If Marvel started making films in the 80s, who'd be good enough to play these characters?
 
Spider-Man

Ilan-Mitchell Smith (Weird Science) as Peter Parker/Spider-Man

Molly Ringwald (The Breakfast Club) as Mary Jane-Watson

Emilio Estevez (St. Elmo's Fire) as Flash Thompson

Kristy Swanson (Ferris Bueller's Day Off) as Gwen Stacy

Anyways that's all I can think of so far.
 
I love Molly Ringwald, but Mary Jane is supposed to be model hot, and as great as she is in Sixteen Candles and Breakfast Club, Molly ain't model hot.
 
He might have been a little old for the part in the 80's and a little on the heavier side but Telly Savalas for Charles Xavier?


Tom Selleck without a mustache for Nick Fury?
 
Charlie Sheen as Tony Stark. Although, would he be too young?
 
Cyclops- John Cusack
Jean Grey- Lea Thompson
Beast- ???
Angel- James Spader
Iceman- Anthony Michael Hall
 
Rick Moranis for Mole Man


Bill Pullman...Hank Pym possibly?

First thought that came to mind was that Robert De Niro in his prime would have been an awesome Wolverine.

I want to change my original choice for Charles Xavier I'll put Ben Kingsley up there instead of Telly Salvalas

Has nothing to do with Fox as my choice for 80s Spider-Man, Wilson would just be a good choice for Eddie Brock/Venom.
