Announced last week to be playing the 1980s iteration of Halle Berry's Storm in X-Men: Apocalypse, Alexandra Shipp took to Instagram last night to reveal how she's currently preparing for the role. "You might be wondering what someone would do when they're sick on a Saturday night...", she says in the video before falling into a pile of comics and yelling, "homework!" In addition to some old X-Men comics, there are some issues of the recent "Storm" solo series by writer Greg Pak in Shipp's collection. Thanks to a heads up via Vixen Varsity, check out the quick vid below, along with cool fan art (by BossLogic) featuring Alexandra Ship as Storm further down. What do you think?

 

Girl, dedicated. #storm

just looked her up and she is 23 years old, so I don't feel bad saying how hot she is...she looked younger so I felt weird thinking she was hot. can't wait for this X-men movie, The X-men movies are always like gambling as they are either really good or really bad

SO MUCH NERD RAGE FILLED MY SOUL WHEN SHE DID THAT! Then my better senses came to me & it was replaced by jealousy and envy, not being those comics she was rubbing her body onto. All is well.

EH MAYBE STRIKES AGAIN!!!

Del Toro said a year ago that his line up would have John, Zatanna, Swamp Thing, Deadman, Spectre, and Etrigan.

beautiful girl; but Storm is a 6 foot, darkskinned African Goddess type, the contrast of white hair and jet black skin, the accent, the regal atmosphere would set the mold for what Storm is meant to be.

Screw you Singer. Can't wait until you're out of the X franchise.

@FordEl
that Aaliyah "biopic" travesty...ugh. I place blame squarely between the firm, manly shoulders of "co-producer" Wendell Williams and her/his lack of...all things beginning with the words "Action" & ending with "Cut".
