20th Century Fox has released a new clip from X-Men: Apocalypse, and it features Jennifer Lawrence’s Mystique (looking downright incredible) arriving at a mutant fight club to watch a battle between Angel and Nightcrawler. The latter definitely doesn’t seem to want to be there, though Angel – who becomes one of the Four Horsemen – appears to be having fun!

So far, everything we’ve seen from X-Men: Apocalypse looks pretty great, and this fight scene is no exception. The trailers have of course revealed that Mystique and Nightcrawler escape from this German fight club, but will they be mother and son like in the comic books?

Here’s the official synopsis for the movie which sheds some light on what else to expect:

SINCE THE DAWN OF CIVILIZATION, HE WAS WORSHIPED AS A GOD. APOCALYPSE, THE FIRST AND MOST POWERFUL MUTANT FROM MARVEL’S X-MEN UNIVERSE, AMASSED THE POWERS OF MANY OTHER MUTANTS, BECOMING IMMORTAL AND INVINCIBLE. UPON AWAKENING AFTER THOUSANDS OF YEARS, HE IS DISILLUSIONED WITH THE WORLD AS HE FINDS IT AND RECRUITS A TEAM OF POWERFUL MUTANTS, INCLUDING A DISHEARTENED MAGNETO (MICHAEL FASSBENDER), TO CLEANSE MANKIND AND CREATE A NEW WORLD ORDER, OVER WHICH HE WILL REIGN. AS THE FATE OF THE EARTH HANGS IN THE BALANCE, RAVEN (JENNIFER LAWRENCE) WITH THE HELP OF PROFESSOR X (JAMES MCAVOY) MUST LEAD A TEAM OF YOUNG X-MEN TO STOP THEIR GREATEST NEMESIS AND SAVE MANKIND FROM COMPLETE DESTRUCTION.

As well as returning cast members such as Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, and Nicholas Hoult, X-Men: Apocalypse will also introduce Alexandra Shipp, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Lana Condor, Oscar Isaac, Ben Hardy, Olivia Munn, and a number of others. The movie is currently set to be released on May 27th, 2016.
