James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Oscar Isaac (Poe from the new Star Wars movie) star in the new X-Men movie. Spoiler: there's a shock announcement at the very end of the trailer.

Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.

I liked the original X-Men movies well enough, they had their high points. Okay, basically the only high points were Patrick Stewart, Sir Ian McKellen, and Hugh Jackman. However, I'm really digging the rebooted X-Men much more. So, needless to say you'll spot me with a bathtub size container of popcorn in the theater for this one.
