With half a year before the release of the next "X-Men" movie, actor Evan Peters dropped more details about the plot involving his character Peter Maximoff/Quicksilver in "X-Men: Apocalypse."

In a recent interview with Details, the 28-year-old actor revealed Quicksilver's backstory before he joined the group of supermutants who will fight the evil villain Magneto and Apocalypse.

"The story is that my character is searching for his father and wants to find him. It starts there and then he jumps on the X-Men train and gets sucked up in this whole Apocalypse madness: He tries to stop him from destroying the world." Peters shared.

Those who have read the comics know that the biological dad of Quicksilver and his twin sister the Scarlet Witch is Magneto, but that relationship was not discussed in the previous "X-Men" movies. However, Peters revealed that the plot will finally come to light in "X-Men: Apocalypse."

Aside from Quicksilver's personal journey, Peters also confirmed that the next installment of the box-office hit "X-Men" franchise will be the most epic one yet. "It's the biggest X-Men film. It's about the apocalypse, so the scope of the film is huge," the actor stated.

Film director Bryan Singer stated during the San Pedro International Film Festival last October that the upcoming movie will be the biggest installment out of all the past "X-Men" films.

"I think it's gonna be a longer X-Men movie. The X-Men movies, I usually I keep under two hours, but this one I may actually let be a longer movie because it's sort of a wrap-up of six movies," the film director earlier shared.

Fans are expecting to see a new "X-Men: Apocalypse" trailer in the coming days, after Singer recently posted on his Instagram page that he and movie editor John Ottman were working on the new promo clip.
