Kit Connor to play Cyclops in Marvel's X‑Men reboot
Cast members so far for Marvel Studios’ ‘X-MEN’ movie: • Kit Connor as Scott Summers/Cyclops • Sadie Sink as Jean Grey • Samara Weaving as Emma Frost
Djavanadon 🍔🍟🥤21I hope it's not another phoenix saga retelling. We really need to move on honestly😩
EpicallyEpicSB6I was kinda hoping they'd keep it this line-up but Claremont/Byrne created Emma Frost, oh well...
acupofwhoa.bsky.social4Hopefully the cast isn’t a weirdly all white cast except for maybe one or two bipoc. The X-men have plenty of mutants that are bipoc, like seriously, please.
bluesynt.bsky.social4Sadie might be the shortest Jean ever 😆
BigBossLuffy3Maybe should PUT A SPOILER WARNING on something like this especially for a movie that is just a week old.
Charlie (MCR5 and selmo are real)3I hope they don't mess up the story
Bob Chipman ("MovieBob")41So, Emma being cast as a priority along with the other two IMO is a big clue for the shape of what this new "X-MEN" franchise is. immediate guess: They're doing 'YA school melodrama, and THIS is our big love-triangle - two nice/naughty girls with similar powers and the born-leader-boy between them.
erin plasma21i mean they're alright i guess. if you're really into white people. who's Storm tho
Mikæla18Honestly you could stop there not even have a villain or plot beyond “Scott, Jean and Emma get stuck in an elevator” and it’d still be a banger
💗💙💜14Who cares where the niggas at? That’s what I wanna see
Camarada Hidalgo14Vou chutar que vai fazer sucesso por conta do aumento de popularidade desses personagens em Marvel Rival, vai atrair uma galera que nunca pegou em um quadrinho.
death cab for starrdiver12Begging the MCU to not ruin Sadie Sink's really impressive Jean Grey performance with another fucking phoenix saga retelling
Dead Game Connoisseur8Emma Frost being ten years older than Scott and Jean...
Mario7I'm sat Probably the next Marvel project I'll actually watch, I've been so burned out for a while
tabi6kit and sadie oh hell yeah!!!
Evalon ⋆˚🩻 𖦹 🦢⋆5We're definitely not gonna get any Emma Frost love triangle because Kit looks like his age, Baby Face McGee (I am also a Baby Face McGee). Idk how to feel about Kit as Scott, but it's a better choice than Cooper, for sure.

Kilo5Every time I look up a 20 something up and coming British actor, I swear
Dr Erika’s (Too) Online, PhD5Three cheers for queer portrayals of Cyclops!
Xjon4Lo que va a cambiar todo después de las nuevas de Avengers...porque si sale el Ciclope de Marsden con Xavier, Magneto y toda la pesca pero después ya no van a seguir siéndolo parece a priori
Melinda Verga's stan account4ahora pongan a Dacre Montgomery como Wolverine para que se besen ellos dos
Iszy J. Fry4Oh this casting [chef kiss]
Aurora3I need them to acknowledge the Punch Dimension, I demand it
Ernesto Olivo 🇲🇽3I ain’t mad at this…
Amanda Rae3Sadie Sink’s husband aw they will be really cute
mikey 🍓 ୨୧ ✩‧₊˚2everyone on twitter is mad af about this but im over here jumping with joy because i see the vision 😭
RB 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️2I mean, yeah... that's Cyclops. Hard to argue. Sarah Halley Finn strikes again.

Ben Williams12Feels like this movie would've been the perfect opportunity to get a cast of unknowns TBH.
Brian Morans5Y’all better get a short king to play Wolverine!
Zach3Ain’t no way Cyclops has always been a ginger, I distinctly remember him having brown hair.
Bueller - Movies and Heists3I checked Deadline I found an article from this morning saying that Marvel is looking at him to play Cyclops But I can't find the article saying that he got cast in the role Can someone link me to that article, so I can share the news with my friends? deadline.com/2026/08/kit-...
Ray🐺1I don't see the vision here. But then again, I have never seen this person in anything. So they may surprise us?
Jason Kirk49Get ready to learn having all your days ruined buddy

James Wood7“The Running up that Hill girl from Stranger Things is Jean Grey” is one of those baffling sentences until you remember Sink is talented and the best performance on that show. Anyone from Heartstopper in anything is also baffling, only this time you gotta remember Connor can’t act.
k_the_okayest5I genuinely could not care less about Marvel fucking up and putting in another useless, untalented, standard issue Hollywood pretty boy that no one will remember in 2 years ruining yet another fucking Scott Summers. Useless. Marvel is going to absolute trash. I'm so fucking over it.
Gust4Amo que esse Scott vai beijar o Wolverine tbm
Berto4Did I want him as Hulking? Obviously. But not mad about this! 👀

Luis on Bluesky4Casting Scott and Emma a week after BND is hilarious
Ben Emerson3They got the lips right.
🦂 Stephen Scorpiono: A'ja vs. K Mitch Tonight! 🍿🏀1Garbage casting. Go ahead and get that X-Men reboot ready.
Corey Brickley137yes!!!! so excited to finally be able to share this early piece of concept art i did for the film. working on this was a HUGE honor
Jonathan Loves X-Men20Ok but how does he look in a jetpack? 🤔 I hope Kit Connor has tried on a jetpack for this role.

Glendon Mellow5Marvel is usually on-point with their casting, and I don't know the actor's work, but for Cyclops I was hoping for a tall, lanky dude, so the nickname Slim would make sense. Even though he's often portrayed like a Captain America body type in the comics, IMO he should be more like Keanu Reeves.
Michael Scally5All signs seem to be pointing to Fiege using the X-Men Evolution roadmap for the MCU... which kind of makes all the '97 coattail riding in the comics as of late particularly short-sighted... #FizzVsComics #XSpoilers
Okay so now we know the X-men reboot is going to have completely different actors making the Loki multiverse excuse for different people playing the role incredibly important and central to the MCU moving forward. So dropping Kang entirely was just completely pointless.
Dylan Macri, Cadhla182, Commissions Open20And I suppose we'll also lose Dafne Keene unless Deadpool gets to keep his own little pocket universe
❤️Brooke Page💜2Isn't the Loki thing timeline branching based multiverse? Isn't that different from parallel realities multiverse?
GᴀʀʀC1Yes... Kang being dropped was indeed pointless... Still though, I hope for the best for actors playing the X-Men.
Nathan Snyder1The frustrating thing is unfortunately every variant of Kang was played by that shitbag so they were fucked with this mess either way
Sapient PC-98 Tapedeck (Cosette)1Eh, he was a shit big bad, not because he couldn't have been made cool but because they fumbled the bag so hard on getting him INTO the phase early enough to feel real, & by putting his first appearance in fucking Quantumania opposite the shittiest, fakest, least threatening version of "MODOK" ever.
Marvel's X-Men film has reportedly found its Scott Summers/Cyclops in Heartstopper and Warfare's Kit Connor. Read more: www.empireonline.com/movies/news/...
Nash89I dunno, he doesn't look like the kind of guy who can shoot heat vision.
David M Willis!25i assume his audition included getting pooped on by a flying butt
Mike Scott-World's #1 Fire Birds Fan9Justice for the forgotten Cyclops. Tim Pocock we hardly knew ye
Edwin Kim8Kinda like when Tom Holland was first cast as Peter Parker, Kit Connor is another young actor I'm not familiar with. But that's beside the point because knowing how extensive Sarah Finn's cast process is, he'll probably be a great Scott Summers aka Cyclops.
cmarston100.bsky.social2RIP to the fancast of him as Hulkling. Lol.
Tides🌌🌊🏳️🌈2This is going to lead to some weird Cyclops/Wiccan fanfics
So, regarding the Cyclops casting news: I've never seen Heartstopper, can somebody tell me if Kit Connor can do the level of "Angrily and Yet Blandly Repressed" a Scott Summers actor needs in order to succeed?
Brightmarsh2He was good in warfare and the wild robot but thats animated and a pretty different skillset from live action roles. I think this like circles around roles Connor has played before. Im excited to see what he does in Alex Garlands Elden Ring
Raúl A. Astruga1He has more the Captain America too-himbo-for-this-world vibe for me, but I think he would show range, if they start with a coming-of-age Cyclops.
