X-Men First Class Sees Return of Director and Entire Cast

Matthew Vaughn has signed on to direct the upcoming "X-Men: First Class" sequel. Bryan Singer will also be returning as producer for the film.

The entire lead cast, which includes James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Rose Byrne, January Jones, Jennifer Lawrence, will also be reprising their respective roles. The original film wasn't a huge blockbuster but did manage to bring in a decent $353 million worldwide. Fox is hoping that the sequel will have a bigger draw.

The film, which will be released in 2013, has no start dates for filming and no exact release date as of yet.
