X:Men: Apocalypse and the Four Horsemen

With Bryan Singer's "X-Men: Apocalypse" coming to the big screen next year, Apocalypse himself, Oscar Isaac, has revealed who the four horsemen are.

Isaac told the press and fans at the San Diego Comic-Con are Angel, Storm, Psylocke, and Magneto. While the four horsemen were different in the comics, fans will see Ben Hardy, Alexandra Shipp, Olivia Munn, and Michael Fassbender on the side of the titular supervillain, as per Cinema Blend.

Angel has been previously hinted as a villain in Singer's film when his concept art was revealed in April. He is assumed to take the nickname Death, while the other three horsemen will be called Famine, War, and Pestilence.

According to Screen Rant, it was most surprising to see Storm as one of the horsemen because of her young age in Singer's film. The weather-controlling mutant has always been searching for a god, which leads her to be induced as Apocalypse's alliance.

Apocalypse's primary ability is persuasion, Isaac told Screen Rant. With this ability, the supervillain is able to convert mutants into his followers. He is also capable of resisting Professor Charles Xavier's telepathic abilities. As a cult leader, Apocalypse is in search of people who will join him destroy humanity.

"X-Men: Apocalypse" stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Hugh Jackman, Lucas Till, Nicholas Hoult, Jennifer Lawrence, Olivia Munn, Sophie Turner, Lana Condor, Alexandra Shipp, Rose Byrne, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Tye Sheridan, Evan Peters, Ben Hardy, and Oscar Isaac, among others.

Singer's "X-Men: Apocalypse" is slated to premiere in theaters on May 27, 2016.
