** During filming, Creator/JamesMcAvoy and Creator/RoseByrne were 36 years old while Creator/MichaelFassbender was 38, but their characters are in their late forties/early fifties in 1983.
** Creator/NicholasHoult was 25 years old during principal photography, but if we assume that his character was around 20 in 1962, then in 1983 Beast is pushing 40.
** Likewise, Mystique, who grew up with Charles, would be in her late 40s at the youngest, while Creator/JenniferLawrence was 24-25 during principal photography. Being a shapeshifter, though, she can look as young as she wants.
** Creator/LucasTill is 8 months younger than Hoult, and Havok is only a couple of years younger than Beast. Alex Summers is roughly two decades older than his brother Scott, but Creator/TyeSheridan is just 6 years Till's junior.
