One of the most awaited returns since being announced as cast members for the newest Avengers ensemble film are without the doubt the original castmembers of Fox’s X-Men universe - and Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, and James Marsden have just shown up to promote the return of Marvel’s Merry Mutants in “Avengers: Doomsday” - with the third teaser trailer showing off Professor X, Magneto, and Cyclops dressed in a 90’s Jim Lee era inspired costume unleashing his optic blast!
Check out the trailer below!
Avengers: Doomsday will be released on PH cinemas on December 2026.
One of the most important films in superhero movies history debuted this day twenty years ago in theaters in the United States! Way back in July 14, 2000 - 20th Century Fox in association with Marvel Entertainment unleashed the very first "X-Men" film - directed by Bryan Singer, written by David Hayter (aka Solid Snake of Metal Gear Solid fame) and featuring an ensemble cast that consisted of well known actors and then-unknown faces who would eventually become world renowned stars in the years to come!
X-Men (2000) Trailer #1
Adapted from the Marvel comic book series of the same name created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, this version of Marvel's Merry Mutants combined many themes and characters from the decades long history of the team - with characters like Wolverine and Rogue being incorporated into the main story and roster of characters. A then unknown Hugh Jackman was cast as Logan/ Wolverine - a highly desired role that was supposed to go to the likes of Russell Crowe and Dougray Scott, but scheduling conflicts for the latter ed to Jackman being cast and the rest as they say is history - as the actor would portray Wolverine for over ten films in the X-Men Movies franchise and turning him into a bonafide Hollywood star in addition to his accomplishments as a theater actor.
The film also stars Patrick Stewart as Professor X, Ian McKellen as Magneto, Rebecca Romijn as Mystique, James Marsden as Cyclops, Famke Janssen as Jean Grey, Halle Berry as Storm, and Anna Paquin as Rogue - a powerful cast to behold and during a time when Marvel movies were still limited to this, Blade the year before, and Sam Raimi's Spider-Man in 2002. These films would eventually help Marvel recoup from the bankruptcy woes and leasing out their characters to other studios - leading to the eventual formation of "Marvel Studios" and the release of the first "Iron Man" movie in 2008. 20th Century Fox would also continue to see success in their "X-Men Movies" franchise following the first X-Men film, with many sequels, prequels, and spin-offs that would see Hugh Jackman's Wolverine get his own trilogy of solo films and a new generation of actors playing the younger versions of the X-Men in a established new timeline. And of course Ryan Reynolds became Deadpool and had two movies to his name - all of this happening before Fox was bought by Disney and the X-Men films under their watch ended with last year's "Dark Phoenix".
So say what you will, but we owe this film a lot for all the superhero movies we get today. Happy 20 years, X-Men!
It's been almost 20 years since the first "X-Men" film was released and started the former 20th Century Fox's "X-Men Movies" universe, and to kind of commemorate that milestone - Wolverine star and actor Hugh Jackman had a "cast reunion" with his co-stars like Patrick Stewart/ Professor X, Halle Berry/ Storm, and Famke Janssen/ Jean Grey to reminisce about the good times and playing Marvel's Merry Mutants in the big screen.

That is until Deadpool star and actor Ryan Reynolds shows up in the conference uninvited... And some hilarious stuff ensues that you just need to watch the video via Global Citizen for yourselves.
Undeniably one of the best superhero films ever made and something very worthy of the Academy Awards, director James Mangold's "Logan" was a certified hit and up there among the best movies released in 2017. It was the swan song and perfect ending for Hugh Jackman's tenure as the titular character in Fox's "X-Men Movies" saga - with the former "Wolverine" living his twilight years caring for an ailing Charles Xavier and discovering he has a clone daughter in Laura/ X-23.
Recently, James Mangold held a watch party for "Logan", and shared some new "Never-Before-Seen" pictures and concept art from the film that delivers more insight and glimpses into what made this X-Men spin-off film resonate with the fanbase. You can check out more via Comic Book Movie.com
It's been THREE YEARS since Hugh Jackman went at it "One Last Time" and played the superhero part he made famous in the big screen as Wolverine/ Logan in the aptly titled "Logan" - the X-Men Movies spin-off film and third entry in the "Wolverine Trilogy" that sees an aged, battered, and tired Logan living in a world with lesser mutants and caring for an elderly Charles Xavier - only to be thrust back into the spotlight when he is hunted by men looking for a young girl with the same powers he has. It was the perfect send-off movie for the character who has been the centerpiece of Fox's X-Men Movies for years, and Jackman honors that legacy by sharing some new photos of his jacked up Old Man Logan with claws sheathed out via his Instagram!
X-CELLENT looking photos of the best there is. Jackman really got ripped for the role.
Directed by James Mangold, Logan was released in March 2017 and was one of the last films of 20th Century Fox's X-Men film franchise before the company was eventually bought by Disney. Jackman also co-starred with the returning Patrick Stewart as Professor X/ Charles Xavier, while a then young Dafne Keen played his daughter Laura Kinney/ X-23.
Despite the fact that he says it's "One Last Time" for him to play the role or rumors suggesting that he may yet come back to even team up with Ryan Reynolds for a crossover with Deadpool,Hugh Jackman is set to play his signature superhero role of Wolverine for what may be his greatest challenge yet in the twilight of his heroic career, as he cares for an ailing Professor X and finds a young mutant girl who has the same power as he has in the final Wolverine film of the X-Men Movies series called "Logan".
To further promote for the release of the James Mangold directed film coming out in less than two months, a brand new theatrical trailer has been released by 20th Century Fox and Marvel, showing more on the developing bond between Logan and his young female clone, X-23.

Additionally a "Red Band" version of the same trailer was also released, featuring a few additional scenes that includes some profanity and more interaction between the characters that includes Patrick Stewart's Professor X.

Logan will be released in theaters on March 3, 2017.
After revealing the first teaser poster and official title of the next Wolverine movie coming next year, director James Mangold has tweeted a new photo (also reported by Comic Book.com) for the film "Logan" which shows Patrick Stewart a very old and aged Professor Charles Xavier, better known to X-Men fans as Professor X.
Logan will be the third Wolverine solo film, and is expected to see the "End Days" of the X-Men's feral mutant. The film will be released courtesy of 20th Century Fox and Marvel on March 3, 2017.
Hitting theaters later this month and already "X-Calating" in the promotional material wheel, 20th Century Fox and Marvel have released a couple of new featurettes and the brand new IMAX poster for X-Men: Apocalypse - the third film in the X-Men Prequel film series that once again sees James McAvoy as Professor X, Michael Fassbender as Magneto, and Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique as they encounter an ancient mutant that rises back to conquer all of human and mutantkind in the form of Apocalypse.
The new IMAX poster, a combination of two previously seen theatrical ones, can be seen above via Coming Soon.
