It looks like Aaron Johnson (Kick-Ass) won’t be trading in his batons for an optic visor. Movieweb reports that contrary to early rumors, Johnson will not play Cyclops or any other role in Matthew Vaughn’s “X-Men: First Class”. As late as a month ago, AICN was reporting that Johnson was a “done deal” to play the role. But the following day, EW said that Johnson wasn’t in the movie, period. Speaking to Movieweb, producer Tarquin Pack debunked the rumor:
Nothing you don’t know about, yeah. Don’t believe everything you read in the papers about Aaron, unfortunately. Aaron’s kind of busy, yeah.
Basically, it looks like at one point Johnson was very close to having the part and for whatever reason, it didn’t work out. As for “Aaron’s kind of busy”, The Playlist reports that Johnson recently became a first-time father. (Source)
