Basically this. She's going to be in the movie for probably no longer than 10 minutes and have no major impact on the plot. I don't think any scene is going to hinge on her delivering a respectable performance.
Olivia Munn is Pyslocke in X-Men Apocalypse

I can totally see her as Psylocke. Hopefully she can act, haven't watched Newsroom.

Why do you guys worry?
She will look nothing like the character, act nothing like the character and chances are her powers are different too.

Get the fuck out of here with that slut shaming attitude.

Man. Her 15 minutes need to be up so badly.
Didn't think about that. Not sure who the worst actress is here, though. It's like a race to the bottom.

Cool, I remember the meltdowns over DOFP casting. Not to worried in comic movies these days it's about the ensemble and not just one bit role. That said can't wait to see the costume.

She's was British but got her mind transferred into an Asian woman.
So honestly, I have no idea.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I think you may be overestimating the acting chops required to play Psylocke.

Really? Is that why she's dating those people? Why would anyone date Chris Pine, lolrite?
Why are nerds and geeks so hateful towards this woman? I think if she did a guest spot on Big Bang Theory the Internet would implode.
Parallax
best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"
blink wasnt asian either, but that didnt stop singer

Definitely thought "Olivia Wilde" in my head and got excited. Sigh.
The talent potential.

Sadly the opposite is also true.
"Who knew Jennifer Lawrence the badass from Hunger Games would be abysmal in an X-Men movie?"
Sure, why not? I'm sure she'll do a good job.
Really? That is what you're going to complain about? Who gives a fuck?

Days of Future Past was great.
People acting all upset because she's not a good actor. lmao it's a fucking superhero movie
She needs a mouth to speak her several lines and she is going to look hot as fuck. She will do fine in both of those jobs.
Goodfellas is great. Psycho is great. Shawshank is great.
X-men DoFP was good? I guess.

SHE'S NOT EVEN FUCKING BRITISH.
Hugh Jackman isn't from Canada.
What a strange overreaction and what a dumb detail to nitpick.
So she'll fit right in with the other C-tier mutants they use in the fringe.

I don't remember much about Psylocke. Remind me again of why this is a bad casting decision?
I mean, she's hot and Psylocke's hot...

That was so weird. I mean, January Jones isn't amazing but she can be pretty good. Just like right now in The Last Man on Earth.
ummm ... so is Munn lol

So basically they're splitting the difference with Munn since she's half Asian.

I'm also eagerly anticipating the astoundingly long action set piece devoted only to her and her alone so she can show just how freaking OP she is
And set it to Time in a Bottle too, fuck it
