X-Men: First Class Gets Beastly

Things are speeding up now in casting news. Must mean production is starting up soon!
Fox announced today another new addition to the X-Men: First Class flick – Nicholas Hoult as Beast!
You remember him! He was the little boy Hugh Grant adopted in About A Boy. And of course, you Brits know him from Skins!
Solid choice we think.
Thoughts?
