Could Cyclops be coming sooner than fans expect? Tye Sheridan opens up about his return as the legendary X-Men leader in the MCU.

The Cyclops was always cursed X Men Films. The original film trilogy focused so heavily on characters like Wolverine, Professor X, and Magneto that the team’s head was left on the cutting room floor. This gave many hope that the soft reboot of Days of future past would give Tye Sheridan a chance to really shine as a character.

However, a mix of muddled priorities and a rapidly sinking ship of a universe left Tye Sheridan severely underutilized during his time in the world X Men Universe. This gave many hope that his version of Cyclops might receive some redemption in the MCU. And with the Multiverse saga coming to an end in the next few years, it really seems like a difficult decision for the studio when it comes to his return.

Will Tye Sheridan return as Cyclops in the MCU?

The idea of ​​the actor returning as Cyclops was brought up in a recent conversation with Screenrant. When asked if there would be a chance for him to return to the MCU as Cyclops, Tye Sheridan admits that he knows of no way to reprise his role as leader of the X-Men. However, he believes there are more stories to tell with his version of the character.

“I don’t know. I don’t think there’s a question of whether there are more stories to be told. I think there are probably still more stories to be told. The question is whether audiences are interested in those stories and whether we feel that these types of films are oversaturated or not, or whether there is a new way to make these films. But yeah, I’m not entirely sure.”

Given that the X-Men’s presence in the Multiverse saga is heavily focused on the original era of films, it’s unlikely that Tye Sheridan or the rest of his reboot cast will have the chance to return to the MCU. However, considering how massive Avengers: Secret Wars It’s not entirely impossible that he makes a can’t-miss cameo as Cyclops in the film’s climax.

Avengers: Secret Wars is currently scheduled to hit theaters on May 7, 2027. Stay tuned for the latest news on the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
