The Character: An X-Man of Japanese origin, he'd bring a decent slice of Oriental cool to the proceedings. His hot-headed nature meant he wasn't ideally suited to being a part of Xavier's team, and he created much drama during his limited tenure.
Could He Hold His Own Against Magneto? He may not be a team player, but as he comes packing such a cool power, you'd definitely want him on your side. He can basically create and release red-hot plasma, which would look hella cool if he and Magneto went head-to-head for a metal/magma slinging match. Imagine the visuals…
'60s Version: Concerned about the devastating side effects of the Hiroshima atom bomb, Professor X heads to Japan to investigate the fallout, meeting the young Shiro Yoshida in the process.

Hm. Cable is closesly associated with Deadpool, so I'd expect him to be reserved for Ryan Reynolds outing. Sunfire, similarly, would more likely appear alongside Silver Samurai in Wolverine's Japanese outing. Two you've missed: The Midwitch Cuckoos worked closely with Emma Frost in Grant Morrison's run in the New X-Men comic. Since Angel Salvadore is in the First Class film, it seems sensible to introduce Beak (Barnell Bohusk) as he has a relationship with Angel in the comics.

Haven't seen First Class yet, so I'm not sure if he makes an outing but Juggernaut? :)

Some good picks, but since Vaughn has "Americanized" both Moira McTaggart and Sean Cassidy, I wouldn't hold my breath for the internatinal themed team you seem to be hoping for....

You include Quicksilver, but not Scarlet Witch?

I think Lieb Schrieber should return as Sabretooth, he was one of the better things about in Wolverine: Origins and the original not modified Deadpool.

Shouldn't the sequel be called X-Men : 2nd Class
