She’s Out of My League, has been approached to play Emma Frost in the Michael Vaughn’s adaptation of X-Men: First Class.  It’s a rumor for now, as previous “news” had Rosamund Pike playing the blonde telepath.

Not because I liked the very early shows (Seriously, SWATCATS was just not that great), but because my mother didn’t want us to spend all day watching TV. As soon as breakfast was on the table the TV was switched off! Of course, this meant that depending on the complexity of breakfast, I may not get to watch what, at the time, was my favorite cartoon.
