As soon as the news hit, Marvel fans began asking who might portray the leader of the X-Men, Cyclops, who is famously involved in a decades-long love triangle between Jean and Emma. In case you’re fuzzy on X-Men lore, Cyclops is the guy who wears the sleek visor to control his power of optical lasers. Next to Wolverine, Cyclops is without question one of the most important heroes to cast for Marvel’s imminent X-Men reboot. Cyclops may not be the most popular X-Men member, nor does he have the coolest powers—though his eyewear will never not be sick—but he is central to the X-Men’s juiciest drama. That’s how messy the X-Men are, and the MCU is about to finally put that all on the big screen.
