OFFICIAL: Meet the New X-MEN: APOCALYPSE Cast Members For 'Storm', 'Jean Grey' And Cyclops'
Several actors & actress have made the shortlists for young Jean Grey, Scott Summers and Storm, but X-Men: Apocalypse director Bryan Singer has settled on three! Find out who they are after the jump!
For the past few months, several names have been thrown in the mix for the roles of Ororo Munroe aka Storm, Jean Grey, and Scott Summers aka Cyclops, as the younger iterations of the mutants will be appearing in Bryan Singer's X-Men: Apocalypse. While those shortlists have shortened this past month, the director has just taken to his Twitter account to announce that actors Alexandra Shipp (Storm), Sophie Turner (Jean), and Tye Sheridan (Cyclops) have officially joined the ensemble cast. Shipp is probably best known for portraying the late songstress Aaliyah in a Lifetime biopic, while English actress Sophie Turner is known for her role on HBO's Game of Thrones, and the relatively unkown Tye Sheridan has been praised for his role in 2012's Mud. Anyhow, the trio join a mutant roster made up of Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Nicholas Hoult, and Oscar Isaac, while X-Men: Apocalypse is set for release on May 27, 2016.
