Esquire<\/a> features a chat with Oscar Isaac<\/strong>, who will star as the title villain in X-MEN: APOCALYPSE<\/a>. The actor spoke briefly about what research he’s doing for the role of En Sabah Nur, an ancient mutant hellbent on creating an apocalypse unlike any in human history.<\/p>\n “You find something that makes it interesting for you,” said Isaac on connecting with his character. “With X-Men, it’s about why this woman who invented Apocalypse, [writer] Louise Simonson, she was tasked with: make a new arch-villain. She said, “OK, I’ll make the embodiment of the Second Coming with the Four Horseman and all.” That’s scary shit. So I’m curious about that. What’s the philosophical expression behind the apocalypse? What apocalypse means, which comes from the Greek for “to reveal.” To lift back the curtain.”<\/p>\n Filming gears up towards the end of April for a May 27, 2016 theatrical release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Esquire features a chat with Oscar Isaac, who will star as the title villain in…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[60,15,43],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30334","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-casting","category-crew-talk","category-x-men-apocalypse"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":false,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30334"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30334\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30334"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30334"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/x-menfilms.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"apoc\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/x-menfilms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/apoc.jpg?resize=470%2C470&ssl=1\")
