Director Bryan Singer has revealed a first look photo of The Blob in X-Men: Apocalypse.
The image shows The Blob lying flat on his back after being beaten in a cage fight by Angel (Ben Hardy).
The caption reads: “Mutant Martial Arts. Light as a feather.”
A different take on The Blob has previously appeared in an X-Men movie. Kevin Durand (Vikings) wore facial prosthetics and a fat-suit to mask his much-leaner frame as he played the character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009).
“Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.”
X-Men: Apocalypse is set for release on May 27th, 2016.
