Russian ‘X-Men: First Class’ Trailer hints on Emma Frost’s role

Tuesday, March 15th, 2011

No new footage of Emma Frost (January Jones) is shown in the recently released Russian trailer for “X-Men: First Class”, save for a few more seconds of Emma’s diamond form in the first trailer, although we do get a closer look of the “Hall of Mirrors” and the possible context behind it.

Title: “Before he was Professor X, he was called Charles”
Title: “Before he was Magneto, he was called Erik”
Xavier: “Hi, my name is Charles Xavier”
Magneto (raising drink): “Here’s to you”
Title: “They were friends” – “One hoped for peace” – “The other was defined by pain” – “Their unique abilities made them different”
Xavier to Magneto: “There is more than you know inside you, more than pain and fury”
Title: “But fate will make them into comrades”
Xavier to Magneto: “You have kindness in you, you can control this, you have strength inside that no one else does. Not even me”
Magneto: “Tomorrow people will know that mutants exist”
Title: “Find out about the beginning of the truth”
Xavier to Magneto: “We can become better”
Magneto to Xavier: “We already are”
Title: “Which will decide our world”
Xavier to Magneto: “Listen to me carefully my friend, killing will not bring you peace”
Magneto to Xavier: “Peace is not my goal”

Emma Frost turns into diamond. The trailer gives us about a second and a half more footage than what the last trailer showed. If you listen closely, you can here the effects of the transformation.




In January, a new still was released wherein Emma Frost and Sebastian Shaw are seen in a living room:

You can see the living room behind the Hall of Mirrors in the new trailer here:


Although the character’s outfit is different from the living room still, this could be Sebastian Shaw trying out Magneto’s new helmet. We can only guess Emma gives it a test run.


The still released in UK’s Empire Magazine:

Final Verdict: Emma Frost is a player behind Magneto’s transformation (we don’t know much details on this, though), and she probably gives his infamous helmet a test run.

All telepathy and physical fights aside, it’s very possible her role won’t go beyond what was revealed in the trailers and interviews. Even so, January Jones has signed on for a three movie deal to play Emma Frost. What do you think about Emma’s role in the movie? Have you enjoyed what’s been shown in the trailers so far?
