Alan Cumming revealed his return as Nightcrawler in ‘Avengers’ was "really healing" after "terrible" X-Men 2 experience.

In an interview with People, Cumming shared that he just finished filming his scenes for the upcoming film. He said: "I just came back. It was amazing. It was actually really… in a sort of ooey, gooey way, it was really healing and really nice to go back to something that it was a terrible experience when I did it the first time."

"It was actually really great to go back. And especially, I'm 60 years old. I did not think I would be doing stunts, playing a superhero in my 60s. So that was great."

The actor has been vocal in the past about the difficult conditions on the set of ‘X-Men 2’, particularly his long hours in the makeup chair and the alleged misconduct of director Bryan Singer.
