My 3 reasons as to why NC wasn't in X1

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is just the beginning - talk Marvel on the big screen, small screen and everything in between. DC Cinematic Universe and independent comic creations are welcome, too - The Walking Dead, Preacher, etc.

i was jsut saying sicne the movie was already written and cast when the budget was increased, it's not the reason for Nightcrawler being included...

wasn't the kid on the basketball court Multiple man/boy? correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he was also in the scene where the x-jet is coming out of the ground and there's this boy with glasses staring out the window. :coy

That's what I thought rad_666, because on some website they said the scene was shot with triplets and that it was not teleportation, so it must have been Jamie..

mmm, could have been pietro, but if so, they should have cast him with silver hair to make it easier for the fans to spot cameos.:P

I think they just didn't want to introduce too many characters in the first movie, since they wanted it to be appealing to people who weren't at all familiar with the comics. Certain characters barely got any fleshing-out as it was.

On the X-2 special features disc, Singer mentioned that one reason he brought in Nightcrawler was because in the first movie all the "good" mutants were attractive and (nearly) all the "bad" mutants were ugly or grotesque. He wanted someone strange-looking on the good side-- and I guess to balance it out, the baddies had the lovely Lady Deathstryke on theirs.

Of course, we all know that Nightcrawler is beautiful in his own special way!
