Mystique
The last time we saw Mystique, she was pulling Wolverine out of the Potomac river, thus hinting that she may have a role in the Weapon X program. Or was it someone else, some other shape shifter impersonating Stryker?
Mystique had quite a big role in the new X-Men trilogy, being a main character beside Magneto and Professor X. This won’t change in X-Men: Apocalypse, since she will be the one to lead the team against the big baddie.
In First Class, in the end, she joins the Hellfire Club, under Magneto’s rule. In Days of Future Past she realizes that Magneto’s way isn’t the best one – though she doesn’t join the X-Men just yet. Next year she will become the leader of the team. And we can speculate that 2016 will be the last year for her to appear in the Mutant Cinematic Universe (there is no word that she has extended her contract for more movies).
Mystique was portrayed in the original trilogy by Rebecca Romijn, while Jennifer Lawrence took the reins beginning with the First Class. What we cannot understand with the newer version is why Mystique appears mainly in human form, even if she has become Mutant and Proud. Will this issue have a resolve in X-Men: Apocalypse?
