MCU X-Men: 10 Characters Who Must Appear (And Who Should Play Them)

Why They Should Appear:

One of Marvel's most classic characters, Namor is nailed-on for an appearance in the MCU at one point or another, and being a mutant, what better way to get him into the MCU than as a part of the X-Men?

The sea-king has been an integral part of numerous stories in the comics, having been an ally of Captain America during the Second World War as a part of the Invaders. Over the years, the Sub-Mariner has even attempted to seduce Sue Storm (far too many times - it must be said), and even gone to war with Wakanda, meaning that there are plenty of threads that Marvel's writers could draw on for his on-screen depiction.

Who Should Play Them:

Ideally, Zachary Quinto would be cast as Namor, with the man practically being the spitting image of the character, and a pretty great actor regardless.
