In the near future, when children are being born with a unique X-factor within their genes, providing them with special powers and making them mutants, the seeds of a fresh Holocaust are increasingly being planted by Senator Robert Kelly. Meanwhile, several good mutants is assembled by Professor Charles Xavier, who trains and cares for them.
Magneto attempts to even things out with a machine that would speed up the mutation process in all humans, making everyone equal even though Xavier wants a peaceful method of ending the violence toward mutants. Xavier brings together a particular band of mutants called “X-Men” to stop Magneto.
Meanwhile, two strange mutants emerge: Logan, a robust and extreme mutant with no past, no memories, and a young girl named Rogue. Their missions for identities ultimately bring them in the sights of Xavier and Magneto, but for what purpose?
