Fan CastingMCU Phase 10: X-Factor

Following the stinger of Uncanny X-men: Second Genesis, and a number of hints through the various X-mini series (Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Thunderbird), Val Cooper finally realises a Government-sponsored mutant team, led by Alex Summers.

The team will include Polaris, now poached from Department H in the MCU (following her appearance in Wolverine), as well as Northstar, who is transferred in to replace the deceased (and now over-aged Quicksilver); similar powers and temperament make this a fairly seamless replacement. The Magneto ties are now pretty much nullified.

Plot TBC, however Genosha, Random and either the Acolytes, Dark Riders or Mutant Liberation Front (led by someone other than Stryfe) likely to feature.
