Check Out Kia Motors' X-MEN: APOCALYPSE Commercial For The Australian Open

There doesn't appear to be any new footage (maybe one or two brief shots?), but we do get a bit of new dialogue from James McAvoy's Charles Xavier in this commercial promoting Kia's X-Car, and Rafael Nadal's 2016 Australian Open campaign. Check it out after the jump...

Who will be the next Kia X-Car!


Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshiped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.


X-Men: Apocalypse is once again directed by Bryan Singer, and is set to open in theaters on May 27, 2016.

Looks like the only good thing that will come out of the Fox/Marvel relationship is Deadpool.

True... well, also X-Men, X2, X-Men: First Class, The Wolverine, Days Of Future Past, and Apocalypse from the looks of it. But yeah [frick] Fox!!

Also, if anyone wants to debate the merits of those films with me, they'd better do it by focusing on the things that determine a movie's quality (acting, script, FX etc) and not because a character has a slightly different haircut than they do in the comics or something.

I have to agree with @Rormachine on this. Apart from X-3, the X-Men movies aren't that bad. I mean some MCU movies weren't better... This war has zero interest. And let's be honest : the X-Men can't be add into the MCU now that they basically use the inhumans as the MCU's mutants.

I'm not saying I wouldn't like to see what Marvel can do with the X-Men some day, but while we're getting stuff on par with DOFP (which imo was the best CBM of 2014) I'm happy to see what Fox delivers.

@RorMachine

Completely agree, modern day CBM's owe a lot to the release of X-Men back in 2000.
Give credit where it is due.

"Give rights back..." statements are a laugh.. Marvel Studios aren't infallible.

Just look at Thor, Thor 2, IM2 and some others.. decent films but not near as good as some of the Fox productions you have listed above IMO.

Fanboys try to prop up trivial points (such as black Xmen costumes) as deal breakers to justify their biases.

It's not a very good commercial. The editing isn't on point.

I don't want the X-Men at Marvel Studios, there's really no place for them in the MCU. Fox just needs to deliver. First Class was a seriously enjoyable movie, DoFP imo less so but still quite solid. Apocalypse looks okay so far, nothing too exciting for me personally tbh. Let's see what it brings to the table.

The most interesting project by far for me right now is Deadpool, and Boone's New Mutants sounds promising.

You wont last long. Something is about this film will break your moral fibre, your will to live and then you will be back to normal.

My favorite X-Men movie is still X2.

That was lame. The commercial was all over the place. I'm still hyped for the actual film, though. Fox is doing a great job with their X-MEN films.
