You might remember at the end of last summer we reported that it looked like The Blob would be in X-Men: Apocalypse (here), well it seems we were on the money…

Now director Bryan Singer has released an image of the massive mutant who seems to have just been knock out by Angel, played by Ben Hardy with the caption: “Mutant Martial Arts. Light as a feather.”

The Blob hasn’t been seen onscreen since the first Wolverine movie where he was played by Kevin Durand, no word on what his role (or who’s playing him) will be in Apocalypse, though we suspect it’s a cameo at best…

Check out the newest TV Spot below…

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 hits theaters May 27, 2016.

X-Men: Apocalypse – Official TV Spot #3 [HD] by comicbookdotcom

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
