The film was announced by Bryan Singer in December 2013 via Twitter, before Days of Future Past was released to theaters. In the same month, Simon Kinberg, Dan Harris, and Michael Dougherty were revealed by Singer to be attached to work on the film's story. According to Singer, the film would focus on the origin of the mutants, and features the younger versions of Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Storm. Singer also said that he was considering Gambit and a younger version of Nightcrawler to appear. According to Kinberg, it would take place in 1983, and completes a trilogy that began with 2011's X-Men: First Class. In September 2014, 20th Century Fox officially announced that Singer would direct the film. Singer has called the film "kind of a conclusion of six X-Men films, yet a potential rebirth of younger, newer characters" and the "true birth of the X-Men".

This film could have completed the prequel trilogy in an epic way and, in fact, that’s exactly what it does. Apocalypse had a claim to a more serious embodiment as a villain and could compete with Thanos, but not fate. Visually beautiful, Mercury’s run – Actor on the level. I recommend getting acquainted.

Well, none at all! Everything is somehow chaotic and crumpled, all events happen too quickly, not a single character is revealed or developed. In fact, all the preparations and conversations of the characters are just transitions between not the best action scenes.
