Oscar Isaac, who has been preparing for the role of Apocalypse, has reportedly started filming "X-Men: Apocalypse."

The photo showed a table with printed sheets of paper, a water bottle, a box of tissue and a chair that has the name of the character he's playing.

The "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens" actor wanted to come up with a unique angle in portraying the role. International Business Times learned that he had been focusing on the philosophy of the comic book's character.

In the comic book, Isaac's character was considered as the first mutant. He was born in Egypt 5,000 years ago.

Speaking of Egypt, an exclusive concept art of this villain's tomb was revealed by Entertainment Weekly on Twitter. It showed a picture of a falcon looking intensely over an Egyptian pyramid.

The photo also showed individuals breaking in, and it wasn't clear if they were grave robbers or archaeologist, according to the report posted by Cinemablend. There are speculations right now that they could be the reason behind the rise of the Apocalypse.

This new movie is believed to be the conclusion story of the six X-men films moviegoers have been watching for the past 15 years. This could also be the last X-men movie of Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique) and Hugh Jackman (Wolverine).

Joining the "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1" actress and Jackman are James McAvoy (Charles Xavier), Michael Fassbender (Magneto), Nicholas Hoult (Beast) and Sophie Turner (Jean Grey). The movie is written by Singer, together with Simon Kinberg, Dan Harris and Michael Dougherty, according to Ace Showbiz.

"X-Men: Apocalypse" is scheduled to be released on May 27, 2016.
