Guys, GUYS! There’s no need to panic. We may have seen Peter Beale take his hot body right out of Walford last night as he headed off to New Zealand with Lauren Branning, but we have to remember EastEnders is FICTITIOUS.
Peter’s amazing muscles still exist in REAL LIFE in the form of actor Ben Hardy, and it seems we may soon be seeing a lot more of him on the silver screen as he’s apparently landed a “key role” in movie X-Men: Apocalypse.

It is not known what part he will play, but what with it being a superhero film and all, let’s hope he has loads of opportunities to get his top off.
It was previously reported Ben was in line for the role of Cyclops but Tyler Sheridan has since been cast for the part.
Ben joined EastEnders in 2013 and played a key part in the plotline surrounding the murder of his character’s sister Lucy Beale.
He appeared on the soap for the last time on Tuesday, in which he was seen departing for New Zealand with Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa), who is expecting his child.
Before his departure he pretty much BROKE Twitter when he stripped off for a scene and left fans wondering why he hadn't chosen to just abandon his clothes before.
In a BBC Three show after the live EastEnders episode last Friday, Ben said this would not be the last for Peter but suggested he would not be returning to the role.
We suppose that’s alright, Ben, as long as you take your top off once in a while…
