Even if you love the original X-Men movies, it’s hard to deny that they did the character of Cyclops dirty. James Marsden portrayed the X-Men’s field leader, Scott Summers, pretty accurately in the first film.

It speaks to how stacked Avengers: Doomsday's cast currently is that Cyclops actor James Marsden returning to his iconic X-Men role for the first time in over a decade has barely been a topic of conversation ahead of the MCU crossover event.

James Marsden confirmed his return as Cyclops in the upcoming MCU film 'Avengers: Doomsday', expressing excitement about being part of a "gigantic" project. He humorously acknowledged feeling slightly old for the costume but emphasised the special significance of reprising the role that launched his career.
