With just one week until the release of the new Disney+ Original series, “X-Men ’97”, Disney held a special screening event at Hollywood’s El Capitan Theatre, where selected fans got to see the first three episodes of the “X-Men” revival series.

The show revisits the iconic era of the 1990s as The X-Men, a band of mutants who use their uncanny gifts to protect a world that hates and fears them, are challenged like never before, forced to face a dangerous and unexpected new future.

At the event, filmmakers, voice talent and special guests joined fans to celebrate the upcoming launch of Marvel Animation’s “X-Men ’97” on Disney+.

Guests included filmmakers Brad Winderbaum (EP/ head of streaming, television and animation for Marvel Studios), Jake Castorena (supervising producer/head director), Dana Vasquez-Eberhardt (co-EP/VP Marvel Animation), Eric Lewald & Julia Lewald and Larry Houston (consulting producers), and The Newton Brothers—Taylor Stewart and Andy Grush (score by).

Members of the voice cast were also in attendance, including Gui Agustini (Sunspot), Eric Bauza (Sentinels), Chris Britton (Mr. Sinister), Ray Chase (Cyclops), Holly Chou (Jubilee), Alyson Court (Abscissa), Cal Dodd (Wolverine), Jennifer Hale (Jean Grey), Adrian Hough (Nightcrawler), JP Karliak (Morph), AJ LoCascio (Gambit), Ross Marquand (Professor X), Chris Potter (Cable), Isaac Robinson-Smith (Bishop), Matthew Waterson (Magneto) and Lenore Zann (Rogue).
