Marvel has officially unveiled the highly anticipated X-Men teaser trailer for Avengers: Doomsday, delighting fans after a brief run in theaters before Avatar: Fire and Ash. This exciting new trailer has captured the attention of audiences, especially after its previous leak.
X-Men Return with Original Cast
The trailer showcases iconic characters Professor X, Magneto, and Cyclops, with a fourth teaser rumored to be heading to theaters soon. Following the Captain America teaser where Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers is seen holding a baby—likely his child with Peggy Carter—and Thor’s appearance caring for his adopted daughter, Love, the X-Men are poised to make a grand return. The film promises the return of beloved X-Men characters played by their original actors, such as Kelsey Grammer as Beast and Patrick Stewart as Professor X, among others.
X-Men Take Center Stage
In the trailer, Ian McKellen as Magneto appears in a setting reminiscent of the 90s, paying homage to the popular comic series. Although Magneto is not in battle gear, Patrick Stewart’s Professor X dons a suit akin to the one from the comics. The action unfolds at the iconic X-Mansion, also known as Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. Cyclops unleashes his optic blast, and a massive boot—presumably of a Sentinel—adds to the drama. The serious tone is palpable as Magneto speaks about the inevitability of death alongside Charles.
Escalating Tensions and Battles
Reports suggest a major battle scene at the X-Mansion, potentially involving Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom orchestrating a Sentinel attack on the X-Men. This battle could highlight Doctor Doom’s formidable power, setting the stage for universe-shattering events reminiscent of Thanos’ brutal victory over Hulk. The highlight of the footage is Cyclops embracing his comic book origins, tearing off his visor amidst chaos. Fans are on edge, wondering if Cyclops might sacrifice himself to save his mutant counterparts.
The pressing question remains: who survives this epic showdown? Will the surviving X-Men join forces with the Avengers against Doctor Doom, or will their conflicts dominate the narrative until the anticipated 2027’s Avengers: Secret Wars? Regardless, the X-Mansion’s fate seems grim—yet again.
