Olivia Munn Demonstrates Her Impressive 'Psylocke' Sword Skills For X-MEN: APOCALYPSE

It seems Olivia Munn has "learned some new tricks" for her upcoming role as the telepathic, highly skilled mutant Betsy Braddock/Psylocke in Bryan Singer's latest X-Men movie. The actress has posted a video to her Instagram page, showing off her pretty damn awesome skills with a katana...

Olivia Munn is evidently taking her role in X-Men: Apocalypse pretty seriously anyway. The actress will play Psylocke, who in addition to her telepathic mutant abilities is also an incredibly proficient martial artist and swordswoman. Munn posted the below video to her Instagram, and as you can see she's clearly been practising hard. We still haven't seen Munn in costume (the closest was this pic of her near the set sporting purple-tinted hair), but this is a pretty cool taste of what we can expect when Psylocke gets physical in the movie.

Is that Aaron Rodgers in the background? It's definitely someone just dicking around.

For me the best thing would have been if that clown in the back through out his shoulder while messing around.

Fun Fact:

Fox has a way better track record than Marvel Studios yet ppl want the rights to revert to the weaker company.

Another fun fact:

Ben Roethlisberger is a better QB than Aaron Rodgers.
