X-Men Films is reporting that Tim Pocock, who played Scott Summers – better known as Cyclops – in X-Men Origins: Wolverine will reprise the role of the beam-shooting mutant in Josh Schwartz's vision of X-Men: First Class.

The information comes from an apparent Twitter posting made by Pocock stating that he'll begin production of the film sometime after February of 2010.

The movie, which is set to follow the early days of Professor Xavier's school for mutants, is bring produced by Lauren Schuler Donner, who has thusfar remained coy about which of the mutants would be appearing.

Donner recently spoke to IGN about some early concepts for the film, saying, "I can't talk about it yet, but yes, they're all good ideas. It is the X-Men's first class, and it's way back when… but I can't tell you which characters."
