Apparently, Alan Cumming hated the make up for Nightcrawler and didnt want to go through the (8-hour) process again for another movie. He was also fed up with having to give so much time over to the movie, putting off other projects. Due to his lack of enthusiasm, and the fact so may other characters were being introduced, I think they just binned him. Interestingly aswell, he didnt not get on with Bryan Singer at all. maybe he'll come back around, or at least i hope he does because he did rock the movie! ;D

Most certainly one of the best characters, for sure.
He provided a lot of much needed comic relief.

Yea, and his fight/action scene in the beginning of the movie in the white house was one of the best of the movie.

i dont see why they didn have nightcrawler in the new movie that kinda upset me nightcrawler will be missed!!! i am also really into the games, and i have heard that the new official x-men game explains what happens to nightcrawler! the game connects X2 and X3. the game comes out a week before the movie, so i am definitely going to buy it before seeing X3.

Who else agrees that that is one of the greatest character introductions..i dont mean from an action perspective.. but for fans of the comic books..too see the shy, pacifist (allmost) furry blue elf go nuts rocked me! u have to watch it again in slow motion to appreciate what he does..the moves he does with his tail are spectacular! and in my opinion he damn near steals the show from wolverine its just a pity he died off a bit towards the end.. and that he wont be in x3 but yeh..lemme hear sum love for mr wagner! YESS! I loved Nightcrawler! I think, for me, he just freaked me out in the beginning of the movie. Story time with Madison.... before X2 came out I loved the comics and tv show but for some reason i didn't know about there being an x-men movie. my dad one day brought home X2 to watch and I'm ecstatic about it. then later i go out to buy the first... so unknowingly i cheated.. sorta. lol But yeah, when Nightcrawler's attacked the white house I was so suprised because by my knowing, he was a good guy. and of course I figured out the story of him and Stryker and all that fun-day stuff. Yes... he IS the greatest character!

Alan Cumming is a baby. Rebecca is a soldier. This is the third movie that she is Mystique? That means all that make-up is the third time. And Alan only did it once. And I'm pretty sure Mystique's make-up is worse. Seeing as she wears nothing at all.

im trying to beat the game and figure out y nightcrawler isn't in x3 i promise i will tell u once i figure it out im almost to that point in the game to figure out y
but im thinking from what i've seen and his actions in the game maybe the reason hes gone is cuz he likes more peaceful stuff and not fighting and in the game he keeps having visions about jason and that the xmen left him there to die and to me it sounds like that might be one of the reasons y he is not in x3 but this is just a hypothesis from the game story so it's not completely true but its something on the lines of that i think

Did you notice at the end when Xavier and x-men arrive to McKenna's office in WH, Nightcrawler wear black clothes. it's like a personalized costume. He doesnt have his circus trousers, yellow waistcoat For me no contest! he has joined X-team like Ice n Rogue, with Xavier's accord
