Yesterday it was announced that the sequel to X-Men: Days of Future Past would indeed finally be X-Men: Apocalypse in May 2016. Well the guys over at First Showing got there hands on a next to final version of the Days of Future Past script which gives away the infamous post credit scene! This post credit scene will directly lead into 'X-Men: Apocalypse'
:: Warning Massive Spoilers ::
Ok, this confirms that Apocalypse himself will be the main villain in X-Men: Apocalypse. But Bryan Singer has sneakily made him also a spirit that can posses the body of an already existing X-Men character....Read on at your own risk....
[During] the credits bumper jumps back to the past with a young Erik Lehnsherr (Michael Fassbender) in a ramshackle house in the desert eating dinner, clearly on the run from all the authorities who want to bring him down. While using a well outside to get some water, the young Magneto sees something fall from the night sky and crash to Earth nearby. Upon inspecting the impact zone, he encounters what is described as an "alien form" who is "towering, terrifying, with a twisted metal face and dark pits for eyes." It's Apocalypse and he says, "I have crossed rivers of time to find you." Magneto asks, "Who are you?"This also confirms Bleeding Cool's report from earlier today that the First Class Cast will return for X-Men: Apocalypse. As some know this is actually diverting completely from the Age of Ayplose storyline since in that arc Magneto is actually a hero with his rag tag team of X-Men after young Xavier is killed by his future son Legion......but who cares right?
The alien responds, "I am your future." Suddenly Apocalypse merges with Magneto, who screams and blasts an insane amount of energy and shockwaves around him. This energy explosion levels everything around him, with a blast radius that goes for miles. As Magneto looks at what he's done, he has a realization of the power he now holds and a villainous grin begins to form before the film cuts to black.
Days of Future Past hits in May while Apocalypse hits May 2016
