Jennifer Lawrence reveals that X-Men ‘Apocalypse’ is her last X-Men movie.
In an interview with MTV News, Jennifer Lawrence confirmed that ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ will be her last film in the franchise.
Lawrence played blue mutant Mystique in ‘X-Men: First Class’ and ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past.’ According to reports, Mystique will play an even larger role in the plot of ‘Apocalypse’.
From Variety:
“The relationship between Beast and Mystique is a really interesting one that we didn’t have a lot of time to explore in ‘Days of Future Past’ so we’ll have an opportunity to do more of that in ‘Apocalypse,’” said screenwriter Simon Kinberg.
“Part of what’s really interesting about Mystique’s character is that she is, in some ways, the child of both Erik and Charles,” Kinberg added. “She grew up with Charles and then she sort of became a woman with Erik, so her being the cross-pollination, if you will, of those two philosophies and those two men is something we can explore in the movie, too.”
‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ will also star series regulars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Nichoulas Hoult and Rose Byrne. Neither Ian McKellen nor Patrick Stewart will be returning. But, Bryan Singer will direct.
