My top Psylocke choices for the MCU X-Men

This was really, really hard to narrow it down. There are so many fantastic actresses that I think could portray Psylocke well.

With all the rumors that an Asian female character could be joining the MCU’s X-Men, here are my top five actresses I’d love to see take on Kwannon.

————

Reina Hardesty. A 30 year old Japanese-American actress best known for her roles in Butterfly and It’s What’s Inside.

Natsuki Deguchi. A 24 year old Japanese-Chinese actress and model best known for her roles in The Curry Songs and Drawing Closer.

Miku Martineau. A 22 year old Japanese French-Canadian actress best known for her roles in Crew Girl and Star Trek: Section 31.

Ayaka Miyoshi. A 30 year old Japanese actress and model best known for her roles in Alice in Borderland and Dance With Me.

Camilla Aiko. A 26 year old British-Japanese actress best known for her roles in A Pale View of Hills and Lee.

My top two Sunspot choices for the MCU X-Men

I’ve found two young (under 18) Afro-Brazilian actors that I think could be great options for Bobby if they were to cast him in the next few MCU movies.

—————

Agyei Augusto. A 17 year old Brazilian actor, voice actor and singer known for his role in All the Dead Ones and Esquadrão na Moral.

Miguel Ângelo. A 15 year old Brazilian actor known for his role in A Infância de Romeu e Julieta.

My top 3 Forge choices for the MCU X-Men

Since there’s been rumours that they’re looking at Native American actors I wanted to pick my Forge fancast choices because it feels likely that this will be the character they’re casting for. I narrowed it down to 3 but there were still other good potential options. I wanted to cover a couple of age ranges since we don’t know yet how they’re going to introduce Forge and if they plan to still do the Forge/Storm relationship.

Asivak Koostachin. A 6’2” 32 year old Cree-Inuk Canadian actor known for his role in Red Snow and Run Woman Run.

Tatanka Means. A 6’3” 41-year-old Oglala Lakota, Omaha, Yankton Dakota and Diné American actor known for his roles in Killers of the Flower Moon and The Son.

Joshua Odjick. A 5’11” 24-year-old Algonquin-Anishinaabe/Cree Canadian actor known for his roles in Wildhood and The Long Walk.

My top Gambit choices for the MCU X-Men

Since we officially have 25 year old Inde Navarrette as Rogue I wanted to look for options for Gambit that could play alongside her. I tried SO hard to find actors from New Orleans or Louisiana in general that could work for the role but I could only find one that fits the look but it seems like he’s on the older end being potentially in his mid 30s. I’m putting his grid picture in the comments anyway.

I looked for actors that were between 25-30 and most that I found just happen to be around 29. I would have preferred slightly younger but I wanted actors that I felt could pull of the charismatic charm and presence of Remy. I know that Gambit specifically speaks Louisiana French and that it’s not quite the same as European French but I figured it made sense to mostly find actors that can already speak French and have them work with a dialect coach to master the Cajun accent.

———

Sam Corlett. A 30 year old Australian actor known for his role in Vikings: Valhalla.

Axel Auriant. A 28 year old French actor known for his role in Skam France.

Benjamin Voisin. A 29 year old French actor known for his role in Summer of 85.

Rémi Goulet. A 29 year old Québécois actor known for his role in Distinct Society.

Nicholas Cirillo. A 29 year old American actor known for his role in Outer Banks.

[Fancast] My top 3 Ice Man choices for the MCU X-Men

With the current cast who are confirmed/rumoured being on the much younger side, I figured it might make sense to reconsider my Ice Man fancast (Kit Connor was also my original choice).

Since Sadie is 24 and Kit is 22 I looked for actors between 15-18 to fit with the age gap between Jean, Cyclops and Bobby. I wanted to find really talented actors that would be able to grow with the character and possibly stay with the franchise for years.

My top 3 Nightcrawler actors for the MCU X-Men

I know it’s probably unlikely that Nightcrawler will be in the first movie but now that we’re seeing more roles be cast for the MCU, I wanted to share my top choices for Kurt Wagner in case they do decide to include him.

My top 5 Jubilee choices for the MCU X-Men

I know it’s unlikely we’ll see Jubilee for a while but I wanted to share my favourite Jubilee casting choices in case they decide to bring her in earlier.

I mainly looked for actresses that were under 20 years old since all of these choices were made with 24 year old Sadie Sink as my Jean Grey in mind.

———

Trinity Jo-Li Bliss. A 16 year old American actress known for her role in the Avatar franchise.

Momona Tamada. A 19 year old Canadian actress known for her role in Avatar: The Last Airbender. She also acted as a younger version of Lana Condor’s (Jubilee from X-Men: Apocalypse) character in the To All The Boys film series.

My Top 5 Choices for MCU Cyclops

I’ve seen a lot of talk about Cooper Hoffman being a top consideration for Cyclops and I personally don’t agree with that choice. I wanted to share my five actors that I think could genuinely pull off Scott Summers in the upcoming MCU X-Men.

I focused on talented up-and-coming actors who have started breaking into bigger projects but no major franchise commitments on the scale of the MCU yet. I also looked for actors who fit Scott Summers physically (all are roughly 5’10”–6’3”), are the right age for a young Cyclops, and capture the overall look and presence of the character.

All of these choices were made with 24-year-old Sadie Sink as my Jean Grey in mind, so I prioritised actors that I think would be a believable match in terms of age and overall casting dynamic.

Curious to hear everyone’s thoughts and who you’d cast.

Drake Rodger. A 27 year old, 6’3”, American actor known for his role in The Winchesters.

Brian Altemus. A 29 year old, 6’2”, American actor known for his role in Brilliant Minds.

Michael Bradway. A 27 year old, 5’11”, American actor known for his role in Chicago Fire.

Felix Mallard. A 28 year old, 5’10”, Australian actor known for his role in Ginny & Georgia.

Louis Partridge. A 23 year old, 6”, British actor known for his role in Enola Holmes.

[Live Action] Teagan and Milo with their stunt doubles

I figured this this would be helpful to add here because I saw speculation over people who were dressed as the king and queen riding horses and which actors they were.

If you see characters riding horses during filming then most of the time it’s going to be the stunt doubles, apart from some close up scenes. Milo did do some horse back riding training but you can see here, their stunt doubles look very accurate to the original actors so it will always be safer for the actors to just avoid riding the horses.

[Live Action] Potential king & queen cast after Caitriona Balfe and Elliot Cowan seen filming in Spain

We may have our king and queen!

Caitriona Balfe, known for her role as Claire in Outlander and Elliot Cowan, known for his role as King Henry VII in The Spanish Princess, were both reportedly seen on set in Girona filming for the live-action.

I can’t believe I didn’t think of Caitriona as a casting option for Queen Arianna before but it would be genuinely such a great choice. Elliot Cowan looks like a perfect fit for King Frederic and he obviously already had the acting experience of playing a king previously.
