'X-Men: Apocalypse' Updates and Spoilers: New Teaser Trailer Description Leaked; 'Professor X' Teases Fans About His Hair Loss

Just last week, the 'Captain America: Civil War' trailer broke the Marvel Cinematic World record of having the most number of views after 24 hours of release. This was answered by DC with its own Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice this week. Soon, fans would be able to witness the unveiling of yet another superhero movie, 'X-Men Apocalypse,' which is set to premiere alongside the opening of 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' on December 17.

Days before the release, an alleged description of its very first full trailer surfaces online. According to Comicbook, the Italian movie site Cinefilos got the description from Giornate professionali di cinema di Sorrento, an Italian film industry summit. Comicbook ran the description through Google translate and this was what they got from it: The preview initially shows Jean Grey narrating her nightmare to Professor X. Then comes a scene with Psylocke and Storm following an intimidating hooded creature. The mysterious figure says the world needs to change. The three of them find Magneto, and when Magneto asks for the hooded figure's name, it reveals the face of Apocalypse. The final scene allegedly showed a bald Professor X.

Screenrant says the description is pretty much similar with what was presented at the San Diego Comic Con. This might cause disappointment to X-Men fans as they have been patiently waiting for an all new teaser from the series. Speculations say that although it might be a rehash of the previous teaser, the trailer due on December 18 would be much more polished.

In a recent interview with 'The Graham Norton Show' X-Men actor James McAvoy, who plays Charles Xavier aka Professor X, teases fans about his character in the movie. He shares the probable cause of Xavier's hair loss, "He ends up going through something so horrible and physically painful that he literally half pulls his hair out, half it falls out... Maybe, or maybe not..."

The excitement builds further for the X-Men fans as they wait for the official trailer this December, and of course, for the opening of the film come May 27 next year.
