Bleeding Cool caught up with Bryan Singer recently to talk about Jack the Giant Slayer, and the subject of X-Men: Days of Future Past inevitably came up. Rather than ask him the same old questions, the site instead quizzed him on whether or not the villainous Apocalypse will appear in the movie. As it turns out, it sounds like he might do just that if Singer's body language was anything to go by! Now bare in mind that this is pure speculation and the site has jumped to conclusions like this many times in the past (only to be proved wrong not too long later). However, there's a good chance they might just be on to something this time! What do you guys think? Check out the excerpt below and be sure to sound off with your thoughts on this in the usual place.
On hearing the name Apocalypse, Singer’s face changed immediately but there was no point being timid. Might as well plough ahead with the question. Would he even consider using Apocalypse in the movies? How about in Days of Future Past?
His nervous answer:
I can’t tell you…
That was most interesting. So I leapt forward and asked if realising the character of Apocalypse would require performance capture.
And now Singer looked even more nervous.
This is how it gets started, when somebody starts piecing the little bits together…
The non-verbal communication was even more compelling than what Singer was saying. If I had to bet on it, I would – we’ll be seeing Apocalypse in Days of Future Past, and he’s probably going to be a performance capture character.
