Lucas Till Cast as Havok; Aaron Johnson no longer Attached to X-Men: First Class?

Just a few days ago a rumor was circulated that Aaron Johnson(Kick-Ass) had signed on to play Scott "Cyclops" Summers in X-Men: First Class. Now Entertainment Weekly says those rumors are completely false. Johnson was never a part of the prequel, despite having been seen at a meeting with director Matthew Vaughn.

This news comes in the wake of a confirmed bit of casting news, that Lucas Till will be taking on the role of Alex "Havok" Summers in the film. Havok is the younger, insecure brother of Cyclops. Till is probably best known as the love interest of Miley Cyrus in Hannah Montana: The Movie.

So here's who we know is confirmed as of right now: 

James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier
Michael Fassbender as Eric "Magneto" Lensherr
Caleb Landry Jones as Sean "Banshee" Cassidy
Nicholas Hoult as Hank "Beast" McCoy
Alice Eve as Emma Frost

Amber Heard and Rosamund Pike are said to be in talks to play Mystique and Moira MacTaggert respectively, but nothing has been signed as of yet.
