Bryan Singer Introduces The New 'Nightcrawler' For X-MEN: APOCALYPSE!

UPDATE: Looks like Singer decided to pull a fast one and remove Kodi Smit-McPhee's costume debut of Nightcrawler from his Instagram account. Luckily the folks over at CBM have the animation as well as a new picture. (H/T: Cameron)

There's no telling what the future will hold for the current production of director Bryan Singer's latest, X-Men: Apocalypse. However, the forthcoming battle will be the greatest game changer yet with actor Oscar Isaac in the role of title villain, and with a new war at hand, our heroes will need all the power they can get. No doubt that actor Kodi Smit-McPhee will be joining as the character Nightcrawler, in its second iteration following Tony award-winning actor Alan Cumming's role as the bright-eyed indigo-colored mutant teleporter in the 2003 film, X2. Alas, Singer has shared an Instagram video of Smit-McPhee in costume, which you can check out below.

First day on set! Here is @kodismitmcpheeofficial as #Nightcrawler. Catch him before he’s gone. #XMenApocalypse #BAMF #XMEN

Isaac and McPhee will be joined by an amalgam of new and returning characters, including newly added Olivia Munn as Psylocke, Lana Condor as Jubilee, Ben Hardy as Archangel and X-Men: First Class and X-Men: Days Of Future Past co-star Lucas Till as Havok, with more names to come. X-Men: Apocalypse releases its end of days-reign on May 27, 2016!
