Bryan Singer's Latest X-MEN: APOCALYPSE Tease Is His Most Intriguing And Mysterious Yet

Director Bryan Singer has once again returned to Instagram to share a behind the scenes photo from the set of X-Men: Apocalypse. This one features a young girl flanked by bow and arrow wielding soldiers, along with the caption "The past catches up". What could it mean? Check it out...

I'm not sure about you guys, but I have absolutely no clue what's going on here. The fact that Bryan Singer would post it along with that caption indicates that it has some sort of link to a previous movie or character's past though, so it looks like we're going to have to wait and see how it factors into X-Men: Apocalypse. That recent photo of a bald James McAvoy was easier to figure out!

As well as returning cast members Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, and Ian McKellen, 
X-Men: Apocalypse will also introduce Alexandra Shipp, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Lana Condor, Oscar Isaac, Ben Hardy, Olivia Munn, and a number of others. The movie is set to be released on May 27th, 2016. Do you have any theories on what this means?

 

The past catches up. #Xmen #XMenApocalypse

Something with Magneto. They're in the woods to avoid metal and using bows instead of guns to avoid metal. Maybe that little girl is the Scarlet Witch.

They remind me of Nazis from Hellboy 1.

If you zoom in close enough, the guards look like regular cops. Light blue shirts, black ties, dress pants. The hats are similar to
Some police hats.

I have no idea what this means.

Maybe they're going to execute that mutant kid? Apocalypse shuts down all tech maybe?

Yep. Gotta be Magneto related.

Bows and arrows, that's quite clever actually.

Seriously, they look like the Nazis in terms of designs from the beginning of Hellboy 1.

Minus Kroenen's look.

None of you have seen Apocalypto? Hmm...

That kid's gonna run for his life, and the past (arrows) will catch up.

Singer made Apt Pupil, if there are two things he knows it's Nazi uniforms and underage boy shower scenes. These aren't Nazi's.

If I had to guess this has something to do with Magneto?

Bows and arrows wouldn't make since with Mags unless that arrows don't have metal tips.
