'X-Men: Apocalypse' S.B. 50 Trailer!
'X-Men: Apocalypse' Trailer Has Arrived!
Since as far back as I can remember the X-Men have been a part of my comic book loving life. The animated series back in the 90's helped catapult me into this world, but the comics themselves seduced me into loving this team of extraordinarily evolved people. Probably my favorite run of books was the Age of Apocalypse series in which we see a world where Charles Xavier died before he could see his goal of uniting Mutants and Humans in peace. Also in this world, Apocalypse has taken control of the planet and rules with a vicious and evil fist. And now...now we get to see Apocalypse on the big screen for the first time and he's bringing his four horsemen with him. Today we got the first trailer of the latest X-Men film directed by Bryan Singer.

News broke recently that we'd see the younger versions of Jean Grey, Cyclops, and Storm and yesterday we found out that Nightcrawler would be joining the mix. Again its a younger version of the teleporting blue guy, as Kodi Smit-McPhee (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, ParaNorman) has been cast in the fan favorite role. X-Men: Days of Future Past saw the emergence of Quicksilver in a scene that most people call an instant classic. Will Nightcrawler get a similar treatment this time around?
'X-Men: Apocalypse' Casts Young X-Men!
We had heard recently that FOX would be recasting the roles of Storm, Jean Grey, and Cyclops for the upcoming film X-Men: Apocalypse.

Today, director, Bryan Singer tweeted out this little nugget, giving us a new set of actors...
