Set Photo: First Look At An ‘X-Men Apocalypse’ Quicksilver Effects Sequence
Most people would agreeX-Men Days of Future Pastwas a solid addition to the X-Men franchise. Even if they don’t, everyone agrees the Quicksilver scene was the highlight. The way directorBryan Singerused slow motion and camera effects to show how fast the character, played byEvan Peters, was truly memorable. Now it seems, he’s going to do it again.
On his Instagram, Singer tweeted an image of a bunch of actors on wires with the hashtag “#Quicksilver.” It seems everyone’s favorite speedster is gonna make a comeback inX-Men Apocalypse. See the X-men Apocalypse Quicksilver image and more below.

The image came from Singer’sInstagram. Here it is (you may have seen it in Superhero Bits Wednesday).
The caption is “Just another day at the office. #Quicksilver #Xmen #XmenApocalypse”
How does Quicksilver fit into this story? What’s the situation that necessitates the use of his mutant power? Is he doing this at some kind of college campus or something? Who knows, but it’s a super curious image.

Are you excited that there’s a new Quicksilver sequence? Is it possible Singer can top the last one? And how, if at all, do you think the fate of the Marvel Studios' Quicksilver played into any decisions with this character?
