Jennifer Lawrence Confirms She's Blue For A Little Bit In X-Men: Apocalypse

With the release of X-Men: Apocalypse's first trailer this week, many X-fans are asking, "Why isn't Mystique blue?" It's because the make-up is a lot of work and very uncomfortable for the actress charged with bringing Raven to life on screen, Jennifer Lawrence.

However, Lawrence recently revealed she will, in fact, show-off Mystique's famous blue skin in Apocalypse. "I am blue in it, a little bit," Larence told CinemaBlend. "I put my foot down as much as I could. [But they were very, very nice to me."

Lawrence wasn't open to spilling any more details about her role in the film just yet but at least we know we'll see the Mystique we've known for years despite not seeing the blue make-up in the Apocalypse trailer. Apocalypse marks Lawrence's last go as Mystique, so hopefully whoever takes over finds the make-up a bit more comfortable.

X-Men: Apocalypse hits theaters May 27, 2017.
