Bryan Singer Says X-MEN: APOCALYPSE is The "True Birth Of The X-Men"
A new piece of concept art was revealed by Entertainment Weekly for Bryan Singer's highly anticipated film X-Men: Apocalypse. It came with a brief statement from the director, who said:
"This is kind of a conclusion of six X-Men films, yet a potential rebirth of younger, newer characters. This is the true birth of the X-Men. This is how it happens."
It sounds to me like this next film is going to be the beginning of a whole new slew of X-Men films that will feature the new cast that we'll be introduced to in Apocalypse. I guess this is the film that will take the X-Men movie franchise to a whole other level.
The concept art you see above features a scene of someone disturbing the regeneration tomb of the title villain.
