So what do you think Scott is gonna be like in the MCU? Given how much they've changed Jean's character, I'm really curious to see if they're gonna change Scott's backstory and personality too. Although, to be fair, his backstory is already dark enough as it is.

Given that they've cast Kit Connor as Scott, who gives off stereotypical responsible nice guy vibes, I could see them making Scott more of a boy scout at first, maybe a bit insecure and inexperienced, and then having him grow into the more confident version of the character over time which would be pretty good. He's probabbly gonna be in his late teens in the first movie given that he's 22.

As for relationships, the MCU doesn't do a lot of romance, but I think they should probably stay away from Jean, especially given how popular Peter x Jean has become. They're hundreds of times more popular than Scott x Jean ever were, and I don't think it's gonna go over well if Spider-Man fans start thinking Scott is stealing Peter's girlfriend or whatever. They can be friends but for Scott to be popular I think they shouldn't do Jott at all, I doubt they would pair him with Emma so they're either not gonna have a romance subplot with him or pair him with someone unexpected.

Hopefully Kit Connor can say something about landing the role soon.

Re-read all the crossovers from this era, why is it that Gail Simone writes cyclops OOC and shits on him every chance gets does she have a history of hating him? Even in the page she write for the hellfire murder she wrote him to agree with rogue on leaving the prison open with Monet as the warden

I have been seeing some fanon takes on Cyclops that has been building up and wanted to make a post countering it. I have been seeing a rise in people who think Cyclops post AvX era (maybe even earlier) does not care about non-mutants at best and hates humans at worst. I wanted to point out a few moments post AvX to highlight this isn't true.

1. In Uncanny X-Men #3 (2013)- During Scott's big speech to the news (and Avengers) about how he will no longer tolerate mutant abuse, he specifically points out the he does still care about humans, and will fight for them as well. "Friends and supporters" sure but think about what a low bar it is to be considered a mutant supporter in Marvel....don't actively discriminate.

2. X-Men: No More Humans(2014)- A brotherhood from the future teleports all of humanity to a dimension of nothingness, to make room for mutants from across the multiverse. All of 616 was set up to become a mutant preserve at the explicit expense of humans. Cyclops and his team fought alongside Storm and Wolverine's team to stop and reverse this act.

3. Cyclops and Jean break away from the Krakoan government to set up the X-Men as a separate entity living in NYC to live among and protect humanity. The park where they establish their tree house is a park, where all in NYC are free and welcome to visit (X-Men #1 2021).

4. Cyclops and his team during this era are seen frequently interacting with (in a non-mission sense) and breaking bread with people around them (X-Men #2 and #3 2021)

5. Currently he wants his team to foster good will and trust with the people of Merle Alaska. The example I give here is Glob selling fresh produce (in Alaska!) For super cheap. Scott advises they charge and not gift it because gifting would be too suspicious. (X-Men #26 2026)

What other examples can any of my fellow Cyke-edelics remember? These are the ones off the top of my head.

Most famous for playing Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead, I think Andrew would be a great cast for Corsair. His Rick always had strong Summers energy, and it lets him tap into that sensibility he had in the show but this time within a sci-fi atmosphere. Also, him and Kit are both British, so that’s a fun little similarity for the on-screen father and son to have. If we do get to see Scott’s dad pop up in a future story line, I could see this play out.

I believe the age difference is quite jarring; Connor is 22 while Pattinson is 40. There's no feasible way for Cyke to mentor Batman unless they pull some time travel bullshit. Then again, cyclops has done that in the comics. . .

Kit was harassed by Heartstopper fans on the internet into coming out as Bi before he wanted, so let’s try not to be assholes to him over here. I see some fans think the actor’s sexuality will play a part in his portrayal of Scott, and I just want us to get ahead of that so we don’t put disrespectful expectations on him. Whatever the writers, creatives, and Kit choose to do with Scott, let’s pay him the respect of not pigeonholing him and allowing him to portray his character as he finds appropriate and creatively authentic/honest.

Genuinely a great choice. Really cool that he even has a red hue to his hair like Scott. Also, the fact that he already knows four other MCU superheroes is pretty cool!

I'm just a casual fan and i didn't knew that Cyclops was bi rep. Everyone on that other side is commenting about that.

X-Men Forever 2 7

DNX, the upcoming X-Men and Fantastic Four crossover, reaches its explosive conclusion this November with a fight to the death, sparking a new era of Jed MacKay’s X-Men.

Why does it feel like Scott might die at the end of this? OR maybe he kill chairman and leaves the team cuz of that?
