I don't think that X-Statix would work in live action. The effects needed for Venus Dee Milo and Doop would be way too costly to do right. That's not even getting into the large cast with a high turnover rate, the near impossibility of doing a film with a PG-13 rating and the lack of major villains.
I feel like the only way to handle X-Statix is if it's an animated TV sitcom geared toward adults in the same way as Archer, Venture Bros and South Park on late-night cable where you can get away with things like gore, nudity foul language, etc. I'd avoid killing major characters and simply grow the cast. I'd also make it set in the X-Men universe with voice-over cameos from the films showing up every few episodes but mostly keep it self-contained.
Would anyone watch this?
