Lucas Till hits the black carpet at the Blu-ray/DVD release of X-Men: First Class, presented by IGN, at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood on Thursday night (September 8).
The 21-year-old actor joked with HitFix about almost not being in the movie, which is out on DVD shelves now.
“They could’ve been trying to goof me or whatever…[but] I went out, and they were flying me to London, and [they] told me I was auditioning for Havok and Beast,” Lucas shared. “And I was like, ‘I know you’ll kill me, but if I get Beast, I’m not in the movie. I’m not going through that makeup everyday.’”
He added, “I have so much respect for Jason [Flemying], Jennifer [Lawrence], and Nick [Hoult]. They had to go through like hours of makeup before we even got there. It’s just rough.”
Lucas Till snaps a pic with his awesome cake from Sugar Factory as he celebrates his birthday at Paris Las Vegas on Friday night (August 12).
The 21-year-old actor, in Express, and a group of friends first dined at the Sugar Factory American Brasserie, sampling the Caesar salad, All-American pizza and grilled NY strips. Lucas was also impressed by Sugar Factory’s new sweet tea goblet noting how delicious it was numerous times.
After dinner, Lucas and his group headed over to Chateau Nightclub and into the VIP area. While DJ Casanova spun the soundtrack to the birthday celebration, a “Happy Birthday Lucas” scrolled across Chateau’s state-of-the-art LED screen behind the impressive marble fireplace DJ booth.
Before finishing the night out, Lucas made sure to stock up on Sugar Factory’s candy store — taking some blue raspberry sour belts and Swedish fish.
Lucas Till caught up with JJJ at the 2011 San Diego Comic-Con over the weekend and dished about the X-Men experience and more.
“It was the best time of my life. I was in a foreign country, getting paid to do a superhero movie,” Lucas, 20, told us. “It was the probably the coolest job I’ll ever have.”
He added, “Every day, I still can’t believe I snuck into that cast. Just a bunch of brilliant actors…they’re as much legends off screen that they are on.”
