The follow-up to 'X-Men: Apocalypse' will reportedly start filming in early 2017 in Montreal.

AceShowbiz - Although "X-Men: Apocalypse" is still six months away from being released, new rumors about the future of the mutant franchise have emerged. Journal De Montreal (via Heroic Hollywood) has reported that the follow-up to "Apocalypse" will start shooting in early 2017.

It is said that the next X-Men movie will begin production in November 2016, before the crew and cast head to Mel's Studios in Montreal to start principal photography. It is Michel Trudel, the President of the studio, who brings words about the seventh installment of the X-Men movie franchise.

"It's always great news for our industry when we welcome this kind of production. We talk about films which have budgets of more than $200 million," he told the site. "A big production like 'X-Men' generates direct and indirect economic benefits of hundreds of millions of dollars and makes work more than 2,000 Quebec technicians."

Trudel seems to be pretty sure with the news, saying that the crew and cast of the movie like the studio's facilities and technicians and "the director of the films also like the city." Thus, Bryan Singer is likely to return to director's chair for the next X-Men film.

There is no information about the release date, but the site reports that the movie eyes a summer 2018 release date. The new film will reportedly focus on the new cast with James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender returning.

There is no official confirmation about the rumors just yet. The obvious thing is "X-Men: Apocalypse" will arrive in the U.S. on May 27, 2016.
