Actress Olivia Munn says she is loving playing the character of mutant Psylocke in the upcoming film "X-Men Apocalypse".
Munn, 35, who will star opposite James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence in the superhero film as the telekinetic mutant, said she is in love with her fearless character.
"She's a little scary. She has no problem battling and killing. I love how strong she is."
Munn also revealed she is a certified black belt in karate and practised sword-fighting to get into her character for the film.
"I'm the fourth of five children. All of us started karate at around age 5 and studied it until we were about 16, and we weren't allowed to stop practising until we had achieved black belts."
"X-Men: Apocalypse" will release in May 2016.
