X-Men: Apocalypse Final Trailer - 10 Major Plots Hints

5. And Quicksilver Saves The Mutants

X-Men Apocalypse Jean Grey

How will the mutants survive when they're trapped inside a mansion that's rapidly burning?

Enter Quicksilver.

Although having a bigger role in the film, one of his key scenes is going to be this one, which sees him racing into and the around the mansion in order to save all of the mutants from the fire.

It's an effective use of the character and his abilities, meaning they can burn the building down and have high-stakes without the need to actually kill anyone at this stage, and it also introduces him far more to the X-Men as a whole, setting up his place in the team for the remainder of at least this movie.
