X-MEN: APOCALYPSE actress Alexandra Shipp recently answered a few tweets from fans about her upcoming role as Storm. When asked about her opinion on the film’s script, Shipp says it’s going to be “EPIC.” At this point in the pre-production phase, she says she’s “still waiting to see” what hairstyle her character will sport in the 1983 setting as she doesn’t get to decide on those particulars. “I’d be excited for ANY outcome for Storm’s hair!! Woohoo!!”

Enthusiasm is a plus!

Shipp joins pre-existing X-Men cast members, along with newcomers Sophie Turner as Jean Grey, Tye Sheriden as Scott Summers, Kodi Smit-McPhee as Nightcrawler, Olivia Munn as Psylocke, Lana Condor as Jubilee, Ben Hardy as Archangel and Oscar Isaac as the villainous En Sabah Nur.

Apocalypse reigns on May 27, 2016.
