Marvel: Giancarlo Esposito hints at the role he will play in the MCU (VIDEO)
Maybe he shouldn’t have revealed something like that
Let’s not laugh at Giancarlo Esposito , we all met him and -almost forever- will call him ” Gus Fring” of Breaking Bad, no matter how many roles he plays. He is one of the most recognizable Hollywood actors out there now and for years Marvel fans have wanted him in the MCU.
In a recent appearance at San Antonio Comic-Con, Esposito spoke directly to fans about whether he has been approached by Marvel Studios . Not only has he been approached but he has confirmed that they are already in talks for him to play a role in the MCU .
Who will he be? The 64-year-old Hollywood star did not stop there and wanting to tease the audience, he mentioned that he would like to play someone from Doctor Doom and Magneto , but most of all – and he said it with emphasis as if winking at them – Professor X !
Watch the clip with Giancarlo Esposito:
Can you imagine him as the Charles Xavier of the MCU or even a Variant of him in the Secret Wars arc that runs the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Already the first mention of mutants in the MCU was made in the finale of the series Ms. Marvel, so it’s only a matter of time before we see more Mutants or even X-Men popping up.
It was also recently leaked by radio producer Howard Stern, who appears to be involved in a project related to Dr. Doom.
