It’s been awhile since the last glimpse of footage from X-Men: Apocalypse, but a new trailer released Thursday morning offers a closer look at the war the mutants will wage with Oscar Isaac’s Apocalypse. There’ll be rockets, there’ll be blown-up bridges, there’ll be Olivia Munn slicing cars in half like sticks of butter. The much anticipated ninth installment in the X-Men film series, the movie finds the mutants pooling their powers to try to stop Apocalypse, a god-like mutant, from his quest to destroy civilization.
X-Men: Apocalypse, which adds Isaac, Munn and Game of Thrones‘ Sophie Turner to its cast of returning mutants like Jennifer Lawrence and Michael Fassbender, hits theaters May 27.
