Assuming that the planned movie, <b>The Mutants</b> is not specifically gathering the team and is, for example, more focused on the characters of Xavier and Magneto and the emergence of the X-gene, this proposal would act to bring the initial team of X-Men together. <br> <br> With Marvel Girl, Angel and Iceman already recruited to Xavier's school, alongside his own son, David (ultimately Legion), the narrative would focus on the gathering of the school's final recruits: Cyclops, Beast and Dust. <br> <br>The latter of whom is also being targetted for recruitment by Magneto, who is forming his own following. This will lead to obvious conflict between the two factions, however ultimately it will be Legion who poses the biggest threat and the two sides come together to overcome him. <br> <br>Post-credits stinger would see the green light given to the Mutant Registration Act and the mass production and deployment of the Sentinels.
