I say Jean, Cyclops, Storm, Rogue, Beast, Kitty Pryde, Jubilee and Wolverine - but the later in a more limited role at first. Would be pretty cool if they go for majority female team, the comics have a lot of cool female characters.

@WakandanQueen - I wouldn't be surprised if the MCU went in an entirely different direction with their version. Wolverine will be there, but which one I wonder? I also think Kitty should be there, and that it's long overdue. The rest are up in the air. Could Angel be done right? Sure, but I think after the Ooze film they'll take there time with Angel and Apocalypse should they decide to bring them back. Storm is probably a must, but I don't see Cyclops necessarily getting the shaft, no pun intended. I could see Beast not being primary and just a side character. I would love to see Jubilee, but I would love to see Dazzler too. Rogue depends on what they want to do with Carol. I would also love to see Emma, but I don't see her being there right away, and will that involve the Cyclops angle too? Everyone else is up in the air, but I would love to see Sinister and thanks to fan casts I know the guy for the job.

Meh. I just want an actually badass Cyclops. Marsden is cool, but his Cyclops could've been handled much better.

@ModHaterSLADE - I wanted Armie Hammer for Cyclops but that dudes career is DONE and we probably won’t hear from him ever again. So what about Alan Ritchson as Cyclops?
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 4/22/2022, 1:35 PM
@WruceBayne - Tom Hopper is perfect for Cyclops.
ModHaterSLADE
ModHaterSLADE - 4/22/2022, 1:50 PM
@WruceBayne - Would be a damn good choice, but after seeing Reacher I'd like to see him as Ben Grimm. He already has a history doing mo cap work with Ninja Turtles.

Patient2670 - 4/22/2022, 1:57 PM
@ModHaterSLADE - I don't remember Tom Hopper in Reacher. Are you thinking of Alan Ritchman? He'd be a great choice for Ben Grimm.
ModHaterSLADE
ModHaterSLADE - 4/22/2022, 2:17 PM
@Patient2670 - Yeah, I replied to the wrong comment. But yeah Hopper wouldn't be a bad choice. He has a superhero build, and the acting chops.

@CorndogBurglar - Don't get me wrong, i like Hopper, but he's already 37. I myself would prefer somebody mid-late 20s, just for the longevity of it. None of that First Class BS, but somebody who'll be around for 15 or so years without aging out of the role.
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/22/2022, 4:07 PM
@CorndogBurglar - I had to look him up but Tom Hopper would be a damn good Cyclops.
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/22/2022, 4:08 PM
@ModHaterSLADE - I like him for Ben Grimm. I’d be ok with that.
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 4/22/2022, 6:32 PM
@nonserviam - I can understand that. I didn't realize he was that old. But I still think he can pull it off. I guess it just depends on how well he ages.
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 4/22/2022, 6:33 PM
@WruceBayne - He definitely has everything it would take to make a perfectly accurate Cyclops.
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/22/2022, 7:35 PM
@CorndogBurglar - who do you pick for Magneto?
Wait, I gotta get @Waddles , @Origame and @TheDoctor1225 in on this question too. They always have good picks.
Origame
Origame - 4/22/2022, 7:45 PM
@WruceBayne - kinda outside the box, but how about Colin Farrell? He played a very similar role in fantastic beasts, and after seeing him on the batman it shows he can work really well with any extensive make up they might use to age him up. (Honestly this is hard as many of the more obvious picks have either already played the role or have other roles in the mcu).
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/22/2022, 7:48 PM
@Origame - depending on how old they make the core group of X-men I don’t think you’d have to age up Colin Farrell that much. He definitely can deliver on that sympathetic villain role. Good pick.
Origame
Origame - 4/22/2022, 8:51 PM
@WruceBayne - well I think he should be aged up because him being a holocaust survivor is just integral to his character to me. Maybe you can explain he ages slower but he should still be older
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/22/2022, 9:13 PM
@Origame - I thought I read that his backstory was going to be updated because the holocaust was so long ago and they were going to give him another tragedy to experience which mold his views.
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/22/2022, 10:25 PM
@Waddles - gimme Jason Isaacs over Cillian Murphy
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 4/23/2022, 2:10 AM
@WruceBayne - I would say Jasin Isaacs, of Joaquin Phoenix for Magneto.
EMagnusPhoenix
EMagnusPhoenix - 4/23/2022, 2:23 AM
@WruceBayne - I can see a variant of Magneto being played by Idris Elba
Origame
Origame - 4/23/2022, 6:01 AM
@WruceBayne - I thought about it but outside of making it believable he's still active being that old there isn't much of a reason to change it. Just change for the sake of it. And the holocaust is such a perfect origin for him, anything else would just feel less than.
Origame
Origame - 4/23/2022, 6:01 AM
@Waddles - I forgot about Isaac's. Yeah, that'd be a great choice.
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/23/2022, 8:16 AM
@EMagnusPhoenix - there was some talk awhile back about making Professor X and Magneto people of color. I don’t know if that rumor still holds weight or not but if it does then it would be cool to see a Idris Elba Magneto but unfortunately he already played Hemdell so he’s probably out of that running.
WruceBayne
WruceBayne - 4/23/2022, 8:20 AM
@Origame - I’m all for keeping the original origin stories for these characters. You could always say that do to his mutation that he’s aged slower.
Origame
Origame - 4/23/2022, 9:26 AM
@WruceBayne - thats a great way to do it.

19Batman84 - 4/22/2022, 1:14 PM
they should start with the original 5 and do it properly against mageneto and bring in like the blue team in the second one to save the original team after Mr Sinister kidnaps them mainly to get to Jean and Cyclops for their genetics and go from there introducing the world to more and more mutants
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 4/22/2022, 1:22 PM
No offense, but this is awful. No Cyclops? As if Cyclops hasn't been done dirty enough already. Now we're just not including him at all? Come on now.

And this idea about Magneto being the one to form the X-Men and Xavier stepping in after Magneto turns bad? Just.........no.

If they just started with Cyclops, Phoenix, Iceman, Beast, Angel, and Storm (with Prof X) that would work really well for me. Of those Angel is the most dispensable, the others are must be theres, but because I want to see an Angel we love get captured by Apocalypse and turned into Archangel then I kind of want him there from early on.

I do wonder what Marvel is going to do. There are SO MANY great mutant characters that people are going to want to see, they are their own Avengers, they are not like GotG or Fantastic Four. There is just no way to actually introduce all the characters and make people love them just an X-men movies. So I expect them to go hard on giving individual mutants solo movies and a lot of solo series on Disney+. Really explore that world. I just imagine something like a Bishop series and how bad ass that could be. A Storm movie is given and we will see it. Rogue works in either. But because you want to see Brie Larson maybe a movie makes more sense. And let’s see Polaris get some love.

This is an insanely dumb list, why th would you start off with Wolverine but leave out cyclops and jean grey. Exclude wolverine because he's been done to death and start with the og first class team. This list makes no sense at all lmfao.
