In the X-Men Evolution animated series, Nightcrawler is a student at the Xavier Institute, with much the same nature and demeanor as his comic book counterpart (although he does not appear to be religious). The show has, like the comics, revealed that Mystique is his birth mother and Rogue his foster sister. When Mystique was turned to stone, he tried to be there for both his mother and Rogue. He uses a holographic inducer to look human which he uses to go to school. He was voiced by Brad Swaile.

In the motion picture ', Nightcrawler is played by Alan Cumming. This version shares much of the same history (circus, Catholicism, native to Germany) with the comic book inspiration; his scenes with Mystique leave it ambiguous as to whether or not any subsequent sequels will reveal her to be his mother. Much to the disappointment of Nightcrawler's fans, Nightcrawler will not appear in X-Men 3.
