The new trailer gives fans their first glimpse of Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Patrick Stewart playing Magneto and Professor X. It also shows James Marsden reprising his role as Cyclops, sporting a costume that’s much closer to his comic book look.
The next Marvel Cinematic Universe movie will include Mystique and Nightcrawler, played again by Rebecca Romijn and Alan Cumming, who originally portrayed them in the X-Men films. Channing Tatum will return as Gambit, having first appeared as the character in the MCU with 2024’s Deadpool & Wolverine.
The initial trailer for Avengers: Doomsday highlighted the return of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers, confirming his role in the upcoming Phase 6 film. The trailer showed that Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter had a son together, and that Steve will be back in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
