The time has come for Marvel Studios to reveal the all-new X-Men who will be gracing the MCU.

After weeks of rumors, Kevin Feige came to D23 with the core cast onstage, listing them off one by one: Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, Christopher Abbott as Xavier, Inde Navarette as Rogue, Maya Boyd as Storm, and finally Adam Driver as Mister Sinister.

Directed by Jake Schreier of Thunderbolts fame, this’ll be the first X-Men movie to bear the name under Marvel Studios’ banner. Feige and Schreier have been talking up their take on these characters for a while now, with the former promising they’d be a driving part of the next saga after the multiverse wraps up. That’s not to say Marvel’s leaving X-fans hanging until then: legacy actors are back for Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, and new seasons of X-Men ’97 are coming on a yearly basis. Plus, the video games are starting to feature more and more mutants after they were MIA for quite a while.

So, you can (hopefully) look forward to X-Men from Marvel Studios on May 5, 2028. Hope you survive the wait.
