Latest X-MEN: APOCALYPSE photo shows Ben Hardy’s Angel fighting against…

X-MEN: APOCALYPSE director Bryan Singer instagrammed a new photo from the film, which reveals that Blob will appear during the 1982 East Berlin mutant fight club scene featuring Ben Hardy’s Angel and Kodi Smit-McPhee’s Nightcrawler. Judging by the pic, Fred J. Dukes isn’t in the best of shape (literally and figuratively), with slashes and cuts covering his “seemingly” lifeless body.

Last August, it was revealed that Blob would make his on-screen appearance portrayed by “a French-Canadian dude, 540 lbs (one solid big fat guy).”

Kevin Durand previously played the role in 2009’s X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE.

Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshiped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto, to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign.
