X-Men: 10 Actors Who Could Play The MCU's Cyclops

3. Rege-Jean Page

Page is another young actor who has hit the scene in a big way. He did a great job on Netflix's Bridgerton, and good things seem to keep coming for him. His prominent roles in The Gray Man and the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons movie are signs that he's on his way to becoming a Hollywood star, and thus, Cyclops is a role that could be within his reach.

Page is charming, confident, striking and charismatic as an actor. But, he also brings something else that hasn't been touched on in this article yet, and that's Scott's intelligence/grace under pressure. Of all the actors on this list, Page seems like the name who would capture this best.

Cyclops isn't just a mutant who can shoot optic blasts; he's also a master tactician. Focussing on his confidence with strategy and mission planning could give Scott an invaluable place in the X-Men, finally making him feel important, unlike in the previous films. Thus, giving the role to someone like Page, who could very likely nail such a vibe, would be a move as smart as Summers himself.
