Avengers Doomsday teaser 3: X-Men return to the MCU; James Marsden’s Cyclops unleashes the biggest kinetic energy blast | Hollywood News

Marvel Studios has been releasing teasers of its next big tentpole, Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday for the past few weeks. While the two teasers already released confirm the return of two Avengers — Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers aka Captain America and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor — the third one teases a return that’s been a long time coming. “X-Men will return in Avengers: Doomsday,” says the screen at the end of the third teaser. It starts with a voiceover of Patrick Stewart delivering a signature Charles Xavier monologue: “Death comes for us all. It’s all I know for sure. The question isn’t are you prepared to die? The question is: Who would you be when you close your eyes?” Charles Xavier is seen measuring the damage done to the X-Mansion, the home of all X-Men, on his wheelchair. He’s then seen playing chess with someone, who is then revealed to be his ideological nemesis and old friend, Ian McKellen’s Magneto. The latter then gently holds Xavier’s hands, in a gesture to reassure him as they both …

Fortnite’s new post-apocalyptic season has Fallout, Magneto, and vehicular mayhem

Out with the gods, in with… a post-apocalypse. After some teasing, Fortnite just launched its latest battle royale season — we’re up to Chapter 5: Season 3 — and it’s heavily inspired by Mad Max and Fallout (in fact, Fallout is part of it). It’s called “Wrecked,” and it introduces a new wasteland region, a larger focus on vehicular combat, and, for some reason, Magneto. First up, let’s talk about the island itself. In the game’s fiction, a massive sandstorm rolled in, completely changing the southern section of the map. There are three new locations: a refinery called Redline Rig, a vehicle arena called Nitrodrome, and a beach area called Brutal Beachhead. To go along with them are “Wasteland Warriors,” which are basically this season’s boss characters, with names like The Machinist and Ringmaster Scarr. Also: there are now two War Buses patrolling the island, which players can hijack and take over. It appears there are two main gameplay updates. One is a substance called Nitro, which you can either drink or use on your …

X-Men: The Animated Series Your Ultimate Guide To The Mutant Universe

The beloved animated series X-Men is set to return to television with X-Men ‘97. This Disney+ series is the sixth instalment of X-Men, the first cartoon featuring the Marvel Comics superhero squad. Picking up almost 30 years later where the animated series left off, the new one is a resurrection of the original Fox Kids Saturday morning show, which aired 76 episodes between 1992 and 1997. Now, one of the main questions is whether or not fans must watch the original ‘90s show to understand what’s going on in the current season. For those adults who watched it as children back then, you don’t need to go on a nostalgic trip down memory lane to remember what happened because Marvel Studios has officially released a recap of X-Men: The Animated Series. And for the unversed, you can watch it too. The video loops backwards on the VHS, starting with the two-part Night of the Sentinels series debut in 1992 and ending with the Graduation Day series ending in 1997. Here are a few things you …

This Professor X-Magneto fan-casting just got approved by Giancarlo Esposito | Hollywood

Giancarlo Esposito is no stranger to action movie franchises. Plus, his contributions to the superhero series The Boys don’t hurt when weighing the possibility of him possibly taking over an X-Men fan-casting. Social media speculations and discussions are the promised fantasy land of all missed opportunities and whatnot for dream-casting hits and trials. One of these popular fan-castings on X (formerly Twitter) once suggested The Gentlemen star helming Professor X’s monumental seat in the X-Men universe, with Denzel Washington by his side as Magneto. Giancarlo Esposito thinks it “would be great” for his and Denzel Washington’s fan-casting as Professor X and Magneto to come to life. Fans now get to hear the issue addressed from the horse’s mouth. Amon Warmann mentioned the case in point in his latest Fade to Black podcast episode while interviewing Esposito about his latest Netflix venture.
