Good poll!!
I've heard rumors that Beast would be the next character unmasked, but who knows!
I think Jubilee has already been shown, but I would like to learn more about her! I'm still not sure what her power is. As for Angel, is he the guy that was with Logan in the war? (I'm trying to learn but this is confusing)

angel
While attending a prestigious East Coast boarding school, Warren Worthington sprouted wings from his shoulder blades. Initially alarmed by his mutant gift, Warren soon grew to relish the freedom of flight. Still, he strapped the wings tightly to his back to avoid suspicion -- and by extension, discrimination. Warren was forced into action, however, when fire struck his dormitory. Donning a blond wig and long nightshirt to conceal his identity, he delivered the students inside from certain death -- appearing as an angel to onlookers.
Despite the obvious risks -- exposure, loss of standing, even death -- Warren would not be grounded. Shortly after saving his classmates, he took to the skies of New York City as a costumed crimefighter. Warren's nocturnal activities drew the attention of Professor X, who invited him to become a founding member of the X-Men. Warren accepted Xavier's offer.
Warren initially hid the secret of his double life with a mask, but later revealed his identity to the public. Besides serving as an example to other mutants, he naively hoped to dazzle humanity with the photogenic face of evolution. Tolerated only because of his family's vast wealth and impeccable standing, Warren quickly learned he would only be embraced for who and what he truly is if Xavier's dream for peaceful coexistence between man and mutant becomes reality. As such, he has fought for his mentor's vision in various capacities since his teens. But Warren was not always Xavier's prize pupil. For a time, he made more headlines for his social escapades and celebrity conquests than as the poster boy for human-mutant relations.
Warren's carefree world came crashing down after dark forces conspired to clip his wings. When a squad of superhuman assassins descended on the Morlocks, New York City's subterranean mutants, the X-Men intervened. During the clash, one of the mercenaries impaled Warren's wings. The wounds became infected, and doctors were forced to amputate the crippled appendages.
Deeply depressed, Warren attempted to commit suicide. Just before the explosion of his small aircraft, however, he was teleported to safety by Apocalypse. The mutant warlord offered to return Warren's ability to fly, but for a lofty price. Warren could regain what he had lost only by becoming Apocalypse’s acolyte: the Fourth Horseman, Death. Warren was desperate and confused, and he surrendered himself to Apoclaypse completely. Born on razor-sharp wings of steel, the fallen hero fought his former teammates under his new master's thrall. Mentally unbalanced, Warren came to his senses only when tricked into believing he had killed his old friend Iceman.
Having reconciled his short-lived servitude to Apocalypse, Warren finally molted the warlord's metallic wings to reveal his natural feathers underneath. Recovered from his brush with evil, Archangel again soars the skies alongside the X-Men. No longer a happy-go-lucky youth, Warren fully understands the price that must be paid for lasting peace between man and mutant. Now dedicated completely to Xavier's cause, he has brought the preponderance of his sizeable inheritance to bear in the fight for a better tomorrow.
Jubilee
And to answer your Q about Jubilee,her power is releasing
sparks/bolts/whatever the term is of energy that resemble fireworks (hence the name)
from her hands.
Unfortunatly they looked more like electricity in the X2 deleted scene.
Re: Jubilee
I thought Jubilee got her name by combining her first and last name? "Jubilation Lee" ...Jubilee?...But yeah,she throws pretty firework crap,Which goes pop and boom...and which I'll be doing on the 4th...muahah...
Re: Jubilee
Jubilee's mutant powers are as follows(and are more than pretty sparklers that go pop and boom.):
The ability to generate and emit pure light-energy plasmoids( otherwise known as quasi-animate transitory plasmoids/pafs/fireworks,) from her body. She mentally controls where they go, what they do, their shape, color, and intensity. These plasmoids range from a multitude of colorful sparkles, balls, and streamers capable of temporarily blinding and stunning onlookers... to a fairly powerful detonation capable of smashing and blowing up small to large sized objects. Usually when she uses her powers on enemies, she blinds them... but she has been seen to knock them out with concussive force just like Cyclops' powers work. Her fireworks have been shown to blind, stun, burn, scald, knock out, and push back people... and burn, blow up, short-circuit objects. Jubilee has the potential to detonate matter at an atomic level... and has actually blown up mansions and sentinels in the comics. She is afraid to use her fullest power on people since she would kill them... she's actually given cpr to a few of her enemies to save their lives during battle(which says a lot about her innocence and loving nature.)
Jubilee is also skilled in gymnastics and was once qualified for the olympic games, which was before her parents were murdered.
Re: Jubilee
Because some people don't care fror Beast or Jubilee, and/or think the Danger Room is great but would rather throw another interesting character into the mix?
Re: Jubilee
"and/or think the Danger Room is great but would rather throw another interesting character into the mix?"
Theres so many characters already.
IMHO its nice to see Beast and Angel (who I prefer to Gambit or Jubilee), but now we know Nightcrawler has been cut becuase of lack of screen time.
With only 2 hours screen time every 3 years,they should concentrate on the characters they have instead of adding new ones.

Re: Jubilee
I would love to see Gambit or Jubilee in X3....Although I think it would be [i]really interesting[/i] to see Archangel.....He is just so emotionally unstable at times, I think it would be great to see someone who "isn't all the way there" mentally (and who doesn't follow anyone) be added to the mix
Re: Jubilee
GAMBIT! GAMBIT! GAMBIT! GAMBIT! GAMBIT! dudes he seriously rocks im sorry but beast- played by kelsey grammer is gunna be just like fraiser (yes i know beast came first) and angel, yawn he flies so bloody what, Gambit rules and they need a good lookin x-men i mean who would hav thought that wolverine turnt out to be the best looking!
Re: whats new for x3?
Gambit, hands down. He's a really interesting character who, if played by a good actor, can really be fun. Jubilee is kind of... annoying. Beast (as already mentioned) is basically going to be Frasier with blue fur, and while the Danger Room would be REALLY cool, it just won't provide anything special other than putting it in the movie for comic-book reference.
I really want to know who plays Gambit! But they're being nasty about it, and not telling us! Please, please, please, please, please make him a good actor!
Re: whats new for x3?
Yeah, it kinda sucked how they made Jubilee electric-based, when we all know that it's charged plasma that explodes into light. But whatever. She's not a major part anyway.
NEITHER WILL GAMBIT BE. Gambit will have a small role. It will be nowhere near Juggernaut, Beast, Angel, or Shadowcat (all the newish ones with larger roles).
And I think, for Angel, what they will do, is have him be younger in a flashback trying to cut of his wings, like in the rough-draft script, and then he'll excape from his daddy, and hten a little later in the movie, or just in present time, there wil be the older Angel being recruited/rescued and studied on Muir Island, by Moira McTaggert, because she was just cast. And then Angel will do something in the end, like die or something. Who knows.
Re: whats new for x3?
BEAST WILL NOT BE LIKE FRASIER.
Ur all idiots (just kidding kind of) maybe you just don't know anything about acting. Mmk, this is acting: A person playing roles that differ from eachother at different times. There are things such as type casting, but they needed an intelligent actor that was on the larger side, and I cannot think of anyone besides Kelsey Grammar who could do that. Just like I can't thinnk of ANYONE who could play the Thing otehr than Michael Chiklis. Can you? I didn't think so.
How do you think Frasier has become so high-profile? It's not from playing a psychiatrist every time he's ever acted. No. He can do a lot of things. Bottom line, Beast is intelligent and big. Kelsey Grammar will totally own at being Beast. He is the ONLY actor right now I can picture as Beast. With the fur and makeup, it's going to rock so completely hard. And, since it is Kelsey, we KNOW that finally, Beast will not be cut out of an X-Men movie, as has been his luck twice now. I cannot wait for Kelsey's pictures as Beast.
Re: whats new for x3?
The character I would really like to see in X3 is gambit, but I would also like to see the sentinals and some danger room scenes. They almost put the Sentinals and Danger Room in X2 but those scenes were cut so maybe in X3 they'll do some of those scenes.
whats new for x3?
