Another hero we didn't see nearly enough of in Days of Future Past, Bishop is a time-travelling mutant in the Cable mould, and one that more than deserves a spot on the X-Force roster.
Played by Omar Sy for the very first tim in that film, Bishop has been both an enemy and an ally of the X-Men over the years, meaning that he could take on a whole host of roles on the big screen if necessary. We already saw his heroic tendencies (marginally) in DOFP however, so it would make sense to see that trend continue in a subsequent appearance, even if Cable has already taken the badass time-traveller spot on the team.
Again, Bishop was a victim of DOFP in the sense that he didn't get nearly enough attention for a character of his stature. Reintroducing him to X-Force - especially if it takes place in the near future - would go relatively far in righting that wrong.
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.
