WHO PLAYED APOCALYPSE IN DAYS OF FUTURE PAST SERIES

That said, don’t discount the possibility that the writers could pick up and include a few choice details from the story, similar to how X2 was partially inspired by 'God Loves, Man Kills' and The Wolverine was based on the limited series of Wolverine comics by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller. So which storylines from the comics may the film end up borrowing from? Early on there was some suggestion that X-Men: Apocalypse could borrow from the villain character’s most famous arc, 'Age of Apocalypse,' but given the end of X-Men: Days of Future Past, it's unlikely that Singer and his team will go in that direction. In both the post-credits scene from Days of Future Pastand the prologue of Apocalypse,we learn about the world’s first mutant: Apocalypse. It’s not entirely clear exactly what kind of role the immortal, powerful mutant will play or what his ultimate goals are, but we can be sure that he will be a formidable foe for the X-Men to face and put down. So now that we know who Apocalypse really is and what he can do, what does that mean for the future of the X-Men franchise? Unlike the situation with Thanos in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Fox isn’t keeping us dangling on a string and have confirmed that Apocalypse will be in the next chapter of the long-running franchise. This was done just to show that this force has been around for such a long time. You’ll notice that the actor playing Apocalypse in end-credits tease is young, but Kinberg also confirmed to us that the same actor will NOT be playing the villain in X-Men: Apocalypse. In 1973, Charles never once calls him 'friend' (although Erik uses the endearment twice), which goes to show how broken their. It was just to give a tease of, ‘This guy is super-powerful, and there was a moment in time when he was essentially treated as a god, and he’s going to rise again in X-Men: Apocalypse.’' Played straight in X-Men: Days of Future Past, with his older self and Professor X (the moment where theyre holding hands is the closest that weve seen them since First Class), but averted with their younger selves. 'Bryan and I just locked into this idea of seeing Apocalypse at the height of his power and glory, which is what we imagined would have been in Egyptian times. As screenwriter Simon Kinberg explained to us in an interview, In addition to having the ability to control every molecule in his body (allowing him to take any size or form and regenerate immediately), he can also project and absorb energy, has telepathic, technopathic, and telekinetic capacity. Born En Sabah Nur, he was one of the first mutants on Earth and his stature is really only matched by his extreme power. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Apocalypse.

Allow us to introduce all of you to the titular villain of the next X-Men movie.
