A podcast for true comic book fans
Is the MCU bringing the X-Men back to their roots? βοΈπ§¬
In this clip from the latest episode of Super Hero Speak, we dive into the exciting new rumors surrounding the MCU’s highly anticipated X-Men reboot. Word on the street is that Marvel is going back to basics by focusing on the “Original Five” team, purposefully distancing themselves from the Wolverine-heavy Fox universe.
We break down the rumored roster, discuss how they might handle character origins, and talk about potential young cast members like Stranger Things star Sadie Sink.
ποΈ What We Discuss in This Clip:
The Original Five: Why choosing Cyclops, Jean, Beast, Angel, and Iceman is the perfect way to separate the MCU from the Fox movies.
The Rogue Factor: How Rogue might fit into the story as a student or even as a villain in the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.
The Beast Dilemma: Will Marvel start with a human-looking Hank McCoy to show character progression, or jump straight to the iconic blue fur?.
Iceman’s Arc: Discussing how the MCU might adapt Bobby Drake’s comic-accurate character arc and the importance of modern representation.
Casting the New Class: The strategy of casting relative unknowns in their 20s (with mentions of Sadie Sink) to build a long-term franchise.
Krakoa Storyline Pitch: Could this original team setup lead to a Giant-Size X-Men style rescue mission on Krakoa?.
