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.
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), Lana Condor (Jubilee), Ben Hardy (Archangel), Sophie Turner (Jean Grey), with Tye Sheridan (Cyclops), and Oscar Isaac (Apocalypse). The movie will hit theaters on May 27, 2016.
