Apocalypse Olivia Munn IS Psylocke!

[CyclopsSummers]

Singer forgot the movie sets in 1983 ?? She will be adult like Gambit, not a teen like Cyclops.
Hate this fact that some characters will be older Im surprised

If people are angry about Micheal B. Jordan playing Human Torch, can you imagine the backlash about an Asian Wonder Woman?

After Kingpin in Dardedeveil 2003, Electro in ASM2, there Human Torch !!

Former Psylocke Mei Melancon has given this casting choice her seal of approval on twitter.

Until we find out more we can't tell what part she will have in the story

either way its worth remembering its not gonna be the comic book route its gonna be the movie universe route with its differences

 

[psylockolussus]

I can't wait to see Psylocke!

I want to see Olivia Munn interacting with Halle, Famke and Anna someday.

 

[psylockolussus]

Is psylocolossus having a seizure?

Nah... I just clapped my hands when I saw the news on YouTube. I'm just fine.

Beast Moira Charles can't be the only adults

 

[xrs13]

Plus it kinda sets her up for being around the same age as reynolds if they want to use her in X-Force.

 

[Phoenetik27]

wow! really nice casting.

I agree with someone that FOX is highly aiming at the international market with this after the success of Days of Future Past. It is very interesting how "race politics" change with commercial success...

I really hope they will go for X-FORCE next. I'm really not that excited for the solo movies of Gambit and Deadpool. I want an X-team and no boring solo shows...X-Force with Cable, Wolverine, Deadpool, Psylocke, Archangel and Domino would be fantastic!

X-Force movie:

Maybe after they have been freed from the control of being Apocalypse's horsemen in "X-Men: Apocalypse" Archangel, Psylocke and Wolverine make sure that he will never been reborn and fight Clan Akkaba who cloned Apocalpyse as a child...(free adaptation of X-Force comic book and the Dark Angel Saga)...

 

[Havok83]

IMO, she's ALOT older than I expected them to cast. I dont like it. Especially for the romance with Warren, Id rather they had gone with someone closer in age to him. Olivia would work better in a future timeline, but not in Apocalypse

 

[Dark Raven]

Even if she never appears in the blue swimsuit in the movie, I want Olivia Munn to do a photoshoot of herself as Psylocke in the classic costume.

Well we don't know exactly how old she's meant to be in the film. And the thing about Olivia is that Asians don't age.

Yeah, I agree. Don't think we will get their relationship explored now which is a shame.

 

[Lip]

I think they'll probably go for Angel/Jean/Scott.

 

[Super Jim]

Just thought about this.

Wouldn't it be cool if Psylocke, at the start of the movie, looked somewhat like this:

She could then be taken by Apocalypse and turned into one of his Horsemen, and after the transformation look like this:

In the comics she's been Death, but assuming that will be Archangel, I wonder which Horseman she will be?

 

[Havok83]

Well we don't know exactly how old she's meant to be in the film. And the thing about Olivia is that Asians don't age.

We dont but I can almost guarantee you she wont be a teenager. She looks good but at 34-35 during filming, she looks signficantly older than the other young actors.

While more minor, I also dont like that they cast an American. It wish they had gone with a Brit. I hope they at least keep that part of her heritage intact and hopefully OM is good at doing an accent

 

[Mad Ones]

I see no reason why Angel and Psylocke can't still have a relationship.

 

[JP]

If Angel is 16 like Scott, Jean and Storm...

 

[MakeMinesMarvel]

Munn and Shipp have arguably been the most controversial castings so far as far quality of actor.

 

[Mad Ones]

If Angel is 16 like Scott, Jean and Storm...

If that's the case then I agree. However, I don't think he will be.

 

[kasjan]

Hope she has more screen time than in X3.

Which takes place in '83.

Which takes place in ancient Egypt, main action is in 1983, but that doesn't mean rest of the movie.

I hope she works on her British

I hope McAvoy works on his american english

Pyslocke in a bikini!!

Topless Betsy or go fuc... yourself.

Kinda crazy how this thread has been moving. Do people love Psylocke that much? Munn? or a combination of both?

Psylocke is my favorite female character in comics.
Sexy, sexy, sexy ass kicker..., and Munn is sexy too.

I've never liked Psylocke. As a kid she wasn't in any of my video games or in TAS.

You should watch TAS again.

 

[Mad Ones]

Minor cameo appearances didn't mean anything to me when I was 10 lol.

 

[Malik]

Wonder why she only had a cameo in the entire run of tas.

 

[GuestStar2004]

One of the first things bryan singer said about apocalypse was

“I’m excited because I want to start introducing familiar characters at different ages and also explore the ‘80s.”

so who knows

 

[Super Jim]

^ But that's just a cryptic way of saying:

'I'm going to have a young Scott, Jean, Ororo and Kurt in the movie'.

 

[The Infernal]

Not sure what to think of the casting. I'm aware of Munn, but only vaguely. I'll hold off judgement until I see her in costume and in a trailer.
