Jennifer Lawrence as blue mutant Mystique gasps for air while being choked by Apocalypse in new X-Men trailer

'Everything they've built will fall!' Jennifer Lawrence as blue mutant Mystique gasps for air while being choked by Apocalypse in new X-Men trailer during Super Bowl ad

Jennifer Lawrence confirmed last March that this would be her last movie with the franchise.
So it's no wonder an X-Men: Apocalypse trailer released during a Super Bowl commercial on Sunday hinted at that outcome.
The 25-year-old actress appeared on the teaser in her famous Mystique blue paint while being choked by the film's all-powerful enemy.

Her sexiest costume: Jennifer Lawrence sizzles in blue body paint as Hugh Jackman looks fierce in new X-Men: Days Of Future Past posters

She can shape shift into anything she wants.
On Friday Jennifer Lawrence revealed her fabulous curves as mutant Mystique alongside hunky Hugh jackman as Wolverine in new posters that highlight the key cast for the upcoming film X-Men: Days Of Future Past.

In her mutant form, Mystique is covered in scaly blue skin and little else, meaning much of Jennifer's body is on display in the movie and the posters.
The 23-year-old is reprising her role from the previous instalment, X-Men: First Class, which rebooted the franchise and follows the mutants when they were young.
She took over from the equally shapely Rebecca Romijn, who played the part in the first three movies, which kicked off in 2000.

In the upcoming movie, the X-Men send Wolverine, played by 45-year-old Hugh, to the past in a desperate effort to change history and prevent an event that dooms humans and mutants.
This gives director Bryan Singer the opportunity to reunite the cast from the original trilogy, including 73-year-old Patrick Stewart, as Professor Charles Xavier, and Ian McKellen, 74, as Magneto, with their younger selves from X-Men: First Class, James McAvoy, 34, and Michael Fassbender, 37.
It also introduces a new baddie - Peter Dinklage as military scientist Bolivar Trask whose company has created a range of robots called Sentinels to hunt and destroy mutants.

'This is a story about a bad future, not a bad situation with an individual, but a bad future and how do you go back and change that,' Bryan Singer told Collider earlier this year.
The movie was filmed in Montreal, Canada last year.

Where are all the movies starring female superheroes?

Where are all the movies starring female superheroes?

Friday marks the release of “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” and with it is likely to come griping along the lines of, “What? Another movie starring a male superhero?” As Time magazine asked, “Where are all the (good) female superhero movies?”
It’s a fair point. And while we were given the WB network’s “Birds of Prey” in 2002, and some enlightened exec greenlit Pam Anderson’s awful “Barb Wire” in 1996, adaptations of comic books with female leads have been relatively rare.
So when are those superheroine movies going to start flooding the multiplex? Don’t hold your breath. It may be a couple years yet — if at all.
The easiest explanation for the lack of female-driven films is sexism. Maybe. But “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent,” which both feature a female superhero of sorts, still got made.
Modal Trigger
Pamela Anderson in “Barb Wire.”
Blame the source material. Female superhero titles haven’t historically sold well in the comic-book world for many reasons, including the fact that readership is overwhelmingly male. In February of this year, not one superheroine title cracked the top 10.
“Spider-Man” and “Batman” are far more popular than any super-gal in the print world.
So even if some open-minded studio wanted to make a movie with a female lead, who would they choose?
“Wonder Woman” seems like an obvious choice. And Warner Bros., which controls the DC Comics properties, has been trying to get a film off the ground for years, even commissioning a 2011 TV pilot starring Adrianne Palicki. But NBC declined to pick it up.
But there may be a ray of hope in the form of Warner Bros.’ “Man of Steel” sequel, due in 2016. In addition to Henry Cavill as Superman, it will feature not only Ben Affleck as Batman but Israeli actress Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. And there’s sure to be at least talk about Gadot, a “Fast and Furious” veteran, moving on to a stand-alone adventure.
Meanwhile, Marvel Studios — makers of “Iron Man” and “The Avengers” — has a different problem. It’s firmly established its universe, have produced hit after hit and seems most well-positioned to produce a female-driven movie. But the studio only controls a portion of the Marvel Comics characters because the publisher sold off the rights to the X-Men, Spider-Man and other characters to rival studios back in the 1990s.
Marvel’s most high-profile female character is now Black Widow (Scarlett Johannson). Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has said giving Widow her own film is a distinct possibility and that he has “various outlines and ideas” of where to take her story. Other than that, the roster of big-name ladies is thin. Remake “Elektra,” which bombed in 2005?
So why not just invent a new superhero? No chance. So much of what drives Hollywood in 2014 is what’s called “pre-awareness” — the idea that audiences are already familiar with characters or concepts, creating easy anticipation and saving the studio marketing dollars. (This is why we get crap like “The A-Team.”)
In the end, the next female-driven superhero franchise will likely arrive on the small screen. Last year, Marvel and Netflix teamed to produce five TV series, including “Jessica Jones,” about a retired super-hero-turned-private eye. Men and women alike should look for it in 2015.
