Apocalypse X-Men Apocalypse News and Discussion - Part 2

[marvelrobbins]

There Is tons of stuff they can do before Wolverine comes to new future.Now obviously If they want to do anything with original cast that Isn't Hugh jackman they would have to
return after the new future.Of course that's a big If.

Iceman,Rogue,Kitty,and Colossus can't be used In any films set In 1980's and 1990's.Besides them those In new future are older versions of FC/DOFP/Apocalypse
characters.

They don't need to do any of this stuff just because RDJ is in Cap 3. Just make a good movie.

They'll be fine, they don't need to be reactionary.

 

[def28]

Wow. 2016 is really gonna be one for the books.

And yeah, Apocalypse is fine. Everyone will want to see that as well.

 

[marvelrobbins]

This will be like opening 3 weeks after age of Ultron.Reports say Cap 3 Is now avengers 2.5

I have faith In Bryan Singer to make good film and Michael Dougherty and Dan harris also doing work on script also gives me faith.

I stand by my thinking if any Original cast actors who aren't Hugh jackman appear In Apocalypse as Kinberg once suggested they would only appear
at end of film.However now I think they can't be a beast/Cyclops/Jean deal like at end of DOFP or WOlverine In FC.They need to be announced.OT cast
helped Apocalypse.They may even try to fool people Into thinking wolverine has bigger role In film.I still think Wolverine Is likely to be a horseman in film.

I also think it's good idea if Apocalypse is when Chaning tatum Is introduced as gambit.

 

[Smilodon]

Fox shouldn't worry about what Marvel is doing at the moment. DOFP was their Avengers moment and set them back on track with a brand new spankin' future to work with. They don't need to start throwing Hail Mary passes with their movies just because Marvel's plans for beyond Phase 2 are taking shape. They just need to keep telling their own brand of stories. Let's just get a good movie with Jean, Scott and Storm first.

 

[SuperT]

Exactly. If you spend too much time trying to react to/copy/one-up your competition you're not producing the best work - at all.

[JP]

Seriously.

 

[jed]

So Bryan Singer has announced on his instagram that casting has began for X Men:Apocalypse


So fast?


I thought they are still writing the script


Expect casting announcements by the end of the month?

 

[Smilodon]

Plus Feige and co. have been preparing this for years. Their success is inextricably linked to their patience and taking things a phase at a time. In a way, Fox pumping a film one by one like Marvel will allow them to have big DOFP/Avengers moments. That's not to say Apocalypse won't be a big film in its own right, as it is certainly shaping up to be one, but Kinberg and co. seem to have a plan in place with Deadpool and whatnot, and I hope to see it pan out just like Marvel's has.

With filming expected to begin next Spring-ish, I think right now is the perfect time to begin casting. I'm sure by the end of the year Singer will start announcing new cast members, perhaps even sooner for the returning ones like Fassy, Hugh, McAvoy, JLaw and Hoult.

 

[CyclopsSummers]

they're also not the same movie as the previous one. X1, X2 and x4/Dofp all are a great part of the franchise

DOFP is sequel of FC. People usually call it X4 but they are wrong. DOFP isnt X4.

X1-X2-X3 is a trilogy and FC-DOFP-Apocalypse is a trilogy. Dont interwind.

 

[def28]

It's like a quarter X4. I mean that's the only actual follow up anyone will ever see to X3. That timeline is toast now.

If they do another tril in the modern times or future I guess we can look at that like how Star Wars labels their trilogies, but an audience member would more then likely be a bit lost going from X3 to whatever is on the new timline. DOFP is pretty significant to both casts stories.

 

[psylockolussus]

Dofp is pretty much X4. Its only questionable because the First Class characters had more screentime though some of them shared most of their screentime with Hugh who is part of the OT. At least eleven of the Ot cast members came back, then there are flashbacks from X1to 3, the opening titles and they had a big impact in the film. For me its X4.

 

[JP]

"Akkaba" is the title the movie will be filming under. The casting call is calling for "three 18 year old actors to play 16. Their names are Ava, Dylan, and Sabrina."

Sounds like Scott, Jean, and Storm.

[JEM]

Great time for X men fans and I can't wait to hear the casting rumors .
We live in the golden age of comicsbook movies and people just want competitions. Fanboy are the worst supervilains t: .

 

[HIA]

Dylan? is that a clue for Dylan Obrien to go to the casting room?

 

[xrs13]

I have a feeling that Cyc, Jean and Storm are going to be only sought out at the end of the film.

Either that or they are having Apocalypse fight 16 year olds, which to me sounds really really bad for the fact he is the biggest villain so far. I am praying thats not the case though.

 

[JP]

If that was the case they wouldn't be casting them now. The three of them are pretty powerful. Without the blocks in her head, Jean will me a lot more powerful then she ever was in X1 or 2...

Plus, they're just three of the many characters who will be in this film.

 

[xrs13]

I know, its more that I am thinking, to me Banshee, Havok and the likes werent 16 they were 18. I am thinking of it more about 16 being quite young against the likes of Apoc, regardless of their power, I am sure it will be fine but its just a shock haha

 

[HIA]

the age thing is not an issue to me. And they wont look like 15 years old, Im sure about that, lol. It will be pretty similar to Jenn, Nich and Lucas in FC.

The key here is how Bryan uses their powers in action, if he gets really creative and ambitious, the fights will be epic

 

[xrs13]

Yesh, provided they are shown to be immensly powerful but it needs honing I will be happy. Especially Jean.

 

[JP]

They were all most likely 16.. same with Quicksilver.

 

[xrs13]

They were all most likely 16.. same with Quicksilver.

They were also not used against Shaw because he was clearly too powerful for them. Now like you said, that could be used to show that the 3 in this are way more powerful than the others and can go up against big bad and hold their own (to a point).

It's just nervous excitement for me I think haha, I am sure when I see the cast it will be fine
