After The Marvels and Deadpool & Wolverine laid the groundwork for more Fox X-Men to return, Avengers: Doomsday is going all in by bringing back several non-Wolverine (or Professor X) characters from the original films. Among them is James Marsden, who played Cyclops in that initial trilogy and didn’t really get to do much in them.

James Marsden is opening up about coming back to the big screen as Cyclops. In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Marsden spoke about how he feels to reprise his role as comic book character Cyclops in the upcoming film, Avengers: Doomsday.

Marsden will be playing Scott Summers / Cyclops in the upcoming film. He first played the character in the 2000 film X-Men, which was directed by Bryan Singer. The actor reprised his role in its sequels, X2: X-Men United and X-Men: The Last Stand. He also did a cameo in 2014's X-Men: Days of Future Past.
