What Do You Want From FOX Before X-MEN: APOCALYPSE?

So DOFP has been in theaters and has gotten rave reviews from fans. The post-credits scene (SPOILER) shows the fans a glimpse of Apocalypse and the Four Horsemen. This is a logical step to take in the X-Men franchise. However, that film isn't set to be out for two years. Connsidering X-Men isn't thought of on the same scale as The Avengers, even thjough they're fixing that, a lot of people feel like two years is a long time to wati for the next X-Men movie. So my question to you is, out of all the films Fox had in development that deal with the current X-Men universe which one would you like you see? Is there a film with a character you think they should make before Apocalypse comes out to whet our appetites? What mutantsa could hold a solo film? What concept deserves a movie? What would you most like to see on the silver screen from the X-Men universe?

Personally there was talks about a solo Mystique film with Jennifer Lawrence. I was against it completely before I saw DOFP and Jennifer Lawrence really blew me away in her role as the anti-hero. Now I would gladly give up my ticket money to see that film. Also, similar to Deadpool, the X-Force film hasn't come together at all for as long as they've been talking about it. We likely may not get a X-Force film and if the DP film every happens Singer will most likely ignore the Origins version and get a new actor to play the Merc with a Mouth. The Magneto Origins film already got tied in with First Class but Magneto has a lot of stories to be told and similar to Jennifer Lawrence they should use Fassbender while he's a hot commodity and Ian McKellen while he's still alive. So some spin-off Erik and Charles films couldn't hurt the franchise especially since Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are older actors (just sayin').

Double hell no to a Mystique solo film. Jennifer Lawrence has done a horrid job portraying the character, and I wouldn't want her to do a 2 hour solo film.

You need to spell-check your stuff before you post it.

Fox just needs to make an X-Force, Deadpool, and Cable set of films.

@SniktBub Four men on horses were seen directly behind Apocalypse. I didn't see it at first either until I re-watched the movie.

Nothing really. I find it's best not to want things.

How the hell are they going to write a script, cast a movie, find a crew, film a movie, and put it through post production before 2016 at this moment right now? The entire premise of this article is dumb, let alone the stuff inside of it.

what's this site's obsession with dazzler? she is quite possibly the lamest character Marvel ever created. Even Squirrel girl is better than her, and she's a frickin' squirrel!

Post-Apocalypse I'd like to see the promised Gambit solo featuring Tatum. I'd also kill for a Cyclops origin film, one that featured Jean as a love interest and Havok as a cousin/uncle and a mentor. That'd be awesome.

Maybe they have to go back further in time (1800's, maybe something with Nathaniel Essex) this time. Then finally we can get a clean slate to work with.

Deadpool and Cable aren't even franchises

Cable is the leader of X-Force

Deadpool is the clown prince of X-Force

Wade Wilson is probably gonna be the villain of that movie

X men apocalypse is going to be shit hard y'all just wait, but they should add a small future character in there like my dog Cable. And a nothing thing I have to get off my chest is why is it so peaceful in x men days of future past future segment if apocalypse is coming in the 80s. Greatest movie though still.

@GuardianDevil - I'd like to watch Cyclops Origin Film where Scott and Alex Summer were little and to see what they were like in their teenagers. Scott first met Jean Grey would be good to watch. However Alex Summer is Havok aka Scott (Cyclops)'s real brother not as his "cousin, uncle and mentor".

I have to agree with Pasto - about not to make a Mystique Film. She is already in two main X-Men Films and does not needs to be in her own film. They already has Mystique's storyline from her childhood to her with Magento.

I dont really like Deadpool to be honest, I do not know why but he was in X-Men Origin: Wolverine. He was dead at the last of that film so I dont know how exact they gonna to do that unless someone magically "recreated" him back to alive.

The films I think they should make before 2016, depending on how they are going to do this and have enough time to do it, is either X-Men Origin: Storm or X-Men Origin: Angel. I know both of their history especially Storm but I would like to watch more about Angel. His childhood and how he lost his wing which made him turn to ArchAngel.

Four horseman should be, imo; chamber, sunfire, caliban, and abyss. I know we are getting young jean, cyclops, storm, gambit, and possible nightcrawler. The assumption is dazzler will join, I am unsure I want to see her. I really want to see cannonball. I know he is a new mutant but fox hasn't followed the comics. And if bishop is as old as he is in dofp, than why can't we get a young bishop?

Tom hanks for sinister. Let it sink in, he can do it and people would be in awe. I read an article here that he would love to be in a super hero film but knows he is not an ideal candidate due to age. Fox get tom hanks for sinister.

X force film set in future. Cable, Domino, X23, Hellion, Anole, Pixie, Gentle, Rockslide, Blindfold, Mercury and a personal favorite Prodigy. Have them trying to defeat Apocalypse but realize they must go back and stop him from ever waking up. Cable gets sent back at end of film, which awakens Apocalypse in the 80s.
