XMenTV looks at 16 mutant characters from the X-Men world who would be perfect to show up on The Gifted. X-Men TV: 16 Uncanny Mutants We’d Like To See On The Gifted

#14. Malice

The joy of Malice is that an actor wouldn’t necessarily have to be cast for the role – Malice possesses the bodies of others, which is an ability that would be a TV writer’s dream if they want to do a behavior change-type story. See the 10 seasons of Smallville if you don’t believe us. Malice also has a tie to the Lorna Dane character as she and Lorna were completely bonded for a time in the comics, in which Malice was part of Mister Sinister’s Marauders.

#15. Jamie Madrox, The Multiple Man

Yeah, he appeared in X-Men: The Last Stand where he was played by Eric Dane, but is that even canon anymore?

Jamie Madrox with his ability to duplicate himself would be fun to see on TV… and his adventures as a mutant private investigator would be fun as their own show, too, if only FOX hadn’t already aired a show called X-Factor. Either way, again, a power that is attainable on a TV budget, that would be something seen with wonder by the Strucker family.

(Although they’re not on this list, Alpha Flight members Northstar and Aurora might also be interesting to see, if only so that the young siblings of The Gifted can see another pair of siblings)
