X-Force Movie: 10 Mutants That Must Be Included

3. Forge

Forge X-Men
Marvel Comics

Despite being a regular feature of the X-Men since his introduction in 1984, Forge is yet to get a live action appearance. That's just wrong, and despite the fact he's been heavily involved in both animation and in games too, not nearly enough X-fans are aware of the character.

Another Native American X-Man, Forge is an army veteran, weapons specialist and combat expert aligned to the X-Men with strong ties to the US government. His abilities are really clever though, with the character being able to fully realise and invent pretty much anything his mind can come up with. It makes him an invaluable member of the team, and, while his time spent with X-Force was a short one, his affiliation with the wider X-Men as a whole provides the base necessary for him to get the nod in live action.

Certainly, one could easily imagine Forge making all kinds of weapons for the team in the film, having already done a similar job in the comics. And besides, he should've been in an X-film years ago. Now's as good a time as any for it to happen!
