Casting the mighty Cyclops in the First Class sequel

Who will play the elder Summers's bother? Also, look at his chin. Memorize it....thank me later. |
X-men First Class was one of those movies that left people wanting more. Not entirely in a bad way, either. Yes, it had it's issues, but it also had a ridiculously rushed production schedule. You can't make an incredible film with people breathing down your neck, caring more about how fast you get something done, rather than how well it gets done. Despite this, Matthew Vaughn did an incredible job with his X-men story. Seeing mistakes in the first one only made me want to see them fixed in a sequel, and we will be getting that sequel.
A time will come when I'll write about who they've cast, what story they might be using, who the villains are, and all that jazz. For now, I want to focus on something specific. Although Xavier is technically the "leader" of the X-men, there has always been someone else who led the team into the field, trained a lot of new mutants, and has been someone to look up to. Cyclops.
