IS "KICK-ASS" AARON JOHNSON A NEW CYCLOPS OR MAGNETO IN "X-MEN: FIRST CLASS"

This story has been the number one mystery around the Net last few days: is young Aaron Johnson going to put on a new super hero suit after playing the lead role in "Kick-Ass" recently? He was spotted on a meeting with director Matthew Vaughn and James McAvoy last week in London, which immediately raised rumors about Aaron possibly getting a role in "X-Men: First Class" which is being directed by Matthew Vaughn (who also directed "Kick-Ass") and we already know that James McAvoy got the part of young professor Xavier in it, so which role could Aaron get? Guys over at "SlashFilm" suspect it could be either the role of young Scott Summers, aka Cyclops, or the role of young Magneto. What's even more interesting about this mystery is the fact that earlier this month Aaron has met with Bryan Singer (the man who was supposed to direct the "First Class" in the first place) about the role in "Jack the Giant Killer", the project that stopped Singer from helming the "X-Men" prequel. Since Singer is still producing "First Class" did he draft Aaron for the role of Cyclops or Magneto then?

GUILLERMO DEL TORO OFFICIALLY LEAVES "THE HOBBIT" PROJECT

OK, so the news which is pretty much the hottest item this Monday is the one about Guillermo Del Toro officially leaving the helm of "The Hobbit" adaptation. In an official press release he said that he can no longer cope with the constant delays of the start date of the filming, which is forcing him to delay the other of his future movies. As he said, after nearly two years of living, breathing and designing a world of the Middle Earth, he had to take leave from helming "The Hobbit". Del Toro is still co-writing "The Hobbit" screenplays with Philippa Boyens, Fran Walsh and Peter Jackson. The two-part movie is supposed to have Cate Blanchett, Ron Perlman, Hugo Weaving, Ian McKellen and Andy Serkis in the cast. Who do you think will take the helm instead Del Toro? Peter Jackson himself, his buddy Sam Raimi, or someone else?
