X-Men: Apocalypse

Apocalypse awakens after thousands of years and gathers powerful mutants around him. Raven and Xavier must help a younger generation confront a threat that aims to remake the world on its own terms.

The film places inexperienced team members beside figures with established loyalties and regrets. Watch how the idea of belonging can attract characters to very different leaders. The scale of the threat gives the new group a reason to discover how it can work together.
