You might have figured this movie had its fill of mutants by now, but Bryan Singer has just announced the latest addition to the cast of X-Men: Apocalypse. Newcomer Lana Condor will play Chinese-American plasmoid blasting teenager, Jubilee. This won't be the first time this character has appeared in an X-flick, though she was never given much screen time: Katrina Florence played her in X-Men, followed by Kea Wong in X2: X-Men United and X-Men: The Last Stand. As for Condor, there is literally no information on the young actress to be found online, so we'll have to keep you updated on that.
Directed by Bryan Singer, X-Men: Apocalypse also stars Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), James McAvoy (Professor X), Michael Fassbender (Magneto), Nicholas Hoult (Beast), Alexandra Shipp (Storm), Sophie Turner (Jean Grey) Kodi Smit-Mcphee (Nightcrawler), with Tye Sheridan (Cyclops), and Oscar Isaac (Apocalypse). The movie reportedly starts shooting this summer and will hit theaters on May 27, 2016.
