POLL: Who Do You Think Should Play 'Cyclops'/'Jean Grey' In X-MEN: APOCALYPSE? POLL: Who Do You Think Should Play 'Cyclops'/'Jean Grey' In X-MEN: APOCALYPSE?

Both last year and last night has seen a number of candidates mentioned as being in the running to play the younger versions of Scott Summers/Cyclops and Jean Grey in Bryan Singer's X-Men: Apocalypse. Of those listed so far, who would you most like to see as the iconic duo?

Cyclops and Jean Grey are two of the most iconic X-Men of all-time, but they never really got the big screen treatment they deserved in the original trilogy. That's what makes X-Men: Apocalypse so exciting; writer Simon Kinberg and director Bryan Singer finally have a chance to make up for past mistakes! Last year, a shortlist emerged which revealed that Ben Hardy (Eastenders), Charlie Rowe (Red Band Society) and Timothee Chalamet (Interstellar) were all being considered for Cyclops. Last night, we discovered that Taron Egerton (Kingsman: The Secret Service), Jamie Blackley (If I Stay), and Tye Sheridan (Mud) might just be the favourites, with the latter possibly a frontunner.

On the Jean Grey front, Elle Fanning (Maleficent), Hailee Steinfeld (True Grit), Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones) and Saoirse Ronan (Hanna) may be in the running. The question now of course is which of these actors would you most like to see in the roles? Here's your chance to let us know, so cast your vote and share your thoughts below! We've included Kick-Ass star Chloe Moretz (despite the fact that she's apparently passed on the role) because you never know what might happen...

All of the above choices look okay to me, but truth be told, aren't they a little old or is it just me?

I really don't think I know any of those actors.... haha

but

I thought Chloe passed on Jean Grey?

I honestly wouldn't be mad if Elle got cast as Jean. I liked her performance in "Super 8". I'm not even familiar with Sophie's work from GoT but everyone seems to be praising her being in the mix so it must be good.

Who's the kid beside Taron?

@DrKinsolving

Right? Unless that news was rumored I guess... but yeah if true Chloe is most certainly out of the mix.

@TheRationalNerd

True, yeah, that's what I heard. I think Chloe is awesome though

But, yeah, Sophie is great on GOT man, she's definitely got chops, I think she's actually going to show even more of her range this season because her character is starting to develop more....

Sophie Turner would be great. And Fox, please anybody but Elle Fanning.

Seeing how Andrew Garfield looks like this now:



...I'd say he's taking the TASM news a bit hard.

Seriously though, you can't go wrong with either Saoirse Ronan or Sophie Turner for Jean Grey. Neither of em look all that much like Famke Jannsen to me, but I'm guessing that's not really at the top of the list of priorities for Fox right now. For once, I would agree with them.
Starfox
Starfox - 1/10/2015, 12:17 PM
I went with Sophie Turner for jean. She won me over already

@EzioKenway1225 Ah that makes sense. I hope it's just for another movie role, because...yikes haha.

Elle Fanning. Definitely Elle Fanning.

haha. I guess Garfield kind of looks like Ben Schwartz. He definitely has the Jean-Ralphio hairstyle in that picture.

@EzioKenway1225

Same here, I really hope they get it. Edgerton coming off Kingsman would be a perfect fit as well

@JoJo1982

Just wondering, do you know if The Wolverine sequel has a confirmed date? It's probably the X-Men film that I'm least excited for right now
