Jennifer Lawrence is arguably the most popular actress in the world, who most people would probably like a hug from.

But judging by the look on Ben Hardy’s face, he wasn’t too bothered by the public display of affection at the X-Men Apocalypse premiere in London on Monday night.

The ex-EastEnders star looked more like a younger brother trying to keep his cool as his big sister gave him a hug in front of his friends.

The third instalment of Bryan Singer’s rebooted X-Men franchise, Apocalypse, has not been met well by critics.

Despite its stellar ensemble cast featuring the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Olivia Munn, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan, the reviews so far have felt it failed to really hit home.

Rotten Tomatoes, the famed film review aggregator, gives the film just a 45% approval rating with many critics commenting on it’s lack of story.

Everyone’s favourite mutants are back. In many ways the X-Men franchise kick-started the recent boom in superhero films. The series began in 2000 and continues with the sixth installment, Apocalypse, which is released later this month.

Director Bryan Singer has been at the helm for four of these mutant-based adventures, taking a break for The Last Stand and First Class.

Taking a look back over the franchise, and missing out the two spin-off Wolverine films (probably for the best), here’s how the films stack up.

Remember that Sad Ben Affleck video that went viral?

Of course you do. How could you forget the dulcet tones of Simon & Garfunkel as the camera closed in on Ben’s face after being asked how he felt about the bad reviews for Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice?

Well, according to BirthMoviesDeath, the actor was more than just sad. He was pretty pissed.

My sources have told me that Affleck was incredibly unhappy about the reception of BvS. He felt humiliated after spending so much of the press tour saying how much better this film would be than Daredevil. On top of that his agent was furious when Kevin Tsujihara jumped the gun and announced him as the director of The Batman – there were still negotiations happening.

Kevin Tsujihara is the head of Warner Bros. and back in April had confirmed Ben for both starring, directing and producing the second Batman film in this… Read the full story
