'X-Men: First Class' Adds Ray Wise To Cast



During an interview with IGN, "Twin Peaks" and "24" actor Ray Wise confirmed that he'll appear in the currently shooting "X-Men" prequel. According to Wise, the well-established genre actor will begin shooting his role in "First Class" in just a few short weeks.

"I'm playing the Secretary of State of the United States," said Wise of his character. "I'll be going over [to the film's London set] in the next couple of weeks."

But even though his character is bogged down in politics, Wise expects that he's going to be involved in plenty of scenes with huge special effects and elaborate mutant powers. "Well, I think I touch on them," he confirmed. "Yeah, a bit."

Although Wise remained quiet on the specifics of his character, he was quite vocal about his support for the superhero movie's enormous and impressive cast and crew.

"I love Matthew," Wise said of his director. "And Bryan Singer's producing it and [it's got] a great cast — James McAvoy, January Jones, Oliver Platt."
