X-Men: Apocalypse Trailer
December 11th, 2015The first trailer for Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Apocalypse is here, and it’s bursting with mutants. As in the comics, the titular villain is described as the world’s first mutant. Apocalypse became immortal and invincible by absorbing the powers of his fellow mutants. For some reason, he lies dormant for thousands of years, but upon waking up he brainwashes other mutants to help him exterminate mankind and rule the world.
I think the look they chose for Apocalypse is awful, and Sophie Turner’s acting in the trailer’s opening sequence will give you flashbacks of January Jones’ vapid Emma Frost. But overall it looks interesting. If you’re going to play spot the horsemen, just look for the ones who don’t fit in 1983, when the movie’s events are supposed to take place.
