Producer Lauren Shuler Donner first thought of a prequel based on the young X-Men during the production of X2, and later producer Kinberg suggested to 20th Century Fox an adaptation of the comic-book series X-Men: First Class. Set primarily in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the film focuses on the origins of, and relationship between Charles Xavier / Professor X and Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto and their respective teams of mutants, the X-Men and the Brotherhood. Principal photography began in September 1999 in Toronto, Canada, and ended in March 2000. John Logan, Joss Whedon, Ed Solomon, Christopher McQuarrie, and David Hayter wrote the script, with Hayter receiving sole credit. Although he was not a comic book fan, Singer was fascinated by the analogies of prejudice and discrimination that X-Men offered. Eventually, Bryan Singer signed on to direct in July 1996.
