A close friend of Charles Xavier and a co-founder of the X-Men. A brilliant scientist, Beast's mutation leads him to be covered in blue fur and have heightened strength and agility. He develops the technology that the team requires to carry out missions.
The tropes listed below apply to Beast up to ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''. For tropes applying to Beast after the events of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', see the X-Men (New Timeline) page.
----
* AgeLift: Quite a bit older than Cyclops and Jean, even without getting into ''First Class''. While Beast was the eldest of the first students in the comics, he was only in his 30s in [[ComicBookTime the 1990s]].
* BeastMan: Duh.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Pressing his BerserkButton might lead to him strangling you. Jekyll and Hyde indeed.
* CoolOldGuy: Much older than Storm and Jean, but [[BadassGrandpa as destructive as Wolverine]].
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: According to the tie-in material for ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he gets [[spoiler:dragged from his home and murdered by a mob of mutant-hating humans akin to the "Friends of Humanity" from the 90's animated series.]]
** Doubles as a CallBack if you're watch the prequel before watching the main X-Men trilogy.
* EarlyBirdCameo: He appears briefly on TV in the bar in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* GentleGiant: Huge and animal-like, but on the good guys' side.
* GentlemanAndAScholar: He's very friendly, prefers to avoid conflict, and truly comes out of his shell when in his comfort zones, such as discussing science or assisting with the other students.
* OncePerEpisode: In every movie where he is a prominent character, we see him hanging upside down.
* TheSmartGuy: He's incredibly intelligent and a brilliant scientist who has invented most of the nifty tools and gadgets (X-Jet, Cerebro, etc.) that the X-Men use.
* TimeShiftedActor: An older actor was cast for ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', and a younger thespian took over the role for the movies which are set in the 20th century.

* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', thanks to a CosmicRetcon.]]

* TheCameo: [[spoiler:She greets Logan in the AlternateTimeline of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.]]
* ColorCodedCharacters: While not in her X-Men uniform, she often likes to dress in red clothing.
* CompositeCharacter: After the Beast was removed from the script for ''Film/XMen1'' movie due to budgetary concerns, elements of his character were grafted onto her. Namely, she takes his place as the team's medical and scientific expert, and scenes written for Beast ended up being given to her.
* DeathActivatedSuperpower: Once an entire lake falls on her at the end of ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', she gets stronger and more dangerous as shown in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* DudeMagnet: Scott and Logan are in love with her.
* FaceHeelTurn: As the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', she betrays the X-Men by vaporizing [[spoiler:Scott and Xavier]] and joins the Brotherhood.
* FieryRedhead -> EvilRedhead: The former for ''Film/XMen1'', ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', [[spoiler: ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'']] and ''Film/XMenApocalypse''. The latter as the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Wolverine falls for her.
* HeroicSacrifice:
** She accomplishes this in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', when the Blackbird is frozen at Alkali Lake with the dam about to burst in mere minutes, she steps off the jet and uses her now heightened telekinesis to break the ice and allow the jet to lift off, at the same time psychically restraining her teammates to keep them from stopping her. [[spoiler:She frees the jet seconds before she is seemingly crushed beneath tons of rushing water.]]
** Having survived this in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' but also becoming [[spoiler:the Phoenix]], she twice regains her sanity long enough to beg [[spoiler:Logan/Wolverine to kill her]] so she won't kill anyone else. He finally relents at the movie's climax and [[spoiler:impales her on his claws.]]
* HospitalHottie: She is a medical doctor who is engaged to Scott Summers, and this doesn't dissuade Logan in the slightest from pursuing her.
* ICannotSelfTerminate: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', she asks Wolverine twice to kill her as she senses [[SuperpoweredEvilSide the Phoenix]] taking over. [[spoiler:The second time, the request is fulfilled]].
* JediMindTrick: Is able to trick the mind of her observes so they can't look at her or anyone she shields.
* KillTheOnesYouLove: [[spoiler:Scott Summers and Professor X in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.]]
* MindOverMatter: She has similar rules as Xavier because he's her mentor.
* MsFanservice: In ''Film/TheWolverine'', she's only seen in a low-cut silk nightgown.
* OfficialCouple: With Scott Summers. While not explicitly mentioned in any of the movies, she is described as his fiancée in promotional materials. Doesn't stop Logan from having hots for her.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: [[spoiler:"Haunts" Logan in ''Film/TheWolverine''.]]
* PersonOfMassDestruction: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', the Phoenix effortlessly vaporizes hundreds of human soldiers and Magneto's mutant followers.
* PowerFloats: She is able to levitate when her Phoenix persona is dominant.
* PowerLimiter: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', not to mention in the [[ComicBook/{{X-Men}} original comics]] it was based on, we learn that Professor Xavier placed a mental block in her as a child, to keep her more extreme powers from manifesting.
* PsychicPowers: Among the X-Men, she is the only other telepath besides Professor X.
* RedHeadedHero: Played straight in the first two X-Men movies, but she defects in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' because of her SuperpoweredEvilSide.
* {{Seers}}: Downplayed; she can occasionally foresee a disastrous event, although the details can be vague.
** ''Film/X2XMenUnited'': After being briefly overwhelmed by her telepathy, she tells Scott that "something bad is supposed to happen."
* SanitySlippage: Why Xavier had neutered her mental powers to keep the Phoenix hidden. And once she's unleashed...
* SplitPersonalityTakeover: The Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''. Its awakening destroys her sanity, and because it is a PersonOfMassDestruction.
* StatuesqueStunner: In quite an amusing way, since the comics Jean is a measly 5'6", but Creator/FamkeJanssen is tall enough to surpass James Marsden (leading to [[ScullyBox some on-screen trickery to hide the fact]]).
* TeamMom: For X-Men, especially to the students. Best shown in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* {{Telepathy}}: Almost to Xavier's levels.
* TimeShiftedActor: Played by three different actresses depending on the character's age.
* WalkingWasteland: The Phoenix, as shown in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', is capable of projecting an aura of psychokinetic energy that literally disintegrates anything and any'''one''' caught in it. This is quite graphically shown during her VillainousBreakdown towards the film's climax, where she starts unconsciously vaporizing dozens of humans and mutants as part of her rampage.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: In her manifestation as the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''. Although it is explained that she was already mentally unstable as a girl and her massive powers had to be reduced for her own good and that of everyone around her by putting mental blocks into her psyche. When these were removed, she started killing people with her mind.[[note]](This is actually closer to the original Phoenix story than the later comic and adaptation stories that portray Jean as having been TouchedByVorlons; see the Comic Books section above.)[[/note]]
* WomanInWhite: Her role in ''Film/TheWolverine''.
* WomanScorned: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', after being rescued by the X-Men, she tries to sex Wolverine up. He refuses. Cue SuperpoweredEvilSide taking over.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.

%%* BadassTeacher
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', thanks to a CosmicRetcon.]]
* BlessedWithSuck: He must ''always'' cover his eyes with a ruby quartz lens, otherwise he might accidentally kill someone.
* TheCameo:
** ''Film/XMenOriginsWolverine'': As an adolescent, he's of the mutants targeted by Stryker. His power is copied and put into Weapon X. Ironically, it also ends up destroying most of Three Mile Island as well.
** [[spoiler:''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'': He's alive and well in the AlternateTimeline.]]
* CrashIntoHello: Meets Jean this way in ''Film/XMenApocalypse'', but can't actually see her due to wearing a blindfold at that time.
* CoolShades: Justified--he's always wearing them because they keep his particular mutation in check.
* DeadpanSnarker: Frequently, but ''especially'' around Logan, resulting in SnarkToSnarkCombat.
* DemotedToExtra: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', though [[RealLifeWritesThePlot there's a reason]]. This started happening even in [[Film/X2XMenUnited the second film]] where he was captured fairly early on and didn't come back until the end.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Despite acting as the team's field leader and, within the regular comic series, their linchpin since inception, he's quickly killed off-screen within the first 30 minutes of ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' by his newly resurrected fiancée, Jean Grey. As though that wasn't bad enough, his death barely registers with the rest of the cast later on in the film, with only a brief mention by Professor X who doesn't seem overly perturbed by the loss of his surrogate son]].
** [[spoiler:To some of the general public, his anti-climactic death might not have been that big of an issue as his screen time got shafted in the [[Film/XMen1 previous]] [[Film/X2XMenUnited two]] films in favor of Wolverine, who acted as the series' cinematic alpha hero. However, for fans of the comics, the death was also a slap in the face of sorts since the film's plot was heavily influenced by the comics' extremely well-regarded "Dark Phoenix" storyline that focuses on Jean and Scott. Within the context of ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', that story became a secondary plot thread, and Wolverine was substituted in as the romantic/heroic lead in light of Scott's less than stellar death]].
* EyeBeams: When his eyes are uncovered, they shoot red beams uncontrollably.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: While not actually foolish, he's the rebel of the Summers brothers, while Alex, being older, is the more responsible one.
* HeartbrokenBadass: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' after Jean's "death".]]
* HellBentForLeather: As an adult, he is frequently seen with a black leather jacket.
* KnightInSourArmor: No matter how much of a boy scout Wolverine thinks he is.
* TheLeader: Of the X-Men in the first three films, though he spends most of the second PutOnABus and [[spoiler:dies early on in the third]].
* NeverFoundTheBody: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', his body is never found after his death.]]

->'''Played By''': Creator/AnnaPaquin
->'''Film Appearances''': ''Film/XMen1 | Film/X2XMenUnited | Film/XMenTheLastStand | Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''
A mutant who can absorb any person's memories and abilities by touching them. As she cannot control this absorbing ability, Rogue can easily kill anyone, and thus is unable to be physically close to people.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Unlike the Rogue of the comics and most other adaptions, she ends up at Xavier's school from the very beginning and is never a former member of the Brotherhood. She never has to undergo a HeelFaceTurn, retroactively or otherwise, because here she was a Face to begin with.
* TheArtifact: There was really no point in keeping her around after the [[Film/XMen1 first movie]] (when Magneto needed her to power his machine). The only useful thing she did after that was stop Pyro's rampage and drive the X-Jet to get the members back--nearly crashing the thing, but that's a detail.
* BadPowersGoodPeople: As she doesn't have her comic book counterpart's HeelFaceTurn backstory, the filmmakers turned her into a sweet girl who sucks the life force (and mutant powers) out of anyone she touches.
* BlessedWithSuck: Her superpower doesn't allow her to touch the ones she loves.
* BroughtDownToNormal: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', [[spoiler:she willingly takes the cure for mutants, although the film's final scene where Magneto slowly regains his power proves that the cure is not permanent]].
** There is an alternate scene where [[spoiler:Rogue doesn't take the serum]].
* CantHaveSexEver: Or even kiss someone ever. It tends to be hazardous to their health.
** In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', multiple characters point out the inherent problems faced by Iceman and Rogue.
* CompositeCharacter: In regards to the animated series, Movie!Rogue is a mix of Rogue and Jubilee.
* DamselInDistress: In ''Film/XMen1'', she was [[spoiler:kidnapped by Magneto for his machine]].
* DemotedToExtra:
** She had fairly large parts in [[Film/XMen1 the first]] and [[Film/X2XMenUnited second movies]], but her storyline in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' remotes to her being jealous of Bobby and Kitty and [[spoiler:taking an apparent cure]]. Part of it was also because Creator/HalleBerry didn't like Storm's comparatively smaller role and demanded a larger part. But objectively speaking they both were shafted.
** In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', she only appears in a non-speaking cameo and doesn't even get a close-up. This is because all her other scenes were cut out and then restored on ''The Rogue Cut''.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Everyone calls her Rogue. Marie is only used twice in the entire franchise.
* FirstGrayHair: In ''Film/XMen1'' she gets her Skunk Stripe not from age, but [[LockedIntoStrangeness as a result of being used to power Magneto's machine]]. She is asked whether she's considered dyeing it, but replies that she actually thinks it looks kind of cool, and wears it like a battle scar.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: This is why in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', [[spoiler:she decides to take the cure; however, one alternate ending shows her not taking it, and holding hands with Bobby wearing gloves]].
* InformedAbility: ''Film/XMen1'' talks about, but never shows the mental aspect of her power where she picks up memories and personality fragments from a person she touches in addition to the person's strength/ability. In a scene near the end, Jean says she picked up some of Logan's personality traits, but they're gone by the next scene. In the later films, she seems to gain some measure of control over her powers, which might explain why she doesn't fear losing her mind anymore.
* LockedIntoStrangeness: She gets her white streak because of Magneto's attempted power-transfer toward the end of [[Film/XMen1 the first film]].
* OfficialCouple: With Bobby Drake are in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''. They are in the early stages of a romantic relationship, and their challenge is dealing with her mutant ability, as she can kill someone with a prolonged touch.
* PowerParasite: Her power involves sapping life energy and powers from those she comes into contact with. [[BlessedWithSuck Whether she wants to or not.]]
* PragmaticAdaptation: Rogue is unable to fly, has no fighting/combat abilities, and does not have super strength or invulnerability. This is because, unlike in the comic books, she has none of the abilities that she aquired from Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers).
** That's because they [[ScrewedByTheLawyers don't have the rights]] to use ComicBook/MsMarvel.
* TheRunaway: In ''Film/XMen1'', she runs away from home after her power manifests itself while kissing her boyfriend, causing him to have a seizure and fall into a coma for three weeks.
* SkunkStripe: In ''Film/XMen1'', she acquires her signature white hair streak after her near-death experience in Magneto's apparatus. She decides it looks good enough to keep.
* VampiricDraining: Through touch.

A student at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters who takes a liking to Rogue. He can change temperatures to subzero degrees and use the moisture in the air to create ice.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: The movie version is much sweeter and more mature than his comic book counterpart's JerkWithAHeartOfGold[=/=]ManChild persona.
* AgeLift: Inverted; he's the same age as Rogue, whereas his comic counterpart is closer in age to Cyclops and Jean.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:He is alive and well in the AlternateTimeline of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.]]

* MundaneUtility: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', when Logan wants a cold drink, he gives a Dr. Pepper to Bobby, who uses his powers to chill it.
* NiceGuy: He is one of the nicest mutants.
* OfficialCouple: He and Rogue are this in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''. They are in the early stages of a romantic relationship, and their challenge is dealing with her mutant ability, as she can kill someone with a prolonged touch. In ''The Rogue Cut'' of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he is Kitty's boyfriend, [[spoiler:but when an AlternateTimeline is created, he continues his original relationship with Rogue]].
* OnlySaneMan: He is down-to-earth and seems to have a good head on his shoulders.
* PrettyBoy: His dainty facial features quickly communicate to the audience that he's a good-hearted person. This is especially true in the first movie, where he was only a minor character, but viewers were able to tell right away that "the cute guy" is sincere when trying to befriend Rogue. Moroever, being forced to abandon his family in the second film is more painful when his expression is very much like a puppy dog who has just been kicked.
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', the rule-abiding, NiceGuy Iceman juxtaposes the rebellious, {{Jerkass}} Pyro. At the museum's food court, John is being rude to a young man who asks to borrow his lighter, and Bobby tells his friend to knock it off, plainly disapproving of John's annoying behaviour. When the police order the mutants to get on the ground, Drake immediately obeys, but Allerdyce attacks the officers with giant fire balls.
* SiblingRivalry: Implied, since his brother Ronnie calls the cops claiming that Iceman and the others are holding his family hostage soon after finding out he is a mutant.
* TookALevelInBadass: ''Film/X2XMenUnited'' and ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' have him upgrading from student to X-Men. In the climatic battle of ''The Last Stand'', he finally goes into his full ice form. By the time of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he has taken several more levels, including the debut of the iconic ice slide from the comics.
* WellDoneSonGuy: As his visit to his parents shows.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: He and Pyro were friends in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', but are adversaries in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: After Stryker's raid on the school in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', Bobby, Rogue, Logan and Pyro stopped by the Drake family house in hopes of regrouping, which in the process revealed Bobby's mutant abilities to his parents. His ''own brother'' calls the police and reports them as a threat despite the mutants not harbouring any ill intentions. After Pyro stupidly attacks the officers in the standoff that follows, Bobby is forced to flee with the others knowing he can never come back.

* BadassAdorable: She totally pwned [[Film/XMenTheLastStand The Juggernaut]], [[MemeticMutation bitch]]!
* CompositeCharacter: Rachel Summers's role in [[Comicbook/DaysOfFuturePast the original comic]] is given to her in ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.
* CuteBruiser: This cutie even made ''The Juggernaut'' her bitch!
* DeadlyDodging: Used against Juggernaut in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', as she tricks him into crashing into a wall behind her; due to their powers being temporarily nullified by Leech, he's promptly knocked out.
* {{Determinator}}: In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', she must keep the link open, is at one point stabbed by Logan when his present body reacts violently to mental trauma in the past. And due to how time runs concurrently in the past and present, it's implied that it takes a few days before Logan and co. can properly stop Mystique, which means that she is slowly bleeding out and can't sleep for that period.
* FanservicePack: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' while wearing her X-Men uniform.
* IndyPloy: To take down Juggernaut, Shadowcat goads him into charging at her and Leech. Leech's power nullifies the Juggernaut's, and when he slams into the wall he gets knocked out.

* BadassLongcoat: Wears this in most of ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:By Stryker in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.]]
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He was a major character and a potential love interest for Storm in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', but he didn't appear in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' because actor Creator/AlanCumming found the make-up and prosthetic process grueling and refused to return to it without Creator/BryanSinger. Cumming can be seen in the behind-the-scenes footage for ''Film/X2XMenUnited'' already stating that he never wants to go through the ordeal again. The video game based on the films which takes place between the two movies explains that he, a peaceful man, went abroad to distance himself from the X-Men's violent lifestyle.
* CircusBrat: He spent most of his life with the Munich circus before he was [[Film/X2XMenUnited kidnapped by Colonel Stryker]].
* CoveredInScars: He is covered, from his pointy ears to all four of his toes, in rather artistic-looking raised scars. They're self-inflicted; apparently, he felt the need to punish himself for... something. He seems to be a bit of a [[ExtremeDoormat harmless milksop]], so it's somewhat baffling and/or depressing to think about what he could possibly have to feel so guilty about. It could be related to the fact he's a devout Catholic.
* LightningBruiser: Even faster as he teleports.
* TheMagnificent: The Incredible Nightcrawler. He hasn't particularly let it go to his head, possibly because he gained the title as a circus acrobat, but he'll still drop it in occasionally.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Played with. He has a mouthful of fangs that were something between human-like and shark-like, rather than merely pointed eyeteeth as in the comics. Fortunately he's a pretty cool guy [[spoiler:when he's not under mind control]].
* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: The only character to avert this.
* OneOfTheKids: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', he was excluded from the planning session along with the younger X-Men.
* PluckyComicRelief: He provides some of the more amusing moments in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* PutOnABus: He didn't appear in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', with no explanation given. (The in-universe reason appears in ''X-Men: The Official Game'' where Nightcrawler leaves due to the X-Men's missions clashing with his peaceful nature. The RealLife one was Creator/AlanCumming refused to return without Creator/BryanSinger, especially since he was not fond of the torturous make-up sessions. In one of the behind-the-scenes featurettes, he readily admits that he doesn't think he could come back and go through it again.) He returns in ''Film/XMenApocalypse'', but that film is [[spoiler:set in an AlternateTimeline.]]
* RaisedCatholic: Is a devout Catholic who questions if his demonic appearance is a curse from God for some misdeeds that he must atone for, to the point of tattooing crosses and such.
* ReligiousBruiser: Even reaches TheAtoner levels in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* RunningGag: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', every time he meets someone new, he ''has'' to introduce himself with a long speech... and gets cut off nearly every time.
* SelfHarm: Implicitly where all those scars came from.
* ShipTease: With Storm in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* TeleportSpam: His attack on the White House in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', where he's kicking, throwing, punching, and just beating the crap out of every agent from every angle, with the last one in glorious slow motion.
** Then there's ''Film/XMenApocalypse'', where his teleportation gets used to its maximum potential. His fight with Archangel is particularly an impressive display of [[PerfectlyCromulentWord teleportmanship]].
* ThouShaltNotKill: Given his religiousness...
* TimeShiftedActor: He is portrayed by two different actors: one as an adult and the other as an adolescent.
* TokenReligiousTeammate: He is a devout Catholic.
* WhatBeautifulEyes: His irises were yellow in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', but they are rimmed with red in ''Film/XMenApocalypse''.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: And skin!

A close friend of Charles Xavier and a co-founder of the X-Men. A brilliant scientist, Beast's mutation leads him to be covered in blue fur and have heightened strength and agility. He develops the technology that the team requires to carry out missions.
The tropes listed below apply to Beast up to ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''. For tropes applying to Beast after the events of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', see the X-Men (New Timeline) page.
----
* AgeLift: Quite a bit older than Cyclops and Jean, even without getting into ''First Class''. While Beast was the eldest of the first students in the comics, he was only in his 30s in [[ComicBookTime the 1990s]].
* BeastMan: Duh.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Pressing his BerserkButton might lead to him strangling you. Jekyll and Hyde indeed.
* CoolOldGuy: Much older than Storm and Jean, but [[BadassGrandpa as destructive as Wolverine]].
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: According to the tie-in material for ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he gets [[spoiler:dragged from his home and murdered by a mob of mutant-hating humans akin to the "Friends of Humanity" from the 90's animated series.]]
** Doubles as a CallBack if you're watch the prequel before watching the main X-Men trilogy.
* EarlyBirdCameo: He appears briefly on TV in the bar in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* GentleGiant: Huge and animal-like, but on the good guys' side.
* GentlemanAndAScholar: He's very friendly, prefers to avoid conflict, and truly comes out of his shell when in his comfort zones, such as discussing science or assisting with the other students.
* OncePerEpisode: In every movie where he is a prominent character, we see him hanging upside down.
* TheSmartGuy: He's incredibly intelligent and a brilliant scientist who has invented most of the nifty tools and gadgets (X-Jet, Cerebro, etc.) that the X-Men use.
* TimeShiftedActor: An older actor was cast for ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', and a younger thespian took over the role for the movies which are set in the 20th century.

----
* ActionGirl: Fights both up close and [[MindOverMatter at a distance]].
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: In the original trilogy, she flirts with the Creator/JamesDean-esque Logan.
* AxCrazy: As the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', thanks to a CosmicRetcon.]]
* BadassTeacher: And is one of the Xavier Institute's finest instructors.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: By ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', she becomes a PersonOfMassDestruction.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: As the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* TheCameo: [[spoiler:She greets Logan in the AlternateTimeline of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.]]
* ColorCodedCharacters: While not in her X-Men uniform, she often likes to dress in red clothing.
* CompositeCharacter: After the Beast was removed from the script for ''Film/XMen1'' movie due to budgetary concerns, elements of his character were grafted onto her. Namely, she takes his place as the team's medical and scientific expert, and scenes written for Beast ended up being given to her.
* DeathActivatedSuperpower: Once an entire lake falls on her at the end of ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', she gets stronger and more dangerous as shown in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* DudeMagnet: Scott and Logan are in love with her.
* FaceHeelTurn: As the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', she betrays the X-Men by vaporizing [[spoiler:Scott and Xavier]] and joins the Brotherhood.
* FieryRedhead -> EvilRedhead: The former for ''Film/XMen1'', ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', [[spoiler: ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'']] and ''Film/XMenApocalypse''. The latter as the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Wolverine falls for her.
* HeroicSacrifice:
** She accomplishes this in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', when the Blackbird is frozen at Alkali Lake with the dam about to burst in mere minutes, she steps off the jet and uses her now heightened telekinesis to break the ice and allow the jet to lift off, at the same time psychically restraining her teammates to keep them from stopping her. [[spoiler:She frees the jet seconds before she is seemingly crushed beneath tons of rushing water.]]
** Having survived this in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' but also becoming [[spoiler:the Phoenix]], she twice regains her sanity long enough to beg [[spoiler:Logan/Wolverine to kill her]] so she won't kill anyone else. He finally relents at the movie's climax and [[spoiler:impales her on his claws.]]
* HospitalHottie: She is a medical doctor who is engaged to Scott Summers, and this doesn't dissuade Logan in the slightest from pursuing her.
* ICannotSelfTerminate: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', she asks Wolverine twice to kill her as she senses [[SuperpoweredEvilSide the Phoenix]] taking over. [[spoiler:The second time, the request is fulfilled]].
* JediMindTrick: Is able to trick the mind of her observes so they can't look at her or anyone she shields.
* KillTheOnesYouLove: [[spoiler:Scott Summers and Professor X in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.]]
* MindOverMatter: She has similar rules as Xavier because he's her mentor.
* MsFanservice: In ''Film/TheWolverine'', she's only seen in a low-cut silk nightgown.
* OfficialCouple: With Scott Summers. While not explicitly mentioned in any of the movies, she is described as his fiancée in promotional materials. Doesn't stop Logan from having hots for her.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: [[spoiler:"Haunts" Logan in ''Film/TheWolverine''.]]
* PersonOfMassDestruction: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', the Phoenix effortlessly vaporizes hundreds of human soldiers and Magneto's mutant followers.
* PowerFloats: She is able to levitate when her Phoenix persona is dominant.
* PowerLimiter: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', not to mention in the [[ComicBook/{{X-Men}} original comics]] it was based on, we learn that Professor Xavier placed a mental block in her as a child, to keep her more extreme powers from manifesting.
* PsychicPowers: Among the X-Men, she is the only other telepath besides Professor X.
* RedHeadedHero: Played straight in the first two X-Men movies, but she defects in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' because of her SuperpoweredEvilSide.
* {{Seers}}: Downplayed; she can occasionally foresee a disastrous event, although the details can be vague.
** ''Film/X2XMenUnited'': After being briefly overwhelmed by her telepathy, she tells Scott that "something bad is supposed to happen."
* SanitySlippage: Why Xavier had neutered her mental powers to keep the Phoenix hidden. And once she's unleashed...
* SplitPersonalityTakeover: The Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''. Its awakening destroys her sanity, and because it is a PersonOfMassDestruction.
* StatuesqueStunner: In quite an amusing way, since the comics Jean is a measly 5'6", but Creator/FamkeJanssen is tall enough to surpass James Marsden (leading to [[ScullyBox some on-screen trickery to hide the fact]]).
* TeamMom: For X-Men, especially to the students. Best shown in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* {{Telepathy}}: Almost to Xavier's levels.
* TimeShiftedActor: Played by three different actresses depending on the character's age.
* WalkingWasteland: The Phoenix, as shown in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', is capable of projecting an aura of psychokinetic energy that literally disintegrates anything and any'''one''' caught in it. This is quite graphically shown during her VillainousBreakdown towards the film's climax, where she starts unconsciously vaporizing dozens of humans and mutants as part of her rampage.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: In her manifestation as the Phoenix in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''. Although it is explained that she was already mentally unstable as a girl and her massive powers had to be reduced for her own good and that of everyone around her by putting mental blocks into her psyche. When these were removed, she started killing people with her mind.[[note]](This is actually closer to the original Phoenix story than the later comic and adaptation stories that portray Jean as having been TouchedByVorlons; see the Comic Books section above.)[[/note]]
* WomanInWhite: Her role in ''Film/TheWolverine''.
* WomanScorned: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', after being rescued by the X-Men, she tries to sex Wolverine up. He refuses. Cue SuperpoweredEvilSide taking over.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.

%%* BadassTeacher
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', thanks to a CosmicRetcon.]]
* BlessedWithSuck: He must ''always'' cover his eyes with a ruby quartz lens, otherwise he might accidentally kill someone.
* TheCameo:
** ''Film/XMenOriginsWolverine'': As an adolescent, he's of the mutants targeted by Stryker. His power is copied and put into Weapon X. Ironically, it also ends up destroying most of Three Mile Island as well.
** [[spoiler:''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'': He's alive and well in the AlternateTimeline.]]
* CrashIntoHello: Meets Jean this way in ''Film/XMenApocalypse'', but can't actually see her due to wearing a blindfold at that time.
* CoolShades: Justified--he's always wearing them because they keep his particular mutation in check.
* DeadpanSnarker: Frequently, but ''especially'' around Logan, resulting in SnarkToSnarkCombat.
* DemotedToExtra: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', though [[RealLifeWritesThePlot there's a reason]]. This started happening even in [[Film/X2XMenUnited the second film]] where he was captured fairly early on and didn't come back until the end.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Despite acting as the team's field leader and, within the regular comic series, their linchpin since inception, he's quickly killed off-screen within the first 30 minutes of ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' by his newly resurrected fiancée, Jean Grey. As though that wasn't bad enough, his death barely registers with the rest of the cast later on in the film, with only a brief mention by Professor X who doesn't seem overly perturbed by the loss of his surrogate son]].
** [[spoiler:To some of the general public, his anti-climactic death might not have been that big of an issue as his screen time got shafted in the [[Film/XMen1 previous]] [[Film/X2XMenUnited two]] films in favor of Wolverine, who acted as the series' cinematic alpha hero. However, for fans of the comics, the death was also a slap in the face of sorts since the film's plot was heavily influenced by the comics' extremely well-regarded "Dark Phoenix" storyline that focuses on Jean and Scott. Within the context of ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', that story became a secondary plot thread, and Wolverine was substituted in as the romantic/heroic lead in light of Scott's less than stellar death]].
* EyeBeams: When his eyes are uncovered, they shoot red beams uncontrollably.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: While not actually foolish, he's the rebel of the Summers brothers, while Alex, being older, is the more responsible one.
* HeartbrokenBadass: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' after Jean's "death".]]
* HellBentForLeather: As an adult, he is frequently seen with a black leather jacket.
* KnightInSourArmor: No matter how much of a boy scout Wolverine thinks he is.
* TheLeader: Of the X-Men in the first three films, though he spends most of the second PutOnABus and [[spoiler:dies early on in the third]].
* NeverFoundTheBody: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', his body is never found after his death.]]
* NiceGuy: Which made his [[TheWoobie Woobie-dom]] in ''The Last Stand'' really pronounced.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: [[spoiler:When Jean kills him in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand, all the X-Men find are his sunglasses.]]
* OfficialCouple: With Jean Grey in ''Film/XMen1''. While not explicitly mentioned in the movie, he is described as her fiancé in promotional materials.
* SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: [[spoiler:In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', he's killed early on by the Phoenix.]]
* SunglassesAtNight: As stated, he has to wear sunglasses everywhere at all times or things tend to get destroyed by his eye beams.
* TimeShiftedActor: One actor has portrayed him during his adult years, but two different thespians have played him as a teen.
* UnluckyEverydude: Beaten down by Lady Deathstrike, and his relationship with Jean ends in the worst way possible.
* WouldHitAGirl:
** ''Film/X2XMenUnited'': After Lady Deathstrike attempts to sedate him, he hits her with an optic blast, but she recovers quickly due to her HealingFactor.

->'''Played By''': Creator/AnnaPaquin
->'''Film Appearances''': ''Film/XMen1 | Film/X2XMenUnited | Film/XMenTheLastStand | Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''
A mutant who can absorb any person's memories and abilities by touching them. As she cannot control this absorbing ability, Rogue can easily kill anyone, and thus is unable to be physically close to people.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Unlike the Rogue of the comics and most other adaptions, she ends up at Xavier's school from the very beginning and is never a former member of the Brotherhood. She never has to undergo a HeelFaceTurn, retroactively or otherwise, because here she was a Face to begin with.
* TheArtifact: There was really no point in keeping her around after the [[Film/XMen1 first movie]] (when Magneto needed her to power his machine). The only useful thing she did after that was stop Pyro's rampage and drive the X-Jet to get the members back--nearly crashing the thing, but that's a detail.
* BadPowersGoodPeople: As she doesn't have her comic book counterpart's HeelFaceTurn backstory, the filmmakers turned her into a sweet girl who sucks the life force (and mutant powers) out of anyone she touches.
* BlessedWithSuck: Her superpower doesn't allow her to touch the ones she loves.
* BroughtDownToNormal: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', [[spoiler:she willingly takes the cure for mutants, although the film's final scene where Magneto slowly regains his power proves that the cure is not permanent]].
** There is an alternate scene where [[spoiler:Rogue doesn't take the serum]].
* CantHaveSexEver: Or even kiss someone ever. It tends to be hazardous to their health.
** In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', multiple characters point out the inherent problems faced by Iceman and Rogue.
* CompositeCharacter: In regards to the animated series, Movie!Rogue is a mix of Rogue and Jubilee.
* DamselInDistress: In ''Film/XMen1'', she was [[spoiler:kidnapped by Magneto for his machine]].
* DemotedToExtra:
** She had fairly large parts in [[Film/XMen1 the first]] and [[Film/X2XMenUnited second movies]], but her storyline in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' remotes to her being jealous of Bobby and Kitty and [[spoiler:taking an apparent cure]]. Part of it was also because Creator/HalleBerry didn't like Storm's comparatively smaller role and demanded a larger part. But objectively speaking they both were shafted.
** In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', she only appears in a non-speaking cameo and doesn't even get a close-up. This is because all her other scenes were cut out and then restored on ''The Rogue Cut''.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Everyone calls her Rogue. Marie is only used twice in the entire franchise.
* FirstGrayHair: In ''Film/XMen1'' she gets her Skunk Stripe not from age, but [[LockedIntoStrangeness as a result of being used to power Magneto's machine]]. She is asked whether she's considered dyeing it, but replies that she actually thinks it looks kind of cool, and wears it like a battle scar.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: This is why in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', [[spoiler:she decides to take the cure; however, one alternate ending shows her not taking it, and holding hands with Bobby wearing gloves]].
* InformedAbility: ''Film/XMen1'' talks about, but never shows the mental aspect of her power where she picks up memories and personality fragments from a person she touches in addition to the person's strength/ability. In a scene near the end, Jean says she picked up some of Logan's personality traits, but they're gone by the next scene. In the later films, she seems to gain some measure of control over her powers, which might explain why she doesn't fear losing her mind anymore.
* LockedIntoStrangeness: She gets her white streak because of Magneto's attempted power-transfer toward the end of [[Film/XMen1 the first film]].
* OfficialCouple: With Bobby Drake are in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''. They are in the early stages of a romantic relationship, and their challenge is dealing with her mutant ability, as she can kill someone with a prolonged touch.
* PowerParasite: Her power involves sapping life energy and powers from those she comes into contact with. [[BlessedWithSuck Whether she wants to or not.]]
* PragmaticAdaptation: Rogue is unable to fly, has no fighting/combat abilities, and does not have super strength or invulnerability. This is because, unlike in the comic books, she has none of the abilities that she aquired from Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers).
** That's because they [[ScrewedByTheLawyers don't have the rights]] to use ComicBook/MsMarvel.
* TheRunaway: In ''Film/XMen1'', she runs away from home after her power manifests itself while kissing her boyfriend, causing him to have a seizure and fall into a coma for three weeks.
* SkunkStripe: In ''Film/XMen1'', she acquires her signature white hair streak after her near-death experience in Magneto's apparatus. She decides it looks good enough to keep.
* VampiricDraining: Through touch.

A student at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters who takes a liking to Rogue. He can change temperatures to subzero degrees and use the moisture in the air to create ice.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: The movie version is much sweeter and more mature than his comic book counterpart's JerkWithAHeartOfGold[=/=]ManChild persona.
* AgeLift: Inverted; he's the same age as Rogue, whereas his comic counterpart is closer in age to Cyclops and Jean.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:He is alive and well in the AlternateTimeline of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.]]
* BadassBeard: He sports one in ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''. Shawn Ashmore has said in interviews that it signifies his character's maturity.
* ChickMagnet: Rogue and Kitty have fallen for him.
* ChivalrousPervert: He adores Rogue in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', and although he's supposed to be looking the other way, he can't resist taking a peek at her while she's changing into his mother's old clothes.
* DieOrFly: His mutation turning him into AnIcePerson in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.

* MundaneUtility: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', when Logan wants a cold drink, he gives a Dr. Pepper to Bobby, who uses his powers to chill it.
* NiceGuy: He is one of the nicest mutants.
* OfficialCouple: He and Rogue are this in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''. They are in the early stages of a romantic relationship, and their challenge is dealing with her mutant ability, as she can kill someone with a prolonged touch. In ''The Rogue Cut'' of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he is Kitty's boyfriend, [[spoiler:but when an AlternateTimeline is created, he continues his original relationship with Rogue]].
* OnlySaneMan: He is down-to-earth and seems to have a good head on his shoulders.
* PrettyBoy: His dainty facial features quickly communicate to the audience that he's a good-hearted person. This is especially true in the first movie, where he was only a minor character, but viewers were able to tell right away that "the cute guy" is sincere when trying to befriend Rogue. Moroever, being forced to abandon his family in the second film is more painful when his expression is very much like a puppy dog who has just been kicked.
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', the rule-abiding, NiceGuy Iceman juxtaposes the rebellious, {{Jerkass}} Pyro. At the museum's food court, John is being rude to a young man who asks to borrow his lighter, and Bobby tells his friend to knock it off, plainly disapproving of John's annoying behaviour. When the police order the mutants to get on the ground, Drake immediately obeys, but Allerdyce attacks the officers with giant fire balls.
* SiblingRivalry: Implied, since his brother Ronnie calls the cops claiming that Iceman and the others are holding his family hostage soon after finding out he is a mutant.
* TookALevelInBadass: ''Film/X2XMenUnited'' and ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' have him upgrading from student to X-Men. In the climatic battle of ''The Last Stand'', he finally goes into his full ice form. By the time of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he has taken several more levels, including the debut of the iconic ice slide from the comics.
* WellDoneSonGuy: As his visit to his parents shows.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: He and Pyro were friends in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', but are adversaries in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: After Stryker's raid on the school in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', Bobby, Rogue, Logan and Pyro stopped by the Drake family house in hopes of regrouping, which in the process revealed Bobby's mutant abilities to his parents. His ''own brother'' calls the police and reports them as a threat despite the mutants not harbouring any ill intentions. After Pyro stupidly attacks the officers in the standoff that follows, Bobby is forced to flee with the others knowing he can never come back.

!! [[ComicBook/KittyPryde Katherine "Kitty" Pryde]]
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/shadowcat_xmen_films_7045.jpg]]
->'''Played By''': Sumela Kay, Katie Stuart, and Creator/EllenPage
->'''Film Appearances''': ''Film/XMen1 | Film/X2XMenUnited | Film/XMenTheLastStand | Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''
A mutant with the power of 'phasing' (meaning she can make her body insubstantial and travel through solid objects). She later develops Mental Time Travel abilities in between the events of ''The Last Stand'' and ''Days of Future Past''.
----
* AscendedExtra: She has cameos in the [[Film/XMen1 first]] [[Film/X2XMenUnited two]] films, and then a more major role in the [[Film/XMenTheLastStand third]] and [[Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast fifth]] (seventh if you include the Wolverine movies) films.
* BadassAdorable: She totally pwned [[Film/XMenTheLastStand The Juggernaut]], [[MemeticMutation bitch]]!
* CompositeCharacter: Rachel Summers's role in [[Comicbook/DaysOfFuturePast the original comic]] is given to her in ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.
* CuteBruiser: This cutie even made ''The Juggernaut'' her bitch!
* DeadlyDodging: Used against Juggernaut in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', as she tricks him into crashing into a wall behind her; due to their powers being temporarily nullified by Leech, he's promptly knocked out.
* {{Determinator}}: In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', she must keep the link open, is at one point stabbed by Logan when his present body reacts violently to mental trauma in the past. And due to how time runs concurrently in the past and present, it's implied that it takes a few days before Logan and co. can properly stop Mystique, which means that she is slowly bleeding out and can't sleep for that period.
* FanservicePack: In ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' while wearing her X-Men uniform.
* IndyPloy: To take down Juggernaut, Shadowcat goads him into charging at her and Leech. Leech's power nullifies the Juggernaut's, and when he slams into the wall he gets knocked out.
* IntangibleMan: Her mutation allows her to do this.
* LittleMissBadass: She made the Juggernaut her bitch!
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', she now somehow has the ability to send people's consciousnesses back through time.
* OfficialCouple: In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', she seems to have become one with Bobby. This is confirmed in ''The Rogue Cut''. [[spoiler:In the new timeline, this has been erased and she is presumably with Colossus, as Bobby is with Rogue again.]]
* PlayingGertrude: Somewhat. The viral website states the events of ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' occurred in 2006 when Kitty appeared to be, at the most, in her mid-teens. The BadFuture is said to occur in or very close to 2023, putting Kitty in her early 30s even though the films were released just 8 years apart and Creator/EllenPage was 26 during filming.
* ShesAllGrownUp: Bobby Drake has certainly noticed that she's grown into Creator/EllenPage. [[http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140523084231/marveldatabase/images/0/08/Katherine_Pryde-DoFP.jpg Even more so]] in ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.

[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/colossus_x-men_films_7447.png]]
->'''Played By''': Daniel Cudmore
->'''Film Appearances''': ''Film/XMen1 | Film/X2XMenUnited | Film/XMenTheLastStand | Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''
A mutant who can transform his skin into an organic steel, granting superhuman strength and a resistance to damage and temperature.
-> For tropes applying to Colossus in the new timeline established by ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', see the [[Characters/XMenFilmSeriesXMenNewTimeline X-Men (New Timeline)]] page.
----
* TheBigGuy: He is the strongest member of the X-Men and his power revolves around hitting hard and shrugging off blows that could take out most other mutants.
* FastBallSpecial:
** [[TropeNamer Naturally]]. He pulls this off with Wolverine as the fastball.
** In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', ''he's'' the fastball. Blink throws him at the Sentinels by using her portals (first, he goes through one where the other end is high in the air; then, right before he hits the ground, she opens another one with the other end behind a Sentinel).
* FlatCharacter: He becomes a full X-Man in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', but still only has a single line and no discernible personality whatsoever.
* GentleGiant: Is on the good guys' side.
* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he [[spoiler:is torn in half by a pair of Future Sentinels. Fortunately, it is undone by the CosmicRetcon.]]
* {{Hunk}}: He's the largest of the X-Men and ''quite'' good-looking.
* MadeOfIron: ''[[ExtraOreDinary Literally]]'' when his mutant ability is active, which allows him to take more punishment than any other member of the team.
* MrFanservice: Spends most of his screen time in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'' running around shirtless, and his uniform in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' lacks sleeves to show off his physique.
* TheQuietOne:
** He has only one line in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', despite his larger role.
** In ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', he has his largest role yet, but his speaking part only consists of a single word.
* PermaShave: In 2023, he has very little facial hair despite living in a post-apocalyptic world where mutants are being hunted down by Sentinels.
* SleevesAreForWimps: His uniform in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' is sleeveless, showing off his muscles and more of his transformation when using his power.
* SuperStrength: Even when not transformed, he can still [[http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121202165844/x-men-movies-canon/images/6/69/Colossus_X_-Men_Last_Stand_004.jpg carry around a massive standard TV]] as if it weighed nothing.

!! Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nightcrawler_xmen_films_1281.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:300:"Most people will never believe in ''anything'' beyond what they see with their own two eyes."]]
->'''Played By''': Creator/AlanCumming
->'''Film Appearances''': ''Film/X2XMenUnited''
A kindly German mutant with a strong Catholic faith, yet ironically he has the appearance of a blue demon. He is capable of teleporting himself (and others) instantly from one location to another. On his body are many scarification marks, one for every sin. After fleeing from East Berlin, he becomes a student at Xavier's school and a member of the X-Men in the AlternateTimeline.
-> For tropes applying to Nightcrawler in the new timeline established by ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', see the [[Characters/XMenFilmSeriesXMenNewTimeline X-Men (New Timeline)]] page.
----
* {{Adorkable}}: ''Film/X2XMenUnited'': Loves to give (often interrupted) long-winded introduction speeches, playfully spies on secret meetings, and awkwardly flirts with Storm.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Blue.
* BadassLongcoat: Wears this in most of ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:By Stryker in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.]]
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He was a major character and a potential love interest for Storm in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', but he didn't appear in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'' because actor Creator/AlanCumming found the make-up and prosthetic process grueling and refused to return to it without Creator/BryanSinger. Cumming can be seen in the behind-the-scenes footage for ''Film/X2XMenUnited'' already stating that he never wants to go through the ordeal again. The video game based on the films which takes place between the two movies explains that he, a peaceful man, went abroad to distance himself from the X-Men's violent lifestyle.
* CircusBrat: He spent most of his life with the Munich circus before he was [[Film/X2XMenUnited kidnapped by Colonel Stryker]].
* CoveredInScars: He is covered, from his pointy ears to all four of his toes, in rather artistic-looking raised scars. They're self-inflicted; apparently, he felt the need to punish himself for... something. He seems to be a bit of a [[ExtremeDoormat harmless milksop]], so it's somewhat baffling and/or depressing to think about what he could possibly have to feel so guilty about. It could be related to the fact he's a devout Catholic.
* LightningBruiser: Even faster as he teleports.
* TheMagnificent: The Incredible Nightcrawler. He hasn't particularly let it go to his head, possibly because he gained the title as a circus acrobat, but he'll still drop it in occasionally.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Played with. He has a mouthful of fangs that were something between human-like and shark-like, rather than merely pointed eyeteeth as in the comics. Fortunately he's a pretty cool guy [[spoiler:when he's not under mind control]].
* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: The only character to avert this.
* OneOfTheKids: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', he was excluded from the planning session along with the younger X-Men.
* PluckyComicRelief: He provides some of the more amusing moments in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* PutOnABus: He didn't appear in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand'', with no explanation given. (The in-universe reason appears in ''X-Men: The Official Game'' where Nightcrawler leaves due to the X-Men's missions clashing with his peaceful nature. The RealLife one was Creator/AlanCumming refused to return without Creator/BryanSinger, especially since he was not fond of the torturous make-up sessions. In one of the behind-the-scenes featurettes, he readily admits that he doesn't think he could come back and go through it again.) He returns in ''Film/XMenApocalypse'', but that film is [[spoiler:set in an AlternateTimeline.]]
* RaisedCatholic: Is a devout Catholic who questions if his demonic appearance is a curse from God for some misdeeds that he must atone for, to the point of tattooing crosses and such.
* ReligiousBruiser: Even reaches TheAtoner levels in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* RunningGag: In ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', every time he meets someone new, he ''has'' to introduce himself with a long speech... and gets cut off nearly every time.
* SelfHarm: Implicitly where all those scars came from.
* ShipTease: With Storm in ''Film/X2XMenUnited''.
* TeleportSpam: His attack on the White House in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', where he's kicking, throwing, punching, and just beating the crap out of every agent from every angle, with the last one in glorious slow motion.
** Then there's ''Film/XMenApocalypse'', where his teleportation gets used to its maximum potential. His fight with Archangel is particularly an impressive display of [[PerfectlyCromulentWord teleportmanship]].
* ThouShaltNotKill: Given his religiousness...
* TimeShiftedActor: He is portrayed by two different actors: one as an adult and the other as an adolescent.
* TokenReligiousTeammate: He is a devout Catholic.
* WhatBeautifulEyes: His irises were yellow in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', but they are rimmed with red in ''Film/XMenApocalypse''.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: And skin!
