McAvoy, who was sporting a shaved head, admitted that his new “’do” was indeed for X-Men: Apocalypse.
“I got in a fight with a pair of scissors … for X-Men,” McAvoy told ETonline. “It’s time to get all ‘Patrick Stewart,’ so yeah.”
But the Scottish actor played coy when it came to a X-Men: Apocalypse surprise. When pressed for some intel on what fans could expect later that day, McAvoy had this to say.

“I think there’s quite a few of the X-Men cast here, like Sophie [Turner]’s here for something, Nick [Hoult]’s here for something, but I don’t know if we’re all here for X-Men,” he said, skirting the question. “Oscar [Isaac]’s in every movie getting made so Oscar would be here, But we might all be here for other things – maybe.”
McAvoy did reveal that he has seen Isaac as the titular villain, Apocalypse, and that the two go head to head in a huge fight!
“I’ve beat the shit out of him as Apocalypse,” McAvoy revealed, admitting that “it was awesome.”
