20th Century Fox has released a new blooper reel from the set of X-Men: Apocalypse, featuring stars Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and Nicolas Hoult, among many others.

The final version of "X-Men: Apocalypse" may have cut many of its lighter, more comedic scenes, but a recently released blooper reel delivers some of that happy, family-like feel. About eight minutes of ad-libbed lines and messed-up stunts are now available for viewing.

In "X-Men"-appropriate fashion, the blooper reel is an ensemble effort. James McAvoy, who plays Charles "Professor X" Xavier, pulls faces; Jennifer Lawrence, who plays Mystique, messes up her German and drops some comic book in-jokes around 6:07; Alexandra Shipp, who plays Storm, goes flying with her special effects; and Nicholas Hoult, who plays Beast, gives a foul-mouthed pep talk to the new X-Men.

Directed by Bryan Singer, "X-Men: Apocalypse" is available to own October 4, on Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K Ultra HD.
