The third and final X-Men: Days of Future Past trailer finally brings the film's storyline about the mutant-snatching Sentinel robots front and center.

The nearly three-minute trailer, accompanied by an orchestral version of Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir," shows a future Wolverine (played by Hugh Jackman) and a young Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) recruiting a mutant army to fend off the Sentinels.

Scientist Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage of Game of Thrones) originally created the Sentinels to hunt mutants, but as Wolverine says in the trailer, they "began targeting everyone."

Ultimately, mutants from X-Men: First Class and their older counterparts from the original X-Men trilogy travel through two time periods to try to save mankind and mutantkind.

X-Men: Days of Future Past, which debuts May 23, also stars Halle Berry, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence.
