Oscar Isaac is still doing working the press and awards circuit for his latest film, A Most Violent Year, and is part of the cast for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but the actor is already looking forward to his role as one of the X-Men’s most powerful villains, Apocalypse.

So how badass is Isaac’s En Sabah Nur going to be in 2016’s X-Men: Apocalypse?

“I’ve seen a couple things,” Isaac told MTV at the National Board of Review Awards. “Scary s**t. Scary **t… I’m going to bring [the X-Men] down to their knees. It’s amazing, I’m so excited about everything that’s going to happen.”

It’s great to see the actor so enthused about the role, and anyone whose read some of the many Apocalypse stories from X-Men, X-Factor, and X-Force comics knows that, if anyone can make the X-Men kneel, it’s Apocalypse.

X-Men: Apocalypse opens May 27, 2016.
