The forthcoming Marvel Comics film "X-Men: Apocalypse" would be longer than other "X-Men" films, according to director Bryan Singer.
In his interview with The Movie Report at the san Pedro International Film Festival on Oct. 10, Singer said that the cut of his upcoming "X-Men: Apocalypse" was a little long, as compared to its predecessors, which he usually kept below two hours.
Singer said the upcoming film was a "wrap up" of six films - "X:Men 1, 2, 3," "X-Men: First Class," "X-Men: Days of Future Past," and a homage scene at the conclusion of the film. The director added that while the film was going to be spoiled in the trailer, which would come out in six months, it was a definitely cool trailer.
According to Cinema Blend, "X-Men: Apocalypse" would serve as the conclusion of the "X-Men" franchise as a whole, in addition to being the final act of the "X-Men: First Class" trilogy. While fans may see the notable X-Men roster in Singer's upcoming film, they are yet to see an array of films in the Cinematic Universe, such as "Deadpool," "Gambit," "New Mutants," and "Wolverine 3."
Meanwhile, fans are set to see the mutants in Bryan Singer's "X-Men: Apocalypse," which centers on the rise of En Sabah Nur, also known as Apocalypse, as her recruits his powerful Horsemen to help him destroy humanity. To prevent their archenemy from fulfilling his plan of massive destruction, Professor X and Raven must lead a team of young mutants.
"X-Men: Apocalypse" also stars Ian McKellen, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Hugh Jackman, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Lucas Till, Evan Peters, Olivia Munn, Lana Condor, Sophie Turner, Alexandra Shipp, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Tye Sheridan, Ben Hardy, Rose Byrne, Josh Helman, and Oscar Isaac as Apocalypse, among others.
Singer's "X-Men: Apocalypse" is slated to premiere in theaters in the United States on May 27, 2016.
