X-Men: Apocalypse: Everything We Already Know

9. Apocalypse's Four Horsemen Are Magneto, Storm, Psylocke & Angel

Apocalypse isn't the only foe in the new movie; there's also his Four Horsemen, the iconic henchmen who help do his bidding. It was revealed at Comic-Con earlier this year that the roles of Famine, War, Pestilence and Death would be assumed by (in a currently unknown order) Storm (Alexandra Shipp), Psylocke (Olivia Munn), Angel (Ben Hardy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender). How does Apocalypse bring someone as strong-willed as Magneto onto his side, you ask? His powers of persuasion are so immense that even the most potent mutants cannot resist it, and so the supervillain employs these four high-powered mutants to aid his quest to destroy the world. Considering that Magneto has reportedly settled down with a family at the start of the film, don't be surprised if his wife or child gets killed and this turns him to the dark side. It's entirely possible that the Horsemen line-up could change throughout the film considering how much it switched up in the comics, and it goes without saying that most if not all of them will snap out of it before the movie's end, but it's one hell of a line-up, that's for sure.
