Another teaser for Avengers: Doomsday recently surfaced online, this time spotlighting the X-Men. Fans eagerly cheer as the iconic mutants return. However, the clip has also sparked fears about the possible fate of a beloved character. The looming threat of Doctor Doom has made viewers anxious that someone might not survive the film.
Moreover, this concern is understandable, as Marvel has previously killed off this character multiple times in past live-action films. The teaser’s dramatic tone and ominous dialogue have only heightened fan speculation and excitement.
Professor X’s History of Multiple Deaths
Marvel Studios and The Russo Brothers released the Avengers: Doomsday X-Men teaser. It played in theaters last week and is now available online. In the short clip, Professor X ominously says, “Death comes for us all.” This line has fans worried that Charles Xavier might meet his demise once again.
Historically, Professor X has died four times in previous live-action films, each time in a way that left audiences shocked:
- X-Men: The Last Stand: During a confrontation, Jean Grey, transformed into the Phoenix, destroys Xavier. However, he seemingly survives by transferring his consciousness into a comatose man.
- X-Men: Days of Future Past: Sent back in time to prevent disaster, Xavier is vaporized by a Sentinel, though the new timeline averts his death.
- Logan: An elderly Xavier is stabbed by X-24, Wolverine’s clone, resulting in his death while sleeping.
- Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness: As a member of the Illuminati, Xavier is killed by Scarlet Witch while attempting to free Earth-838 Wanda from her control.
Interestingly, each of these “deaths” served a narrative purpose, either advancing the plot or exploring Xavier’s character in new ways. This makes fans speculate whether Marvel may surprise them again in Avengers: Doomsday.
Fans Fear History May Repeat in Avengers: Doomsday
Given this history, fans are understandably concerned. The teaser suggests that Professor X may again face a perilous situation. Additionally, the repeated portrayal of his death in multiple timelines makes it difficult for audiences to predict whether he will survive this next MCU outing.
Furthermore, Doctor Doom’s return adds another layer of danger. Known for his ruthless intelligence and immense power, Doom could pose a serious threat to the X-Men, creating a tense atmosphere throughout the film. Fans now watch every scene featuring the telepath with anticipation and anxiety.
Despite the concerns, the teaser also reminds fans why the X-Men remain so beloved. Their inclusion in Avengers: Doomsday has sparked excitement for new team dynamics, epic battles, and potential crossovers within the MCU. Fans are eager to see how Marvel Studios balances action, suspense, and character development while potentially putting one of the franchise’s most iconic heroes in jeopardy.
The Avengers: Doomsday teaser has clearly succeeded in generating excitement—and anxiety—for fans of the X-Men. While it’s uncertain whether Professor X will survive, one thing is certain: Marvel continues to keep audiences guessing and emotionally invested in its characters.
