Big casting news for the X-Men franchise. Director Bryan Singer has announced the three young actors who will portray three of the most recognizable mutants from the series in the next chapter of the film franchise, X-Men: Apocalypse.

The roles of Cyclops, Storm, and Jean Grey will be taken over by three relatively newcomers in the movie industry. 18-year old Tye Sheridan, who earned rave reviews in Mud; Alexandra Shipp, who has extensive background in daytime TV; and the actress whose name is already a household favorite, Sophie Turner from Game of Thrones, respectively.
