Sophie Turner: “Feasting my eyes upon that [X-MEN] script was insane.”

“Feasting my eyes upon that script was insane,” says Jean Grey actress, Sophie Turner when asked by Spinoff Online about her creative interests in X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. “I just think the fact that it’s such an iconic character and so well loved in the comics and stuff that it’s very exciting to be able to take it on. Famke Janssen’s portrayed Jean so well, so beautifully, and it’s nice to kind of – although I’m “young her,” it’s nice to have my own take on it as well and interpret this character, this action superhero the way that I kind of want to. Oh, my God. It’s so exciting!”

Turner says she’s “done a bit of research,” checking out “every X-Men movie that’s ever been release” and watching “TV X-Men stuff.”

Apocalypse comes to theaters on May 27, 2016.
