'Avengers: Doomsday' Teaser Reveals A Historic X-Men First
"With Avengers: Doomsday, Marvel's most popular mutants are heading into a new cinematic universe, where they'll team up with the mightiest heroes of Earth-616 against the threat of Doctor Doom. Though the wait for this crossover has barely begun, Marvel is wisely using this time to tease its most epic movie yet. Four teasers will debut ahead of Avatar: Fire & Ash in theaters, with the third trailer giving us our first look at the X-Men in the MCU."
"By the time Doomsday hits theaters this December, it will have been 20 years since we last saw Marsden truly in action as Cyclops. He did return in 2014's Days of Future Past, but only for a brief cameo designed to reverse his disappointing disposal in X-Men: The Last Stand. The X-Men films never knew what to do with Cyclops; he mostly served as a narrative foil to Hugh Jackman's Wolverine, and an obstacle to Wolverine's forbidden romance with Jean Grey (Famke Janssen)."
Marvel is bringing Fox-era X-Men into the MCU for Avengers: Doomsday, pairing them with Earth-616 heroes against Doctor Doom. Four teasers will debut before Avatar: Fire & Ash, with the third trailer showing the X-Men in the MCU. Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen return as Professor Xavier and Magneto. James Marsden's Cyclops appears in a comic-accurate costume and performs a dramatic action sequence. Marsden last had a substantial Cyclops role two decades ago, with only a brief cameo in Days of Future Past. Sentinels appear as kaiju-sized robots targeting mutants, and Cyclops unleashes a massive optic blast.
