X-MEN: APOCALYPSE Star Olivia Munn Shares A Video Revealing Her Badass Sword Skills As Psylocke

X-Men: Apocalypse star Olivia Munn only got the one chance to play Psylocke in the X-Men Universe, but if this new video shared by the actress is any indication, she hasn't forgotten how to use that sword!

When Olivia Munn signed on to star as Psylocke in X-Men: Apocalypse, it was a great example of dream casting. Unfortunately, the actress wasn't given a huge amount to do as the mutant, though she definitely looked the part and was a badass addition to Apocalypse's Four Horsemen (certainly more than Archangel). 

Recently, Munn took to Twitter to reveal that she had come across Psylocke's sword and, as you can see, the actress still has the skills she learned to play the hero back in 2016. 

...well, until she inadvertently hits the wall behind her! 

Munn was forced to back out of Dark Phoenix's due to scheduling conflicts caused by her role in Shane Black's The Predator. The actress didn't have a great time on X-Men: Apocalypse, however, as she's previously shared some insight into director Bryan Singer's erratic behaviour on the set of the movie. During production, he would frequently disappear, leaving the cast in the lurch. 

Another superhero role is probably in Munn's future at some point, though it remains to be seen whether she gets to suit up as Psylocke again. Check out the video of her in action below:

“Unfortunately, the actress wasn't given a huge amount to do as the mutant....”

Just like everyone not named Wolverine, Mystique, Magneto, Professor Xavier, and Jean Grey.

Apocalypse had some cool looking powers at the start, like cutting peoples heads off with this sand move and turning guns to sand.

Moves that he doesn't even use against the X-Men.

I saw this on her IG awhile ago. I love Munn. It’s amazing that she’s a big star now after her start on AOTS. But I loved her back then too. I’m happy for her.

I'll never get how can you cast someone as talented and that looks so much like the character as Olivia Munn and waste her in a shitty movie with poor characterization and 3-4 lines of dialogue.

@MosquitoFarmer - Oh for God's sake! This comicbookmovies, not Pornhub! Put your hormones back in the box.

I hope Olivia gets cast in a Marvel Studios movie. She deserved so much better than what she got in Apocalypse.

@WarThor - Get your mind out of the gutter, bro. I'm talking about the WWF (or WWE, if you must.)

@WarThor - She definitely deserves better than what she got in "Iron Man 2".
