Special X-Men: First Class Throwback Magazine Cover Highlights January Jones' Assets
· X-Men: First Class is poised to be the superhero movie of the summer for Mad Men fans, and not just because it takes place in the swingin' '60s. January Jones co-stars as the duplicitous Emma Frost, and if this new Total Film cover is any indication, those upset because Betty Draper's wardrobe is too constrictive will be quite pleased. Click through from some titillation, then stick around for more Buzz Break.

So Anna Faris is even more awesome than I suspected. I want to hang out with her.
I've never read a comic book in my life and my memory of the first three "X-Men" films is hazy at best, but for some reason I'm quite looking forward to this one. Perhaps it's the excellent cast, or indeed the "Mad Men" period setting, which is an era that I love movies (and TV shows, as it turns out) to take place in.
So we can say her mutation will be similar to that of Magneto, except that she can manipulate silicon.
