After the massive success of X-Men: Days of Future Past, writer Simon Kinberg is now changing gears and looking at the next installment in the X-Men franchise, but also the beginning of a possible second franchise that he will be apart of.

In an interview with Latino Review, Kinberg talked Apocalypse and what fans could expect.

"The answer is we really do think more broadly than one movie at a time. We think about it in sort of two ways - one is the global and one is the personal. We think about these X-Men movies as spread over - X-Men: First Class, Days of Future Past to Apocalypse was imagined as a trilogy for us.," Kinberg said.

"It's the origin stories in some ways of Charles, Raven, Hank and Eric and we will be settling things up in Apocalypse that will be generating new stories. We look at it globally as to where mutants fit into the world."

Kinberg added that Apocalypse would take advantage of the historical context of the 1980s. He also was noncommittal as to if Gambit, who is rumored to be played by Channing Tatum, is a part of the team-up in Apocalypse.

"I genuinely don't know the answer to that question," Kinberg said. "It's something we are all talking about whether it would be good for Gambit to be in a mainline X-Men movie or he would be in his own standalone movie potentially one day to be able to be in another X-Men movie after his Gambit movie introduces him. I really don't know the answer."

He also teased the Four Horsemen, who Kinberg assured were taken into thought very seriously by himself and director Bryan Singer.

"I will tell you this and obviously there are a lot of different versions of the Horseman over the books, and this will not reveal any of the identities so I apologize in advance," Kinberg said.

X-Men: Apocalypse is expected to hit theaters on May 27, 2016.
