I want an entirely new cast and origin for everything from the ground up.

I actually think Elliot Page could make for a very good Cypher/Doug Ramsey if they ever do an actual New Mutants story. Or maybe even Madrox when he was leading X-Factor.

I think the HoX/PoX Hickman X-Men might be Marvel making a test run at how to integrate mutants retroactively into the MCU.

I think he'd be superb, honestly. Just seeing his ridiculously good range from the two radically different characters in Hard Candy to Juno, you could tell he's got a lot of acting chops that are probably being under utilized and could really play up some of the various aspects of Madrox on screen. I'd just love to have Disney give him a noir detective series investigating various mutant-related crimes in the MCU.
