Shaw and Emma lead the Hellfire Club in ‘X-Men: First Class’

Wednesday, April 20th, 2011

Alejandro Gonzalez (Riptide) says Shaw and Emma Frost are the leaders and brains behind the Hellfire Club in the “X-Men: First Class” movie. So, this gives us a little more insight into Emma’s role, and we now know she won’t be a background villain according Riptide’s scale of importance.

We’ve seen very little of Riptide in the trailer, what kind of personality will he have in this film and what was your character dynamic within the Hellfire club?

Gonzalez: In the comic, he´s a very solitary person and would prefer to work alone, but he ultimately realizes that he needs to work with the rest of the team to accomplish their goals. I think there’s a good balance of dynamics within the Hellfire Club, Shaw and Emma are the leaders and brains behind the operation, while Azazel and Riptide are the more physical and action-oriented of the group.
