    [Movies] Olivia Munn knows how to swing a sword

    Stephen SchleicherBy Stephen SchleicherJune 29, 20151 Comment2 Mins Read

    X-Men Apocalypse is currently filming in Montreal, and though we will see a number of characters returning, the film will introduce us to Psylocke, played by Olivia Munn.  The Newsroom actress recently posted a clip on Instagram of her sword skills that is better than I can do.

    PSYLOCKE

    Psylocke (Elizabeth “Betsy” Braddock) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with the X-Men. Created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Herb Trimpe in 1976, she first appeared in the Marvel UK series Captain Britain.

    Betsy was initially a supporting character in the adventures of her twin brother, Captain Britain, even briefly substituting for him in the role, before becoming the mutant superheroine and X-Men member Psylocke in 1986. Originally presented as a precognitive in the pages of Captain Britain and then as a telepath, the character eventually had her mind placed in the body of a Japanese female ninja known as Kwannon, gaining many of Kwannon’s martial arts skills and elements of her personality. Later, Psylocke acquired the power of telekinesis.

    Learned some new tricks…

    Much better than I could do for sure. Let’s hope they crank up the special effects on the sword when the movie arrives in theaters on May 27, 2016.
