Forget Spider-Man 4’s Black Cat, I think the X-Men role is much better suited for Sidney Sweeney

Although Sidney Sweeney is fan-cast as Black Cat in the MCU, I think she’s a much better match for one iconic Fatal Fatal at Marvel Studios. X-Men Reboot. Sidney Sweeney, best known for her roles in Euphoria, The Handmaid’s Tale And Anyone but youHas been a popular MCU fan character for quite some time. Sweeney’s Marvel debut in The Laughable Madam Webb Just made theories of her recasting even more prevalent, but while I would love for her to join the MCU, I have a different opinion on which Marvel Comics character she should play.

The most popular fan-cast theory suggests that Sidney Sweeney would be perfect for Felicia Hardy’s Black Cat in the upcoming Spider-Man 4. I wouldn’t be crazy about this choice, because I think Sweeney and Tom Holland would have fantastic chemistry on screen, and it would be great to see a love interest other than MJ in the MCU. however, I don’t think Black Cat is a great enough character for Sydney Sweeney, but I know exactly who she should play insteadAnd this could see her debut as a pivotal and complex character in another huge MCU franchise.

I want Sidney Sweeney to be the MCU’s Emma Frost, not Black Cat

Emma Frost is one of Marvel’s most notable mutant characters

As good a fan cast as Black Cat is for Sidney Sweeney, I think she would make a much better Emma Frost in the MCU. Emma Frost is one of Marvel’s most powerful, notable and recognizable figures, so she would be a fantastic addition to the upcoming mutant-centric storylines. That I expect will kick off yet Avengers: Secret Wars. Emma Frost had three live-action adaptations, but none hit the mark. I can easily picture Sidney Sweeney in this role, though, and portraying such an iconic character would be a brilliant way for her to gain redemption after all. Madam Webb.

20th Century Fox never got Emma Frost right

Emma Frost is portrayed by Finola Hughes, Tahina McManus and January Jones

Emma Frost has had three previous live-action adaptations, two under the 20th Century Fox banner. First seen soap opera star Finola Hughes plays Emma Frost’s White Queen in the 1996 movie, Generation X. The project, which has since become something of a cult classic, failed to capture the imagination of its audience, providing an obscure story for a rag-tag team of mutants led by Frost. Fox did better with the character, but still missed the mark a few times, which I was very disappointed to see..

I shouldn’t be surprised that the 2009 version of Emma Frost has been revealed X-Men Origins: Wolverine was a miss. actually, X-Men Franchise filmmaker Bryan Singer later suggested that this version wasn’t Emma Frost at all, with Tahyna MacManus’ (née Tozi) “Emma” just being a mutant with similar abilities, which I think is a tragic insult. January Jones did a much better job in 2011 X-Men: First ClassBut she still managed to erase all of Emma Frost’s personalityCreating a pretty boring character instead. I think Sidney Sweeney can fix these problems.

Why Sidney Sweeney would be perfect for Emma Frost in the MCU

Sidney Sweeney has proven himself to be an incredible actor

Sydney Sweeney has gone from strength to strength since her breakthrough role as Cassie Howard in Euphoria. The hard-hitting series showcased Sweeney’s remarkable acting talents, as she conveyed drama, intensity and vulnerability throughout, and these qualities would translate perfectly into Emma Frost. More recently, Sweeney has branched into comedy, and continues to produce dramatic performances, and with each new role, I can picture Emma Frost more and more clearly.

Sidney Sweeney certainly not only has the acting talent to portray Emma Frost, the complex and layered villain-turned-hero, but Sweeney also looks strikingly like the mutant from Marvel Comics. Blonde hair and a striking sense of fashion are qualities shared by Emma Frost and Sidney Sweeney, and the latter is also young enough, at 27-years-old, to play Frost for many years to come.. This makes me hope that Emma Frost can be developed gradually, exploring her full transformation from villain to X-Men leader for the first time in live-action.

Sidney Sweeney’s Emma Frost could be central to the MCU’s X-Men stories

Emma Frost’s Marvel stories are barely explored in Fox’s X-Men franchise

Emma Frost is one of my favorite mutant characters from Marvel Comics, so I was severely disappointed that she never got a good live action adaptation. Fox completely underutilized Frost, making her nothing but a boring villain or a meaningless side character. This is not what Emma Frost should be. While Frost began her Marvel Comics journey as the villainous White Queen of the Hellfire Club and the leader of the Hellions, she found herself teaming up with the X-Men several times.and eventually joined the team after Cassandra Nova’s genocide on Genosha.

Not just a brave member of the X-Men, Emma Frost eventually even became a leader of the iconic mutant superhero team. This evolution was never seen in Fox’s X-Men franchise, but I think Marvel Studios has the perfect opportunity to correct this massive mistake in the upcoming MCU X-Men Reboot. Sidney Sweeney is notable enough to take on a role as massive as Emma FrostAnd young enough to play this formidable villain-turned-hero for many years to come, which makes me very excited.
