Recasting X-Men: 14 Actors Who Need To Replace Singer's Mutants

6. Dave Bautista - Juggernaut

One of the most embarrassingly memorable moments of X-Men: The Last Stand is Vinnie Jones' risible performance as Juggernaut. Granted, it's only partly his fault, because the script and costume are both pretty inane, but he's also just totally wrong for the part in every way.

Dave Bautista, on the other hand, could play a rebooted version of the character in the new continuity, given that he's a big guy, he can actually act, and can bring enough humour to the role to compensate for how inherently goofy it is.

With Bautista already locked into Guardians of the Galaxy, he might not want to spread himself too thinly, but he'd add some major presence to the screen all the same.
