Havok would have became a marauder according to Russian Magik's script, but is unknown if he evolved into becoming a Horseman. Speaking Horseman, it was foreshadowed in the first season by Archangel and Apocalypse and had the second season aired, some mutants would've became subjects for the Horsemen possibly Gambit, Sabertooth, etc. Even though it was already foreshadowed in Shades of Gray, plans were seemly under way to bring Nate Gray, Cable (who are Cyclops's sons in alt timelines) and possibly Hope Summers or Madeline Pryor into Wolverine and the X-men and there was already a concept art of Cable, but because of the series being cancelled, It is unknown what their roles would be and how Cyclops or Jean would react.
