Recently we've seen some cool stuff highlighting X-Men: First Class in the form some vintage magazine covers featuring several of the characters, and a killer fan-made 1960's style opening credit sequence for the film. Now we have a bit or promotional material that you'll probably see at your local theater in the form of what very well could be the last poster for the film as the June 3rd release date looms closer. Honestly, it looks a little too photoshopped for my tastes, but it's not as bad as that one Fast Five poster and it does fit in with the style that we've previously seen on the poster for X2: X-Men United. See for yourself in full below!

Here's the new poster for X-Men: First Class from Empire (updated - we've added another below!):

There was another poster that I think looks MUCH better debuted as well. Check it out below via TDB!

Before Charles Xavier (McAvoy) and Erik Lensherr (Fassbender) took the names Professor X & Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for their first time, even working together as friends.

X-Men: First Class is directed by British director Matthew Vaughn, of Layer Cake, Stardust and Kick-Ass. Bryan Singer, director of X-Men 1 and 2, is producing and wrote the story. The screenplay was written by quite a few writers, including Josh Schwartz ("Gossip Girl" & "Chuck"), Jamie Moss (Street Kings), Ashley Miller ("Fringe", Thor), Zack Stentz, and finally Jane Goldman (Kick-Ass). Marv Films & 20th Century Fox will be bringing X-Men: First Class to theaters everywhere June 3rd this summer. Watch the first trailer.
