He issued this not-so-cryptic tweet on Thursday afternoon:
#Xmen #Apocalypse 2016!
— Bryan Singer (@BryanSinger) December 5, 2013
"Apocalypse" likely refers to the world's oldest mutant, En Sabah Nur, who first appeared in the X-Men spinoff, X-Factor, back in 1986. He's considered one of the most formidable X-Men opponents.
EW confirmed Thursday that 20th Century Fox titled the film X-Men: Apocalypse and had it slated for a May 27, 2016 release date.
