Great Hera! They are just adding more and more to this cast.
Now, they have Nightcrawler's daddy up in this flick
Screenrant reports:
Really? Azazel was introduced during the The Draco storyline. This storyline was NOT loved by many fans, in fact it was hated. So I don't know why we are seeing this character in this movie.Yet another British actor in Jason Flemyng, seen earlier this year in Clash of the Titans and in Matthew Vaughn’s latest movie Kick-Ass has joined the cast of X-Men: First Class as another mutant character. Flemyng will play Azazel, a demonic mutant who happens to be the father of Nightcrawler – the blue teleporting mutant who played a key role in X-Men 2.
In the books, Azazel impregnates Mystique (played by Jennifer Lawrence in X-Men: First Class) and she gives birth to Nightcrawler, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see some sort of story arc involving their relationship in First Class. Azazel is very similar to Nightcrawler in that he can teleport as well but in the X-Men comics, he also possesses other powers such as the ability to shapeshift and fire bolts of energy. I would expect he’ll be de-powered quite a bit for the sake of the movie and be restricted to teleportation like his son.
But then again, it IS this movie. Anything is possible... I swear this flick is becoming the next Cannonball Run

Okay, I am one of the few who loved the Draco storyline. As a matter of fact I fell even more in love with Nightcrawler after that (especially when he was frolicking about nearly nude for two issues)...
Suddenly, I am interested in this movie.
The White Queen isn't British. She's pulling a Madonna, so to speak.
Did you know that is Singer had done X3 he would have had Sigourney Weaver playing the White Queen? How would that have gone over?
