The Huffington Post has posted four new television spots for the film “X-Men: First Class”. The spots feature Emma Frost (January Jones), Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender).

The film is set to be released nationwide June 3, but has already been receiving great reviews. According to Collider, the film is “a huge home run…Everything from the great script to the awesome performances by the entire cast (with special mention to James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender) makes this X-Men film my favorite in the franchise,” and according to HeyUGuys, the prequel is like that of the wildly successful “Star Trek” prequel in which “[t]he talented screenwriting duo of Jane Goldman and director Matthew Vaughn have made a fantastic effort here to bring the 60’s age of civil unrest and cold world paranoia successfully into a comic book milieu, and weave what is essentially a period, character-based (a term which don’t normally spring to mind in such a genre) espionage thriller with big action spectacle thrills.”

Hopefully, while these first thoughts about the film will ease your mind, these promos will help hype you up for the film even more. Here they are below for your viewing pleasure.
