Most people know about the Bryan Singer controversy by now. But things have cleared up recently. After the overwhelming success of 'X-Men: Days of Future Past', FOX has decided to officially bring back Bryan Singer to direct the sequel, 'X-Men: Apocalypse'. The report also mentioned this about the movie.
"Apocalypse takes place a decade after Days of Future Past and is a seamless next step in the story. The altering of time has unleashed a new and uniquely powerful enemy. Charles (James McAvoy), Erik/Magneto (Michael Fassbender), Raven/Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Hank/Beast (Nicholas Hoult) are joined by young Cyclops, Storm, Jean and others as the X-Men must fight their most formidable foe yet – an ancient unrelenting force determined to cause an apocalypse unlike any in human history."
'X-Men: Apocalypse' is set to come out May 27th, 2016.
