1. Booboo Stewart As James Proudstar/Warpath

Booboo Stewart as James Proudstar aka Warpath James Proudstar was born on the Apache reservation in Camp Verde, Arizona. His brother, who James idolised, was recruited by the X-Men but was killed on one of his first missions. James blamed the X-Men for his brother's death €“ particularly Charles Xavier €“ and promised to kill him and avenge his brother's death. He joined the Hellions, a group of young mutants trained by Emma Frost in the use of their powers where he became Thunderbird. He and a small group of his other students took the fight to the X-Men, and nearly succeeded, but at the last minute he couldn't bring himself to kill the Professor who told him how his brother had died a hero's death. Eventually when he joined the X-Force under Cable's leadership he was given the name warpath. His powers have never consistently been told but he possess superhuman senses, speed and strength and has been shown to be highly skilled in both armed and unarmed combat. He is an expert tracker and possesses Apache shaman-like abilities in his ability to fight spiritual beings, awoke in him by Ghost Rider. His first appearance was in New Mutants #16.
