Hey, who wants a Cyclops spin-off movie staring the one and only James Marsden? Yeah, me either.
But you know who does want a Cyclops spin-off starring James Marsden? James Marsden! Seems he’s still a bit miffed at the lack of screentime he got in the Bryan Singer/Brett Ratner X-Men movies and thinks Cyclops is “ripe” for his own spin-off.
You’re a little late James — it’s all about 60s X-Men now, and your prototypical bland mid-90s boy band look just wouldn’t fit in. Besides, X-Men Origins: Wolverine kind of permanently poisoned the X-Men spin-off well. Sorry James, you’ll just have to keep doing uh, whatever you’ve been doing.

I don’t WANT a Cyclops movie per se, but we’ve had 4 movies that were basically “Wolverine and Friends” and one misfire that should have just been Magneto vs. Bacon Hitler. So a Cyclops movie would actually be more of a real X-Men movie.
Besides, Marsden isn’t bad. Ever see “Sex Drive”? Only thing keeping that one afloat.
I’ve been a fan of Mardsen’s Cyclops. He’s always come off douchey enough to nail playing the superhero world’s biggest douche!
Kidding aside, yeah, I would really like an “Original Team” movie (Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Angel, Iceman, and Beast) and would be fine with him being in it.
