"The X-Men: First Class sequel will focus on Magneto, according to screenwriter Simon Kinberg. Kinberg, who is penning a script for the film in collaboration with helmer Matthew Vaughn, hinted that Michael Fassbender&amp;#039;s villain will be taking centre stage in the follow-up.   &amp;quot;Magneto becomes the villain ultimately of the franchise but he&amp;#039;s a much more complicated character as a young man. He&amp;#039;s someone you sympathise with, you care about you root for even though might not necessarily agree with his methods, you understand his philosophy,&amp;quot; Kinberg told MTV News. The scribe went on to say that audiences will be &amp;quot;afraid&amp;quot; of Magneto in the sequel, but he will not be a &amp;quot;full-on&amp;quot; villain. &amp;quot;I think the truth is ultimately that because Michael is such an interesting actor, he&amp;#039;ll never be full-on anything. He&amp;#039;ll have a villainous side and he&amp;#039;ll have a sympathetic human side you&amp;#039;ll be able to relate to but you&amp;#039;ll also be afraid of him. He becomes Magneto, he says &amp;#039;Call me Magneto&amp;#039; at the end of the first movie.&amp;quot; X-Men: First Class was released in cinemas in May last year. Vaughn signed on to direct the follow-up in January. Watch X-Men: First Class star Jason Flemyng discuss the sequel with Digital Spy below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
