Olivia Munn Joins The X-Men: Apocalypse Cast, Yay!
The cast for the next instalment of the franchise is shaping up to be quite the star studded affair...
Olivia Munn has been announced as the latest actress to join the cast of X-Men: Apocalypse, and we're just a little bit excited.
The actress will play Betsy Braddock, aka mutant Psylocke, alongside X-Men regulars Jennifer Lawrence, James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender.
Her character possesses telekinetic and telepathic powers, and also looks totally kick ass in the Marvel Comics.
Not sure where you recognise her from? Olivia played Sloan Sabbath in The Newsroom, starred as reporter Chess Roberts in Iron Man 2 and more recently played Georgina in Mortdecai.
Clearly thrilled with her new gig, the actress tweeted a whole load of emojis after director Brian Singer broke the news:
