Director Bryan Singer is returning to Montreal to
shoot X-Men: Apocalypse at Mel's Studios, the
same place he shot this year's X-Men: Days of
Future Past, where over 40 sets were built.
Principal photography won't begin until April
2015, but the sequel will open their production
office next month, with set construction slated
to begin in December. X-Men: Days of Future
Past generated over $100 million for the local
Montreal economy during their shoot last year.
Production also took place outside of Mel's
Studios, in 40 separate locations throughout the
city
While little has been confirmed about the plot of
X-Men: Apocalypse , we reported in March that
the project will be a 1980s period piece that will
serve as more of a direct sequel to X-Men: First
Class, primarily focusing on the younger
mutants from that film and X-Men: Days of
Future Past.
However, writer-producer Simon Kinberg
revealed in May that cast members from the
original X-Men trilogy, who were also featured
in X-Men: Days of Future Past, may be involved
as well.
The end credit scene in X-Men: Days of Future
Past featured a young Apocalypse, considered to
be the first mutant ever, assembling the
pyramids in Egypt with his telepathic powers.
All we know for sure about X-Men: Apocalypse
is that Bryan Singer is directing from a script by
Simon Kinberg, Dan Harris and Michael
Dougherty.
X-Men: Apocalypse comes to theaters May
27th, 2016. The film is directed by Bryan Sing
