While doing press for his new film, Lazarus Effect, Evan Peters gave a few comments about his role of 'Quicksilver', which he played in "X-Men: Days Of Future Past", and will be reprising in the upcoming "X-Men: Apocalypse".
"I always wanted to play someone with a superpower, specifically an X-Man because I loved the movies so much as a kid. And I think it's really cool to play one of the fastest people in the world. It's a really cool superpower to have. So I'm pretty happy to have it."
During the interview, Peters touched on his much talked-about scene in Days Of Future Past, as well as praising the amount of work that went into the sequence. "It was awesome. It was a lot of technical work. But it was really fun to do and in the end I was really blown away by the end result. It was like, "Is that me?" It was so weird and very, very cool. I think the directing and the editing and the special effects guys are just mind-blowing in that movie, and I owe a lot of it to them. I did very little. They were the real orchestrators and I thought it was very cool. And I hope in the next one I get to do some cool stuff as well."
Peters was also asked on his thoughts about Quicksilver's upcoming appearance in "Age of Ultron", played by former "Kick-Ass" castmate Aaron Taylor-Johnson. "I can't wait to see that movie! I'm a big fan of those movies and a big fan of Aaron's so I'm excited to see it!"
