4. Pixie/Megan Gwynn – Played by Ella Purnell

As we continue to explore a more magical side of the MCU with witches, chaos magic, demons, and more, we can expect to see a mutant like Pixie

make her way onto the silver screen. Pixie possesses insect-like wings that grant her the ability to fly and can produce hallucinogenic pixie dust. She has part of her soul taken from Magic (seen in The New Mutants) in an attempt to create a Soulsword, which causes Pixie’s appearance to alter by adding streaks of jet black into her unique bright pink hair.

Ella Purnell is no stranger to flight or whimsical worlds as she previously played Emma Bloom in Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children, whose power set also included a similar flight skill in her aerokinesis and levitation powers. You can see more of Ella in the recent supernatural/drama series Yellowjackets.

5. Quentin Quire/Kid Omega – Played by Jacob Tremblay

Quentavius Quirinius “Quentin” Quire, known by his current alias “Kid Omega,” is an omega-level telepathic mutant. He has been known to have a brilliant mind on a genius level and can process many thoughts at an extreme velocity at once.

Quentin also can control the minds of others, manifest “psychic” weaponry such as his psychic shotgun, and create his universe in his mind where he has the leverage to imprison others. Quentin is known to be very immature and quite selfish.

Rising child star Jacob Tremblay is a prodigy himself in the industry. He has proven himself with roles alongside another MCU actress Brie Larson in 2015’s drama ROOM and the coming-of-age comedy Good Boys. Now 16, Jacob should be expecting more parts as he gets older, and playing Kid Omega would be an excellent choice for him to show his comedic timing and add the dramatic flare needed for the complexity of the character.
