Following a host of teasers over the past few days from both Bryan Singer and 20th Century Fox, as promised the first trailer for the highly anticipated X-Men: Apocalypse has finally dropped online. Check it out below...
The trailer - which will be attached to screenings of Star Wars: The Force Awakens from next week - puts the spotlight on Oscar Isaac's titular villain Apocalypse, who already comes across as a formidable villain. The action-packed 2 and a half minutes has plenty of great looking shots, from Cyclops unleashing the full power of his optic beams to Apocalypse quickly growing bigger. But perhaps the major takeaway here is that James McAvoy's Professor X has FINALLY had a haircut. It's about damn time!
Directed by Singer and starring James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Oscar Isaac, Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult, X-Men: Apocalypse will be released in UK cinemas on May 19, 2016 before making its way to US theatres on May 27, 2016.
