10 Former X-Men Actors Perfect For The MCU
8. James Marsden
With the X-Men heading into the MCU, there's already a huge debate on who should take on Scott Summers. Before we get too far ahead of ourselves, let's not forget that the original Cyclops actor received the short end of the stick.
Marsden was killed off-screen in X-Men: The Last Stand because he was also contracted to star in Superman Returns. Though his cameo in X-Men: Days of Future Past at least gave him a better sendoff, Marsden is a talented actor that could easily carry another leading role as a superhero.
A popular pick for Richard Rider, Marsden plays both the classic good guy and arrogant know-it-all beautifully, and is someone who could fill such a role if Chris Pratt meets his end in Guardians.
