After the huge success of X-Men: Days Of Future Past, the mutant are returning with X-Men: Apocalypse, which may not have the actors from the original trilogy, but brings back the likes of James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence, alongside plenty of newbies, many of them playing younger versions of characters we’ve seen before.
And with Days Of Future Past resetting the timeline, it also allows for reinvented versions of characters.
Here’s the synopsis:’Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.’
Bryan Singer directs once more more, with James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Oscar Isaac, Nicholas Hoult, Rose Byrne, Olivia Munn, Evan Peters, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Alexandra Shipp, Lucas Till, Josh Helman, Lana Condor and Ben Hardy starring.
It’ll be in cinemas next May.
Jennifer Lawrence reunites with director David O. Russell (American Hustle, Silver Linings Playbook) with a new film – all about mops. Well, sort of, as it’s about the inventor of the Miracle Mop, although as the trailer shows, it’s perhaps more mob movie (with a dash of comedy) than flowery biopic.
On November 19th we’ll get to see how The Hunger Games series comes to an end with Mockingjay – Part 2. It’s certainly been quite a ride to get here, with some really good movies which have become box office titans.
In just a month and a half the wildly popular Hunger Games saga comes to an end (although there has been talk of more sequels or spin-off) with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2. Ahead of that comes a final poster, which sees Jennifer Lawrence’s Katniss in full-on action mode.
The latest trailer for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 takes a look at the Everdeen sister, paying tribute to them and the fact that Katniss says that she’s doing it all for her sis, Prim.
It seems Jennifer Lawrence must have liked working with director Francis Lawrence on The Hunger Games sequels, as
Youtube has revamped the look of their videos, although we’re presuming that wasn’t done in preparation for the release of the first full The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 Trailer. However the two have coincided, and you can take a look below.
The mutants are back next year in X-Men Apocalypse, and after adventures set in the 1960s and 1970s, it’s time for Magneto, Professor X, Raven, Beast and co. to enter the 1980s.
With American Hustle and Silver Linings Playbook, Jennifer Lawrence and director David O. Russell have had a very successful partnership, including the actress winning an Oscar for the latter. Now they’re reuniting for Joy, and the first teaser trailer has arrived.
