7. Emma Frost

Emma Frost had a bad debut in X-Men: Days of the Future Past. She barely had any screen time. Nowhere near enough to really get into how powerful or arrogant she truly is. All we found out is that she’s a telepath who can turn her skin into diamond and uses sex as a weapon.

Emma Frost is so much more than that. She can be one of the most creative people when it comes to using her powers. In Astonishing X-Men, she used her powers to make two henchman vomit uncontrollably anytime they heard the words parsley, intractable, and longitude. She wasn’t always like this. In fact, she wasn’t always blonde.

Emma Frost does come from a wealthy family. But she wasn’t always the confident and manipulative person she is today. She was insecure and intimidated by her peers. When she was offered her father’s fortune, she walked out and decided to make her own way. Emma’s origin from riches, to rags, to power and wealth would be interesting to watch unfold in a Disney Plus series.

There are parts of her life before, during, and after her time with the Hellfire Club that are worth talking about. Even better is that she doesn’t have to be part of the X-Men. There could be an arc where she opens up the school in Massachusetts like she did in the comics. Emma Frost’s story has the potential to be a big time hit.
