Ben Hardy has tweeted out a photo of him training in an indoor skydiving facility (wind tunnel) for his upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse role.

The 24-year-old British actor, best known for his role in EastEnders, is playing Warren Worthington III. You know Warren as Angel, or Archangel, which is what Apocalypse transforms him into one of his Four Horsemen.

The image came along with this message: "Angel needs to know how to fly!"

He sure does, Ben, he sure does.
