The First X-Men: Apocalypse Trailer

The X-Men: Apocalypse trailer is out today.

The film is something of a turning point for the X-Men movie franchise since it marks both the end of the X-Men: First Class Trilogy (and perhaps the final Bryan Singer X-Men film) while also introducing us to a new generation of X-gene stars.There are a slew of faces that include both the returning James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, and Nicholas Hoult, as well as the newcomers Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, and Alexandra Shipp.

X-Men: Apocalypse is the standardbearer for the new generation of mutant based films since it's sandwiched between two other fresh faces for the series: February's Deadpool and the delayed but still coming Gambit. And with Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, and Alexandra Shipp taking on the roles of traditional leading X-Men like Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Storm--noticeably during the same time that Hugh Jackman has made it clear that the untitled Wolverine 3 will be his last appearance as the character.

The X-Men: Apocalypse is slated to debut on 27 May 2016.
