The picture, which features soldiers carrying bows and arrows in the woods, arrives with an equally cryptic caption which reads, 'The past catches up.'

Bryan Singer just teased fans with a mysterious photo from the set of "X-Men: Apocalypse". The brand new picture posted on Instagram shows a young girl surrounded by soldiers who are carrying bows and arrows in the woods. "The past catches up. #Xmen #XMenApocalypse," so the director wrote in the caption.
While the caption hints that something or someone from the past may return to the upcoming movie, the image of soldiers armed with only bow and arrows makes people think that it has something to do with Magneto. Possibly, because of his actions in the past, Michael Fassbender's character is now being hunted by the authority.
"Apocalypse" takes place a decade after "X-Men: Days of Future Past". The altering of time has unleashed a new and uniquely powerful enemy. Charles/Professor Xavier (James McAvoy), Erik/Magneto, Raven/Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Hank/Beast (Nicholas Hoult) are joined by young Cyclops (Tye Sheridan), Storm (Alexandra Shipp), Jean (Sophie Turner) and others as the X-Men must fight their most formidable foe yet - an ancient unrelenting force determined to cause an apocalypse unlike any in human history.
Also added to the cast are Ben Hardy as Angel, Lana Condor as Jubilee G and Olivia Munn as Psylocke. The movie is slated for a May 27, 2016 release in the States.
Singer, who returns at the helm for the conclusion of a trilogy which started with "X-Men: First Class", recently shared a picture of McAvoy shaving his head to reprise his role as Professor X. He sported luxurious brown hair in the previous two films.
