27 best Marvel characters that have never appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
By Mark Lynch
Have the X-Men been in a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie?
The X-Men are among the greatest heroes in comic book history. People talk about the Avengers being heroic, but they don’t do it like the X-Men do. They get a pass.
Meanwhile, Marvel’s Mightiest Mutants are fighting for everyone while getting attacked, ridiculed, and disparaged by the people they’re saving. All of that for just being born different. That’s just on Earth. They get the same kind of treatment in space as well and they’ve literally saved the universe. Yet, they keep doing it. Why? Because they’re the epitome of heroes. Doing everything in spite of what’s going on.
This list could have been all X-Men, mutants or their affiliated teams. In fact, we don’t even have to get into the big names like Storm, Cyclops, Jean Grey, or Wolverine. There are a plethora of heroes and villains that deserve to have a place on the big screen. Magneto, Mojoworld, and Multiple Man could have their own projects. X-Force, X-Factor, and Excalibur are teams that may not have huge stars, but combined can make a great film.
Everyone may be waiting on Marvel’s First Family and the Avengers are Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, but the X-Men are going to be the new big thing. They’re too exciting, relatable, and fun to be ignored.
