Maybe he Xavier wasn't bald when he was in his mid-20s..he has to be the same (almost) as Magneto, if he was a kid around WW2, then they were 20 something in the 50s..meaning..he was a greaser...hair slicked back, no need for gas....he used telepathic abilities to ride his Motorcycle....

I wonder who Wolverine will be...this is going to be very interesting...

since Wolverine doesn't age as regular folk it should be Hugh Jackman

 

Not only that, but prof X 1st recruited young scott at the end of wolverine. So wolverine was definitely young then (well, relatively speaking).

Nope, Xavier was definitely bald as a young man, and much younger than McAvoy is now:

I really hope Wolverine is played by Hugh Jackman
