You can definitely tell the studio is trying to find someone else to hang the franchise on with Jackman repeatedly mentioning his time is coming to an end.
A strong Cyclops is exactly who they need.
bingo!

Cyclops needs to beat Wolverine in a fight and humiliate him in the process, that's how you win the kids over. As for critics and adults, you make him shine in the movie by doing what the Russo brothers did with Captain America.
I really like this route. I think a story where he's able to establish his character like in Astonishing X-men would be excellent. The difficulty in this is obviously trying to do so in the midst of introducing Jean and Storm with their own character development. Then you also Got Apocalypse's character to flesh out. Lots of juggling here but they've been doin a great job since First class.

X-Men Apocalypse is probably my most anticipated X-Men movie ever...partly because of Cyclops. I can't wait to see what they do with him for Apocalypse..
I hope we get some more comics accurate costumes this time.
It definetly is the most anticipated, partly so because of Cyclops but I think the last 3 movies being pretty good to excellent meshed with the Ultimate Marvel villain are larger reason. I don't hope for more comic accurate costumes. yuck are you kidding me? This is real life, yellow underwear over blue pants doesn't make you look like a defender of the defenseless more like a tool. Im not down for the all black unless they are fighting Apoc, his army and the 4 horsemen at night, which I strongly doubt. More military like outfits would seem proper.

Full optic blast ? leadership ? in this movie maybe he will be a kid or a teen. What leadership ? It will focus on characthers'development from prequel (Xavier, Mystique, Magneto, Beast) like Singer said
Maybe Xavier will recruit Scott Jean Ororo at the end or those will have a small role
strongly doubt it. Beast Xavier and Mystique couldn't handle 1 Mark X by themselves. The X-men will need the extra muscle of high powered Storm and Cyclops. Jean Grey is also a powerful telepath. They'll need all the strength they can get against potentially an Apoc army, Apoc and his 4 horseman. so with that said, we could really see Cyke let loose on a wave of evil mutants, all mighty Apoc and other amped up horsemen.

having apocalypse means mr sinister should turn up eventually which would be a wonderful opportunity to give cyclops some character growth
indeed. but not in this movie, other posters have made me realize sinister deserves his own film. The direction I'd like to see is Cyclops already having leadership qualities(born leader). His tactical, combat and mutant skills already have been developed by a mentor who got the lead of his gifts from Alex. He learns later that this mentor was Nathanial Essex.

Yeah we dont really know to what degree these three will appear in the film, whether they will be major characters from the start or sort of introduced at the end to set up things going forward as with Hugh/JLaw/Fassbender/MaCavoy such big names you would expect them to be the focus again.
they werent big names in FC. If the script requires the blood to be established, they will do so. No better way to show off the raw skills, abilities and characters of Jean, Ororo and Scott than in the midst of Apocalyptic chaos and world war.
