Director Bryan Singer has promised before that his upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse will deliver "mass destruction" when it hits theaters in 2016... but now he's taken to showing instead of telling. Those who have been following the production of X-Men: Apocalypse know that this is far from the first image that Bryan Singer has shared of the set through his Instagram page. but it is definitely an intriguing one. Arriving with the caption "Tip toeing through ruined #Cairo #1983," the image shows us that the capitol city of Egypt is going to be getting leveled in the blockbuster.

Those of you who stuck around for the entirety of X-Men: Days of Future Past will recognize this hooded figure as Apocalypse, who was first shown during the post-credits sequence of last year's big comic book movie rearranging/building the famous Pyramids of Giza. I point this out because it's evidence that the big screen version of Apocalypse - like his comic book counterpart - has origins in ancient Egypt, firming up ties between him and the North African/Middle Eastern nation. It's possible that he unleashes destruction upon Cairo when he is reawakened in the early 1980s (and where he will be played by Oscar Isaac.

In October 2012, it was announced that Singer would direct the next movie in the series, X-men: Day of Future Past, Matthew Vaughn stayed on as a producer and screenwriter, and the film was released in May 2014.

Singer is openly bisexual having dated both men and women in the past and has said that his life experiences of growing up as a minority influenced his movies. In October 2014, it was confirmed he was expecting a child with actress Michelle Clunie. The couple's first son, Dashiell Julius William Clunie-Singer, was born on January 5, 2015. In May 2014, another lawsuit was filed by attorney Jeff Herman on behalf of an anonymous British man. Both Singer and producer Gary Goddard. (who was also named separately in the first case) were accused of sexually assaulting "John Doe No. 117."
