Writer/director Bryan Singer and his "X-Men: Days Of Future Past" crew will reportedly return to Montreal April 2015 to shoot "X-Men: Apocalypse", the next film in the movie franchise based on the Marvel Comics mutant superhero characters:
Set construction starts December 2014, using the 27-acre studio facility Mel's Cité du Cinema. When "Days Of Future Past" filmed there, up to forty sets were constructed including an 'Exterior Monastery' covering 36,500-square-foot in Mel's Studio H.
'Apocalypse' is an ancient mutant debuting in Marvel Comics "X-Factor" #5 (May 1986), created by writer Louise Simonson and "Thor" illustrator Walt Simonson.
'Apocalypse' has appeared in several "X-Men" comic book spin-offs, limited series, Marvel merchandise, animation, toys, trading cards and games.
Born 5,000 years ago in 'Akkaba', the character subsequently appeared throughout history, encouraging civilizations to worship him as a god, manipulating them into fighting wars of conquest.
At some point, Apocalypse discovers advanced alien technology, transforming and enhancing himself, entering states of suspended animation.
