Artist Imagines “Stranger Things” Kids as X-Men and We Can’t Stop Staring at the Awesomeness!


Over the last two years, the kids of Stranger Things have become the darlings of Hollywood, and many of them have or are going to start appearing in many other projects. Thanks to their already large fan followings, many have begun to look ahead to the future to think about other roles these kids could grow into. Now that rumors of Disney and Fox discussing a deal that would bring the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a reboot may be needed. If so, this fan art puts many of the stars in pivotal roles.

Digital artist BossLogic did a series of X-Men related designs that put the stars of Stranger Things in new roles where they all get superpowers, not just Brown. The results are quite convincing with Brown tapped to play the new Jean Grey, Wolfhard as Cyclops, Gaten Matarazzo as Beast, Noah Schnapp as Iceman, and Caleb McLaughlin as Bishop. Take a look for yourself:

Not only is the art convincing that each star could take on these roles, but the pieces also do a great job at fan casting the stars. The movies have already focused heavily on Jean Grey, Cyclops, Beast, and Iceman, but as pivotal members of the X-Men in the comics, Marvel Studios would surely want to do their attempt at bringing these beloved characters to life in their own way. The Disney/Fox deal is a long ways away from happening, but if it does, casting these kids would be a great choice to reinvigorate interest in the X-Men.

So, what do you think of the amazing art?
