Will Charles lose his ability to walk in X-Men: First Class?

Fans all know that Professor Xavier become wheelchair bound at some point in his life, but many wondered if we’d see this play out in X-MEN: FIRST CLASS or a future film. Star James McAvoy gave the answer to IGN.

Spoiler…proceed with caution!

McAvoy says “We see [in the film] why he can no longer walk and why he is in a wheelchair. And hopefully we’ll find out why he lost his hair as well. In the comics he loses his hair when he sort of gains or discovers his powers. But obviously that is not the way they wanted to go in this case.”
