X-MEN: APOCALYPSE<\/a> director Bryan Singer<\/strong> recently had a fantastic chat with Fandango<\/a> where he confirmed that the next mainline X-MEN film will indeed take place in the 90’s.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was something Simon [Kinberg] and I discussed a long time ago, all the way back to when I first pitched the studio on First Class — that they do each movie in 10-year increments,\u201d Singer explains when asked about the \u201890s setting. \u201cIt\u2019s a nice way for the audience to kind of keep track of the timeline, and it\u2019s fun to play in these different eras. So that\u2019s a good starting point.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continues, \u201cBut we\u2019ve also introduced the tenants of time travel, which already exists in the comic book. Also I imagine \u2013 and this is the first time I\u2019ve actually answered the question this way \u2013 but another thing that\u2019s been introduced in the comics is a big alien, interstellar tenant within the X-Men universe that hasn\u2019t been explored. And to me, that might be kind of fun because I\u2019m a huge Star Wars and Star Trek fan, and exploring the X-Men universe and being able to utilize that would be exciting, visually.”<\/p>\n

Explaining the evolution of the X-Men series and including the more fantastical elements, Singer said \u201cLike Apocalypse \u2013 like some of the imagery and characters and stakes [in that movie] \u2013 it\u2019s something we haven\u2019t seen before. If I\u2019m going to be involved in a significant way, it has to be something different. Visually different and aesthetically different.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"imper5\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div>
\"imper44\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

Singer reaffirmed that “as we established in Days of Future Past and now with the formation of the X-Men \u2013 some characters in Apocalypse move towards their destinies. The characters who we knew from X-Men 1, 2 and 3. Meanwhile, some characters move in opposite directions. So it\u2019s somewhat limitless.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the success of DEADPOOL<\/a>, it’s developing sequel and new properties GAMBIT<\/a>, NEW MUTANTS<\/a>, X-FORCE<\/a> and more down the pipeline, the obvious question is when we’ll see the eventual crossover that is surely being planned.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce it\u2019s ready in the right way, you can bring in other franchises or characters that are established, if you can do them separately. The way Deadpool was very successful at it; hopefully Gambit will be as successful. Then you bring them all together, somewhat in the way Marvel does, but in our own way.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continues, \u201cBut it has to be done right. Anytime you throw all these characters together to hit a start date, it can make a lot of money, but it can also be a clusterf*ck. To me, it has to be done with a lot of care. These things can get overwhelming, and if a character doesn\u2019t belong in a movie, don\u2019t use him. If the tone can still maintain itself, I\u2019m all for it. What I\u2019m not for is throwing a bunch of characters together and hoping it works.\u201d<\/p>\n
