Alan Cumming is back for “Avengers: Doomsday,” revising his role as the blue-skinned, sword-wielding, teleporting Nightcrawler. While Cumming famously didn’t love his time on “X2” (the character did not return for “X-Men: The Last Stand,” the actor said his second turn in the pointy ears was a healing experience.

Or, maybe there’s some kind of intense, gory scene he’s involved in. The only spoiler Cumming let slip about Doomsday was that he hits Pedro Pascal’s Reed over the head with something. Whatever Nightcrawler’s role is in the new MCU movie, I’m all for it!

Alan Cumming is happy he got the chance to reprise his role as Kurt Wagner, a.k.a Nightcrawler, in Avengers: Doomsday after his “terrible” experience shooting X2: X-Men United . The 60-year-old actor revealed in a recent PEOPLE interview that he “just finished” filming his Doomsday scenes earlier this month.
