X-Men: Apocalypse Latest News: Producer and Director Bryan Singer already gave teasers on the announced X-Men Franchise: Apocalypse. Singer said in a statement that there whomever will survive Days of the Future Past will be more of mass destruction like facing Armageddon.

"Apocalypse will have more of the mass destruction that X-Men films, to date, have not relied upon. There's definitely now a character and a story that allow room for that kind of spectacle... We're currently breaking the story. We're almost ready to go. Dan Harris, Michael Dougherty and Simon Kinberg are in the office across the street from me, working on story stuff right now. It's great to have Dan and Michael back," Singer said.

The Hollywood Reporter said that "The series' gradual shift towards the present day as the action goes from the 1970s setting of this summer's X-Men: Days of Future Past to the 1980s, according to producer Bryan Singer."

Singer gives a glimpse of the setting of the Apocalypse and expresses hi unbelief on how times flies, "We're going to deal with the notion of ancient mutants, the fact they were born and existed thousands of years ago. But it'll be a contemporary movie, well; it'll take its place in the '80s... The '80's is a period now. It's hard for me to believe that!"

"I don't want to get too specific, but we'll introduce familiar characters in a younger time. That'll be fun to show the audience. I call these movies in-between-quels. It's a mind-f*ck sometimes in terms of where things fall in the timeline!" He added.

According to IAmRogue, the title character also means that the X-Men are getting in on the city- levelling that's popular in blockbusters these days.

Singer also said that he has notions for sequels beyond 2016, explaining, "It all stems back to when I did [the first] X-Men. You always want to know where a character's going to go, what their future's going be like. You can always sequelise. But on that film I also had actors asking 'Who am I? Where did my character come from?' So as a director you always need a backstory to give your actors. It may not be the right backstory, but it's one you can give the actor to help them understand their character. These prequels are really exciting for me because they give me a chance to explore ideas came up with more than a decade ago."

Future Past opens on May 23. Apocalypse follows up on May 26, 2016.
