| “ | You built these weapons to destroy us. Why? Because you are afraid of our gifts, because we are different. Humanity has always feared that which is different. Well, I am here to tell you, to tell the world, you are right to fear us. We are the future, we are the ones who will inherit this earth, and anyone who stands in our way will suffer the same fate as these men you see before you. Today was meant to be a display of your power, instead I give you a glimpse of the devastation my race can unleash upon yours. Let this be a warning to the world and my mutant brothers and sisters out there, I say this: No more hiding, no more suffering, you have lived in the shadows in shame and fear for too long. Come out, join me, fight together in a brotherhood of our kind. A new tomorrow that starts today. | „ |

Magneto (real name Erik Magnus Lehnsherr) is a major antagonist of the X-Men film series.
Magneto is an extremely powerful and ruthless mutant with the ability to manipulate all forms of magnetism. Despite his different views on mutant superiority, he has close bond with fellow mutant and longtime friend Charles Xavier, who believed that there was still good in Erik despite his actions. Despite being an enemy of Charles and the X-Men, he has assisted them on numerous occasions to stop bigger threats, such as Sebastian Shaw, William Stryker, Apocalypse, and the D'Bari.
He is portrayed by Sir Ian McKellen who also portrayed Cogsworth in the 2017 Beauty and the Beast Film in the modern-day films and by Michael Fassbender in the prequel series. In X-Men: The Official Game, he was voiced by Dwight Schultz.
