Bishop movie...?

[dkrook]

Ryan Coogler mentioned that Bishop was another favored character of his. Should Marvel push for a solo movie seeing what he did with Black Panther. Who would this movie star?

[ChildOfTheAtom]

No Marvel should push for Blade and then Storm imo.


Bishop should be a main character in X-MEN for MCU though.

[WhiteQueenEmmaFrost]

I don't think Alt. reality characters should flood the franchise when there are so many that haven't even been given life.

Cable is one thing with Deadpool because they don't seem to be getting into the whole Scott/Maddy crap. Bishop should've left decades ago. There was never a true traitor to the Xmen like it was hyped.

No. Bishop doesnt need a solo movie

[CRaymond]

Bishop is barely a solo character.

That said, there's a big empty spot where male minority mutants should be.

Well yes there was, it ended up being Xavier. That being said there's amazing stories that can be crafted with a character that has enough history to be relevant but can still be fleshed out into way where future writers can place Bishop in a place of prominence in X-books. Far as the point you're trying to make, Blade was known of but was sitting in a dust bin before he resurrected the concept of Marvel movies.

You don't have give him the future angle. He can just be a former cop or military man.

His future backstory is a big part of what makes him interesting. They dont have to do that but removing it removes a quintessential element of the character

[ChildOfTheAtom]

His future backstory is a big part of what makes him interesting imo.

Having Bishop as an actual character on screen with lod etc > future imo

There's always some kinda of excuse why Bishop can't be this or that. The future crap hinders his character

Storm is not getting her own movie... it's too hard to justify the existence of other characters with her as an X-Man, much less out by herself. I guess you'd have to take away her powers or something, but... I suppose it's possible. Unlikely, but possible.

You could say the same for Gambit

[CRaymond]

One of these days I'll share my DOFP retcon that makes Rachel Summers, Bishop, the XSE, Cable, Stryfe, Nimrod, and Ahab all part of the same alternate future context.

There was nothing to fix. Its my words. Obviously its my opinion

Idk I just interpret everything you say matter-of-fact. You're always pompous about stuff

[BBeeryan]

I'm all for a Bishop Movie in the MCU. My first choice for the leading role would be Idris Alba.
