1. Miles Teller

If ever there was an actor who deserved another chance at being part of a superhero team, it might just be Miles Teller. While he clearly gave it his all as part of The Fantastic Four movie in 2015, we all know how that turned out.

In some cases, it feels like the Fantastic Four is a way to showcase superhero (or villain) potential without actually giving those actors the success they deserve. After all, look what happened with Chris Evans and even Michael B. Jordan.

Teller clearly knows how to be a part of a superhero team up and after his success in the Top Gun sequel, we can’t help but think it is time to give him another opportunity to be a superhero, this time with the MCU. And what better way to do that than with a mutant who can be equal parts funny and serious?

If ever there was an actor who knew how to bring both humor and seriousness, it would absolutely be Miles Teller. He truly knows how to bring a sense of versatility to a role and we want to see him get the credit he deserves for his talent. And honestly, he would be a brilliant addition to the X-Men in any role, but it just feels like the personality of Nightcrawler is the real fit for the actor.
