The original X Class, the original Brotherhood (plus Blob), their leaders, and Xavier's recruits needed to save his original class from Krakoa. Pietro's cast for the first installment of the rebooted X franchise.

Basic storyline: Xavier and Magneto experience their early years, meet, separate, form their own teams of mutants for different reasons, and clash. Charles Xavier, a telepath, recruits a class of mutants to teach to control their special abilities. Eric Lensherr, the Master of Magnetism, recruits a team of thug mutants, two of whom turn out to be his twin children, to attempt to overpower the humans that have oppressed them (NOTE: Although Fred Dukes is not a member of the original Brotherhood of Mutants, I added him to make an even number of combatants for the battles that will ensue, 5 vs 5). The teams clash several times mostly ending in an X-Men victory. After some teaching of his first class, Professor X loses his original team to the island-being Krakoa. In order to recover them, he must recruit a new team hailing from all different parts of the world. I excluded Nightcrawler because I wanted to introduce him in the second movie.


The Leaders

Professor X- Ralph Fiennes: I see him as a wonderful actor and I think he looks the part.

Magneto- John Stamos: I think, with dyed-white hair, he will look the part. After seeing "The Two Mr. Kissels", the "Uncle Jesse" image had faded completely. The man can actually act.

Xavier's First Class

Scott "Cyclops" Summers- Jonathan Bennett: I know, I know. "itz teh hole meangirls cast!!1!" F U. He looks the part and he is a decent enough teenage-looking actor.

Jean "Marvel Girl" Grey- Rachel McAdams: She can act. The natural red locks definitely aren't a turn-off either.

Hank "Beast" McCoy- Wentworth Miller: "Prison Break" was a good show and I feel like this guy could pull off a genius with some work.

Warren "Angel" Worthington III- Chad M. Murray: He looks like a blond, stuck-up, criminal-turned-hero.

Bobby "Iceman" Drake- Logan Lerman: I like this kid. "Percy Jackson" was sick.

Magneto's "Original" Brotherhood of Mutants

Pietro "Quicksilver" Maximoff- Cam Gigandet: He sucked in "Twilight". Shut up, I know that. But in "Never Back Down", "Pandorum", and "The OC", he can play a good bad guy/ thug. He has the look, too.

Wanda "Scarlet Witch" Maximoff- Lizzy Kaplan: I picked someone who was born the same year as Cam Gigandet (because she and Cam are playing twins) and that looks the part. Again, I know I picked three "Mean Girls" cast members, but it's not like that movie really sucked that bad.

Mortimer "Toad" Toynbee- Shia Labeouf: I think he's a good actor, and the picture I presented makes him look homely and somewhat gross, as Toad should look.

Jason "Mastermind" Wyngarde- David Tennant: Barty Crouch Jr can trick Harry Potter for a year with a single illusion. He can do the same with this character only excluding magic.

Fred "Blob" Dukes- Ethan Suplee: In "Remember the Titans", I was thinking, "HE'S SO FAT! HE COULD BE THE BLOB!" Even though he has lost a lot of weight, he still has a "fat guy face" and he plays a great, stupid redneck.

The Professor's Recruits

James "Wolverine" Howlett- Jason David Frank: Probably gonna get the most hell for this one. Sure he was a power ranger. But he is now an MMA fighter and played one hell of a role as John Stewart in that stuntman biography.

Ororo "Storm" Munroe- Beyonce: Not the greatest of actresses but I feel she looks the part.

Piotr "Colossus" Rasputin- Kellan Lutz: I hope this guy can pull off the accent. He certainly looks the part.

Sean "Banshee" Cassidy- Sean Bean: A genuine actor from the isle of the Brits.
John "Thunderbird" Proudstar- Gil Birmingham: Big, Native American actor. He is a decent actor.

Shiro "Sunfire" Yoshida- John Cho: Needed a good asian actor. He'll be fine.

@Tankgirl- How is Sean Bean the perfect Banshee when he's neither Irish or has red hair and facially doesn't look like him...Bean is Sabretooth END OF.

Not to keen on this cast, especially Tommy and Beyonce as Wolverine and Storm...not digging it

PIETRO @ I like man and kudos for using the ORIGINAL X-MEN and not that BORIGINS 90210 spin-off dude!

Great stuff, luv how you have formatted your castings differently too!

I got my own picks for some, like OWEN for a young MAGS etc, but love your too! Thumbs up but no to Beyonce.

dude beyonce is a terrific actor!! you guys should watch cadillac records if you dont agree.

having said that, she wouldnt be a good pick for storm. but i do like most of the cast good job

good picks for the most part.

drop beyonce for either zoe saldana or gabrielle union.

really like the "power ranger" pick but he's too much of a pretty boy kinda fella for wolverine. he should be more scruffy looking and have a bitterness to him. remember he's been around since the civil war so he has to have that hellish kinda feel and the "green/white ranger" doesn't have that i don't think.

love ethan suplee as the blob. his character on "my name is earl" is fantastic but i always have a tendency to look at him and see him as he was in American History X.

ralph feinnes would be a better magneto than prof. Xavier. and i don't like john stamos as magneto at all. if he were to be involved in this i'd rather see him play Angel.

Pietro@ The Rock could be a better Storm than Berry, but with that being said I like the accent of storm from the cartoon so I can't see Beyonce, Odd enough though I agree she's a decent actress and has a certain toughness about her that I can't really explain so I would like to see her as Wonder Woman, after all she's made of clay so she could be black if they wanted her to be, I like your Blob a lot, I might use that idea when I cast my x-men, made no sense with all the fatties out there to cast a fit guy and put him in a bad fat suit.

Sean Bean is Omega Red!!

I don't mind Beyonce as an actress, but not big on her playing Storm.

Stamos as Magneto? No way man, all wrong.

Lutz isn't tall enough and he's not good enough to pull off the accent.

The others I don't mind though. Nice work on picking some unique choices though.

I agree she's tough but man, she's not...Ethnic? enough what do you think about age for storm if early 30's I like Judi Shekoni or Zoe Saldana, if younger I like Bonnie Henna (my choice) (is a good unknown) or maybe Katerina Graham.

pietro eh? hehehe... NO to Beyonce. Even if you base her "acting skills" on Cadillac records she still bombs... Obsessed, her time to prove herself, and she failed... imho... After Wonder Woman I love Strom next. Beyonce lacks the substance it takes it pull it off. I would go with Aisha Tyler, Naomi Harris, or Gabriel Union as runner ups. Beyonce is just not up to par. She does ghetto parts well but that is about it. I am not saying she is ghetto... just ghettoish imho. I love Storm, even though she was taught to survive on the streets and be a thief Storm holds herself with class..and she is a goddess to the tribe of T'challa... i cant see Bey in this role. cant see Bey doing it... maybe as Vixen. Definitely has that animal appeal (in a good way its meant!).. that energy to her.

Love Stamos but not as Magneto. He is good, for small parts.. supporting actor type deal.. but not Magneto imho. Still love him though. =P
