Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart represent X-Men in new 'Avengers: Doomsday' teaser trailer
The X-Men take center stage in the new teaser trailer for "Avengers: Doomsday."
Marvel released the third teaser trailer for "Avengers: Doomsday" on Tuesday, and it stars Patrick Stewart back as Charles Xavier and Ian McKellen returning as Magneto.
See the teaser here.
The trailer, which runs a little over a minute, finds the pair reuniting over a game of chess.
"Death comes for us all. That's all I know for sure. The question isn't, 'Are you prepared to die?' The question is, 'Who will you be when you close your eyes?'" Magneto says in the teaser.
We then see James Marsden in character as Cyclops. He tears off his visor and unleashes a powerful red beam from his eyes.
The teaser ends with a black screen and text that reads, "The X-Men will return in Avengers: Doomsday."
Stewart, McKellen, and Marsden first appeared together as Professor X, Magneto and Cyclops, respectively, in the 2000 film "X-Men."
"Avengers: Doomsday" directors Anthony Russo and Joe Russo took to Instagram to share the new teaser, writing in the caption, "Who will you be… When you close your eyes… #FearDoom."
This is the third teaser for the film. It follows a previous trailer that showed the return of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers -- a character who hasn't appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2019's "Avengers: Endgame" -- as well as one focused on Chris Hemsworth's Thor.
"Avengers: Doomsday" will arrive in theaters Dec. 18, 2026.
Disney is the parent company of ABC News and Marvel Entertainment.
