A banner of Bryan Singer's upcoming Marvel Comics film "X-Men: Apocalypse" at the Comic-Con in Brazil featured Archangel, in his full-spread, magnificent wings.
Universo X-Men tweeted a photo of Archangel's banner, which had a tinge of brown hue. Also, Archangel in the banner was parallel to the superhero's concept art that was released back in April. While the flying mutant's full-spread wings in the banner painted a difference from the said concept art, the banner did not reveal how he looked in front view.
Ben Hardy will play Archangel in Singer's "X-Men: Apocalypse." Archangel is set to be one of Apocalypse's Four Horsemen in the film, along with the weather-controller Storm, psychic-katana wielder Psylocke, and metal-controller Magneto. While it is yet to be known as to how Archangel will appear in the film, it is implied that his role in the film will be a big one, as per Cinema Blend.
In other news, the "X-Men: Apocalypse" trailer will be rated PG and is set to have a running time of two minutes and twenty four seconds, according to Alberta Film Ratings. Surprisingly, it deviated from the PG-13 rating trend of "X-Men: First Class" and "X-Men: Days of Future Past." The first "X-Men: Apocalypse trailer will hit theaters along with J.J. Abrams' "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens," which premieres on Dec. 18.
Archangel and the other mutants are set be seen in Singer's upcoming "X-Men: Apocalypse," which centers on the rise of En Sabah Nur, also known as Apocalypse, as he recruits his powerful Horsemen to help him destroy humanity. Professor X must lead a team of young mutants to stop their archenemy from achieving his plan of massive destruction.
Aside from Hardy, "X-Men: Apocalypse" also stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Nicholas Hoult, Evan Peters, Lucas Till, Lana Condor, Alexandra Shipp, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Olivia Munn, Rose Byrne, Josh Helman, and Oscar Isaac as Apocalypse, among others.
