Bryan Singer announces 'X-Men: Apocalypse' will hit theaters in 2016
Right now, Bryan Singer is hard at work finishing "
X-Men: Days Of Future Past," and even so, he took a moment to Tweet this morning that we can also look forward to "
X-Men: Apocalypse" in 2016.
Several sites are reporting a May 27, 2016 date for the film, although that wasn't part of Singer's Tweet.
Apocalypse is a very powerful adversary for the X-Men, and if you want to talk about a role that gives an actor room to play something so over the top that they'll forget where the top is, Apocalypse is perfect for that.
Thousands of years old, Apocalypse is so strong that he has actually been able to restrain the Hulk when the Hulk was angry. He has preposterous stamina, he's practically invulnerable, he can fly, he can teleport, he can alter his molecular structure to look like anything or anyone and he can mimic anyone else's super-powers as well. He can use energy to heal himself, to shoot psychic blasts, and to generate force fields.
Oh… and he's basically immortal, possessing blood so complex that one drop of it can rewrite the genetic code of any other blood it comes into contact with. So… yeah. He's sort of a big deal.
More on this as details come in.
