I also agree, they should try and avoid characters who have had plenty of spotlight. I also don't think they should go with the O5 either. I think something similar to the Ultimate line up would work. I'd want young adults, 16-25 on the team. The team still needs to be recognizable as X-Men (for general public) plus a break from Wolverine. If the rumors of Captain Britain /Black Knight are true, I believe Betsy will be established there first.
Cyclops, Storm, Jean, Jubilee, Iceman
- You get diversity in Storm and Jubilee, while also making sure you DO something worthy of these characters. You have Iceman for a potential LGBT story line. You have Cyclops and Jean as OG members.
- I actually really think a POC to play Beast or Angel would be great, but Beast has been in 4 of the Fox movies, and Angel is a meh cinematic character anyways.
