Evan Peters recently spoke with MTV about his role as Quicksilver in X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. After the smashing success of his character’s sequence in DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, Peters says director Bryan Singer and crew are working on something “bigger and better” for next year’s film.
“Well, yeah, it’s always difficult to try to top something like that,” he said. “The special effects guys, man, they absolutely nailed that and did a fantastic job on it. This year we’re working on something that’s bigger and better, keeping the same elements that worked, then adding a few new ones. I’m really excited to see it all cut together, and I’m excited for people to see it, too. I think it’s going to be a really fun sequence in what is going to be a massive X-Men movie. The scope of it — with the end of the world and Apocalypse coming — is going to be a very large, epic ’X-Men’ film.”
As shown by the photo above, we know that Peters will have a scene with “Mystique” actress Jennifer Lawrence on board the X-Jet. What was it like working with the Oscar-winning actress and the rest of the cast?
“She’s great,” he said. “All the cast is great. Everybody on set is just so nice, and so friendly and welcoming. We’re all this big family that’s stuck on this ginormous ship that is sailing slowly along. So I think everybody is incredibly nice, I’ll tell you that much.”
Filming on “Apocalypse” continues through the end of August in Montreal for a May 27, 2016 theatrical release.
