Warpath is already pretty underused in Marvel's own comics, so it was probably a given that he'd suffer the same fate in the films as well.
Portrayed by Booboo Stewart in 2014's Days of Future Past, Warpath featured briefly in the film's equally underused dystopian timeline where he was promptly killed by an invading Sentinel. The knife-wielding mutant was resurrected shortly thereafter, but neither he nor Blink or Sunspot appeared in the film's final sequence once the future had been reset.
It's a major waste either way, and though there's a chance the character could appear in the upcoming X-Force, with the future of the franchise still in doubt, it's unlikely to happen.
Warpath could've been Fox's new Wolverine. Instead, he ended his time with the franchise with a measly five minutes of screen-time.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
