In the comics, Magneto is tall at a believable 6 foot 2, but that wasn't the case on Pryde of the X-Men. Instead, the pilot grew the leader of the Brotherhood into a whopping 6 foot 10. This incredible height puts Magneto at the same size as the show's version of Colossus, and he's nearly the same height as Blob.
Because of this, while Magneto may technically be over 90 years old, he is physically far younger, and has been for some time. At this point, most of Magneto's adventures take place after his age was artificially altered, explaining why he appears to be only a few years older than Cyclops and the other X-Men.
The X-Men (and other mutants) don't seem to age much in the X-Men films; as if the aging process is 20 years slower than Homo Sapiens. That would explain why Magneto maintains his robust physical condition for almost 80 years in both the comics/movies/shows/etc he's appeared in.
Among Earth's most powerful mutants, Magneto's abilities are essentially limitless. He can manipulate all forms of magnetism, summon force fields and shoot electromagnetic pulses that can disable electronic devices.
Yes. To have the hammer in his hand wouldn't and shouldn't ever happen. He's just not worthy of it under the magical conditions set on the hammer as per Odin The Asgardian All-Father. However, his genetic power and ability to control metal and magnetic fields would give him a leg up in countering its power.

Could Magneto beat Superman?
Even if he did, Superman can move at the speed of light. Before he would fall unconscious, he could hit Magneto's force field at the speed of light, multiple times with super strength. There's no way Magneto's forcefields could stand up to that and just like with Wonder Woman, one punch is all it would take.
As seen in certain comics from Marvel such as Black Panther #48, vibranium in its purest form does not respond to Magneto, resisting his powers a rare exception.
Some of Magneto's weaknesses include: He is vulnerable to metal weapons: Magneto's powers are based on his ability to manipulate magnetic fields. This means that he is vulnerable to metal weapons, which can disrupt his magnetic field and weaken him.
Namor was able to run through the entire Brotherhood, including Magneto. Namor's strength and durability allowed him to outlast Magneto's attacks and take him down, before leaving so he could figure out new ways to attack the surface world.
While Magneto has been seriously injured by psychic attacks without his helmet, his helmet provides the wearer with significant protection from telepaths. Due to the way his helmet's circuitry interacts with his powers, some iterations of Magneto's helmet have also given him limited telepathic abilities.
Of all the women in Erik's life, there is none he seems to ever love more than Magda. His first wife, and presumably his first love, from before he even became Magneto, Magda and Magneto were together while he was still known as Max Eisenhardt.
Magneto rips the Adamantium from Wolverine's bones, killing Wolverine, leaving just a severely charred skeleton and an arm of flesh due to his healing factor not working.
Magneto should have been able to take Iron Man down with ease, but when the two fought, Tony Stark gave the X-Men a NEW Master of Magnetism. Iron Man beat the X-Men's Magneto, in one of the most spectacular battles in the "Avengers Vs. X-Men" event.
Most notably, Magneto cannot affect Captain America's vibranium shield, and he cannot affect Black Panther's suit. Magneto has such a refined control of his powers that he can manipulate the iron in people's bloodstreams. They've even showed this horrifying ability in the X-Men movies.
The Hulk may be one of Marvel's strongest superheroes, but one of the most underrated members of the X-Men, Havok, can defeat him in one simple move. Cyclops' brother, Havok, is one of the few Marvel superheroes who can defeat the Hulk in a fair fight.
Storm. Storm is an Omega-Level mutant and one of the most powerful mutants alive. With near-complete control of the elements, she is very much a character who beat Thanos.
The Legion (Personality 005): Self described as "real me" and by Magik as a "God-Mutant". He is able to warp reality to his will and manipulate time. Using these powers he created the Age of Apocalypse and eliminated the Elder Gods of Limbo.
Lets be honest here, most cases the Hulk should easily take this win. Even if the entire battlefield was metal for Magneto to use, it wouldnt really matter, because as you know, Hulk smash. Hulk judy needs to land a single hit on Magneto, and the win is his.
In theory, the Flash can use Magneto's powers to control metal against him, by literally reversing his every move. In the issue, Wally recounts how he was able to deliver the final blow, saying, "Every speedster on the planet draws their power from an extra-dimensional energy force called the Speed Force.
With this knowledge, we can safely say that Magneto's only chance would be directly assaulting Green Lantern or manipulating the metal inside of him. However, Green Lantern can defeat him before he manages that or as he attempts to disable the Green Lantern.
