‘Star Wars Force Awakens’ Oscar Isaac Talks ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ After Fans Blast Look

The Apocalypse is almost here. The X-Men: Apocalypse that is. Recently, we got a good look at the upcoming film on the cover of Entertainment Weekly. However, some fans didn’t like what they saw. Now, Oscar Isaac (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) is opening up about how they “nailed” the look of the iconic X-Men villain.

Recently, Apocalypse actor Oscar Isaac opened up to Entertainment Weekly about his love for the character:

“I grew up reading the comics and I actually collected X Factor when I was younger and that was when Apocalypse first showed up. And I was particularly freaked out with like the second coming and the end of the world, the apocalypse, so when there was a character that embodied that, and even from Sunday school, I remember the four horsemen and all that kind of imagery that’s still to this day some of the scariest imagery I can think of.”

Fans of the iconic X-Men villain have not been too happy with the way Apocalypse looks. Some have even gone so far as to compare his look to Power Ranger villain Ivan Ooze:

Despite what some fans may think, Isaac went on to explain how they created the look for the character:

“We had to do some adjustments here and there and be like, alright, maybe this is too alien. He also is someone who people would want to follow and not just be terrified of. So the balance, and then making sure that there’s some great elements from the comic but also making our own thing as well. In the comic, he generally is like 12 feet, 600 pounds.”
