X-MEN: APOCALYPSE - Bryan Singer Teaches 'Jean Grey' Archery & Shakes Up Some Mutants

Will Sophie Turner's Jean Grey be utilizing a bow and arrow in X-Men: Apocalypse? One of Bryan Singer's latest Instagram posts from the set of the movie certainly suggests as much, while the other gives us a look at a "stop motion base" in action. More past the jump...

It looks like Sophie Turner's Jean Grey won't only have her telepathic mutant powers to get her out of a tight spot in X-Men: Apocalypse, as director Bryan Singer appears to be demonstrating his archery skills to the young actress in the vid below. Of course, they could just be having a bit of fun between takes, but if there's a bow and arrow on set you can bet someone will be firing it off in the movie.

The second video features a motion base contraption designed to shake things up a bit. We don't know who's inside obviously, but there are quite a few mutant characters that could cause a room to do its best San Andreas impersonation.

Awesome! Happy with everything I've seen so far.

Hope we get something like the telepathic astral battle scene that was intended for First Class, inception style.

It's funny because Singer is actually holding the bow correctly compared to Jennifer Lawrence.

Everyone that uses a bow and arrow is from Hunger Games.

Robin Hood = Hunger Games
Green Arrow = Hunger Games
Rambo = Hunger Games
Legolas = Hunger Games

Wonder if she'll have a yondu moment, hopefully with more arrows

Has anyone considered that this may be a training sequence in the movie? Like maybe this is a scene where Charles is trying to get Jean to strengthen her powers by making her stop the arrow in mid air before it hits its intended target.
smgmayhem
smgmayhem - 6/17/2015, 2:48 PM
Or even make her direct where the arrow will go with her mind

@DrKinsolving
i only watched part 2 of HG. I was disappointed because once the movie really started to get interesting it ... ended. I didn't pick up HG part 3 after that.

@DrKinsolving I was thinking the same thing. It's definitely gotta be connected to that other scene somehow.
