Now, audiences can see a brand new adventure set in the post-Days of Future Past timeline, featuring the rise of the all-powerful mutant known as Apocalypse in the year 1983.
We play with time in Days of Future Past in a sense where there’s immutability of time – which is time kind of gathering itself after being disrupted.
Unfortunately, it’s this same pro-mutant perspective that leads a cult to discover the existence of Apocalypse, and resurrect him in 1983.
Then there’s the disruption of time, which enables us to have a lot of freedom in future films.
