6. Bishop

Marvel project: Loki

Bishop is from a horrible timeline full of mutant suffering. For example, the letter M was tattooed on their faces. This is how they let the world know who was a mutant. As if that wasn’t enough, they were put into camps, starved, and beaten.

With the Time Variance Authority supposedly keeping the multiverse in check in the MCU, Bishop may take issue with them not protecting his reality. Even if he isn’t upset with the TVA, a younger Bishop could be seen while Loki and Morbius travel around the multiverse. This could be how Bishop discovers time travel as a way to change his fate and save mutants from his future.

5. Magik

Marvel project: Agatha: Coven of Chaos

One thing 20th Century Fox did right was cast Anya Taylor-Joy as Magik. She was a great representation of the character (minus the racist remarks). It’s doubtful that Taylor-Joy will come back as Magik, but that doesn’t mean the character won’t be seen again. In fact, Agatha: Coven of Chaos is the perfect place for her to appear.

It’s unknown what era Agatha Harkness will be in in the upcoming Disney Plus series. However, it doesn’t matter, because magic is something that goes beyond and can manipulate time. Plus, if Marvel Studios wanted to debut a powerful mutant with magical powers, Illyana Rasputin is the way to go.
