Of the three, Sophie is the most recognisable face who plays Sansa Stark in the fantasy epic drama, HBO’s Game of Thrones. Tye is also one of the upcoming faces that starred in 2012’s Mud; Shipp is relatively new and has starred in Nickleodean’s mystery show House of Anubis as KTRush.
All three cast members will join James McAvoy, Micheal Fassender and Jennifer Lawrence and Oscar Issac for the sixth X-Men movie of the franchise.
Shooting starts on X-Men: Apocalypse in Montreal this April for a 27 May, 2016, release.
