Marvel Films MCU X-Men - Part 4

Not open for further replies.
Uhhh I agree with this. We've had 4 movies with Beast as a member of the X-Men. And unlike other core X-Men, he had a decent role to play.

I think his role was underwhelming, but I get your point.

For me, however, it's more about Beast being a character who's part of this other superhero team and can be developed in other franchises in a way that makes sense. It might not be the case for characters like Colossus, Kurt, Psylocke, Kitty, Gambit, etc...
 
None of these characters exist in the MCU yet. Beast is no more an Avenger than any other X-character.
 
Comic book Beast is definitely unlikable, but TAS Beast needs to be somewhere in the MCU!
Wait, when did my boy Beast become unlikable? Did he do something bad recently? I stopped reading X-Men comics years ago so I'm kinda out of the loop.

But I do agree that XTAS Beast would be a perfect blueprint (pun intended) for MCU Beast.

Cool redesigns that retain iconic colours and motifs but updates each character's look.
 
Really like those designs.

Also, I second those who don't get when the heck did Beast become "unlikeable"?

He's been a whiner since the Utopia era. He's also made some bad choices and hasn't been held accountable for them (displacing the O5 characters, working with the Inhumans, ect).

I don't like the Wolverine or sleeveless Cyclops but the rest are pretty cool. :up: Wouldn't be surprised if we got something like this

This is me saying all the X-Men are my favorites, when in fact I don't care much for Beast.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
Marvel Planning Several X-Men TV Shows For Disney Plus



An x-men tv series would knock my socks off. Like not a grimdark set in the same universe type deal, a proper xmen adventure with magneto throwing things around etc
So much potential here. The MCU might be limited in the number of X-related films they can put out with how much else they have to deal with, but they could give us a show or 2 every year when these are up and running (assuming they are successful).
 
Wow, most of these redesigns are legitimately good.

Replace Angel with Beast and Jubilee with a better female mutant (like Dazzler or Mirage) and this is exactly my ideal MCU X-Men team. These are the characters whose adventures I want to spend the next ten years watching.
 
just 1 x-show a year would be f***** awesome.

in a matter of 4 years we would already have 4 different shows for 4 different mutants, all fleshed out. That alone sounds ten times better than what Fox ever did.

Makes me wonder if this is how we're going to get the X-spinoffs
 
Imagine if Feige plans this:

Movies:
- X-Men
- Storm
- Wolverine
- Rogue

Shows:

- Nightcrawler (with Cyclops and Rogue cameos)
- Kitty Pryde (with Iceman and Colossus as guest roles)
- Colossus (with Ilyana as a main player, and Kitty as guest role)
- Dazzler (with Storm, Kitty cameos)

Would any of you be mad at that?

I'd swap Wolverine with Dazzler but I'd be pretty happy with this.

Now what about the splinter teams like New Mutants, X-Factor, X-Force, Excalibur, Generation X and Academy X?

Also - Alpha Flight and Starjammers

It would be a great buildup to the first X-Men film. Especially if they used some of these characters for cameos in films too ahead of the X-Men film.
 
Whether or not I'd like that set-up depends entirely on the stories.

Going the music route, Dazzler could be an interesting concept for a movie. If Marvel movies are "a heist film...but with superheroes" or "a 70's spy thriller...but with superheroes" then "Bohemian Rhapsody or A Star Is Born...but with superheroes" would be different from everything else they are doing.

Precisely why the idea of Dazzler as a movie is so exciting to me. The first CBM musical. Alison Blaire herself was originally created to lead into a major motion picture and a full-fledged album tie-in, in the early 80s -- but plans fell through between Marvel and the record company that was supposed to produce the movie. But we ended up getting an awesome character and doing a movie would only be the perfect way to honor the original concept of the "Dazzler" character.
 
The thing is...I think Lady Gaga would be the obvious choice for Dazzler since she acts and can sing her butt off and is very, very popular. But...I mean...I'm just not a fan. You'd have to think that she'd be a frontrunner.

I never saw La La Land, but didn't Happy Death Day star Jessica Rothe sing and dance in that? She any good? I know...she's in her 30's...but isn't Dazzler's thing that she was already a famous singer when the world found out that she was a mutant? Maybe not. Rothe was fantastic in HDD, tons of charisma. My point is...one of these superhero universes should make a role for her.

Bella Thorne?

Taylor Hickson (who I adore) sings and is in her early 20's.

Lucy Hale? She's been pretty bad in everything I've seen her in.

Miley Cyrus???? sheesh...no thanks.

What's Brie Larson and Olivia Holt up to these days? Oh...yeah...nevermind.

Funnily enough, Jessica Rothe is one of my top choices for Sue Storm. I think Miley has too much baggage but Bella is an interesting choice. I like the Taylor Hickson suggestion. Might I also throw Jude Demorest ('Star') into the ring. Great actress who leads a show about the backstabbing nature of the music industry. (That means she can sing lol)

Star-S2-Ep3-pic-11-Jude-Demorest.jpg

Who would you cast as Dazzler?
Probably Jude Demorest from Star
 
She’s SO good in Sex Education (and looks like Margot Robbie’s twin) but I’m not sure if for Jean. She seems more like a Rogue type.
