At the risk of tooting our own trumpets, we got Bryan Singer on the record about recasting Cyclops and Jean Grey for the 80s-set X-Men: Apocalypse way back in Spring 2014, but now some casting leads (different names from the set recently reported by The Wrap) have broken online through notorious nonsense factory Latino Review.
Usual caveats apply: unless there’s a named source, don’t treat it as fact.
X-Men: Apocalypse’s new Jean Grey could be… Sophie Turner (Game Of Thrones)
X-Men: Apocalypse’s new Jean Grey could be… Saoirse Ronan (Hanna, Byzantium)
X-Men: Apocalypse’s new Cyclops could be… Taron Egerton (Kingsman: The Secret Service)
X-Men: Apocalypse’s new Cyclops could be… Jamie Blackley (If I Stay)
X-Men: Apocalypse’s new Cyclops could be… Tye Sheridan (Mud)
X-Men: Apocalypse’s new Storm could be… Alexandra Shipp (Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B)
X-Men: Apocalypse’s new Storm could be… Zendaya Coleman (Shake It Up)
X-Men: Apocalypse is in cinemas on 27 May 2016. You can order X-Men: Days Of Future Past on Blu-ray for £15 at Amazon.co.uk and read about the comics that inspired the film with the100 All-Time Greatest Comics Bookazine.
