What if Kang has black hands and a black neck? Gonna have to paint those areas if you want to swap him with a white guys head.
From the statue at the end of Loki he has the comic accurate suit with the collar, gloves and everything. So it'll just be a case of swapping a head.
Looks just like all those Antiquity statues...
I'm just waiting for F4 and GR casting. Sure seems like Norman Reedus wants that GR role. Quinto or Evans would have been an awesome Namor. Diversify your portfolio bro.
I'm not that much invested in GR anymore, I just need a good one for my shelf. I hope Cage doesn't come back if I'm being honest, because I want him to play a role with more flair. Mephisto or Doom, something to that effect.
As for Namor, I've already expressed my disappointment, but I'm reserving a sliver of hope because while in some pics he looks awful and like a pudgy dweeb, in others he's got that egotistical look which fits.
I still would've preferred a 6ft+ hot Namor that's more Med than Native American, but I can deal with it. It's not awful casting to the level of Kang. I think they'll give him a closed costume with no ab windows, so worst case scenario I'll swap a Keanu head. Or I'll wait for a 3rd party comic Namor. Or mod an Aquamomoa. It's too early, so I'll wait. But my Namor he ain't.
My Namor is statuesque, regal, hot, arrogant and terrifying. There's a reason he's popular with women and gay men. Check Twitter and Tumblr and you'll see. Lots of folks were pissed off with the casting since they didn't get their eye candy. And I'm similarly disappointed, as I've already said that if I'm spending 300€ per figure, I want to look at beautiful people on my shelf. But again, it's not Kang-level bad for me. It's disappointing, but eh, I can kinda deal with it. It's just that this he isn't.
Scott's for Jean and I disliked Scemma as time went on, but I really liked Namor x Emma. It kept him away from Susan and the tired affair, and the relationship made sense. Maybe it's because I love both characters, I don't know. I'm not going to lie, I've always self-inserted and lived vicariously through my favourites, like everyone else.
So generally I'm discouraged from buying multiples and will stick with one for the Illuminati, whereas with an accurate Namor I could go for various looks for more than one displays (one with the Illuminati, another with the X-Men, one more with the F4, etc). But who knows, I may like him enough once I see him in action and soak it in as an AU. I remain hopeful in any case.
Cavill would be an awesome Cyclops. I think Captain Britain would be too similar to Superman's abilities and Cavill would rather just do something different like Cyclops, which would be a decades long role.
Depends on how young they go with the MCU X-Men and so on. I want them as grownups myself, but we'll see. Cavill fits a lot of roles and he needs the redemption, so I want him to get something high profile and not a meme like Hyperion or Gladiator.
Not sure if we will ever see Iron Fist again with the series getting trashed and Shang-Chi doing the karate thing. Iron Fist is awesome street level.
I never cared much for the street stuff, especially IF.
Surfer should like the Hulk in that he bounces around many different franchise movies. Not sure if Keanu would be up for many appearances of a character.
Eh, I don't see why not. He keeps doing the Wick sequels and something like Surfer wouldn't require that much effort. Maybe he'll play the actual Kang who comes in and kills Clown Kang...
Thing with the X-Men is that Fox/Singer really did most of the big storylines. The spectacle just wasn't there for me along with missing key character traits. To not have Wolverine recognize Sabretooth immediately put me off on enjoying the FoX-Men.
I have a soft spot for the FoX-Men, but it's been so long, and they were so watered down, that everyone will forget about them and embrace the MCU approach if they don't screw up the casting, and embrace all the Sci-Fi elements.
P.S. Remove your trash Dune signature! lol It's Strange time!
Yeah, that was a missed opportunity to get Luke Evans into the MCU. I remember he was being considered for the role of Doctor Strange before Benedict Cumberbatch got the role. I really do hope that Evans will get an MCU role at some point. Just gotta hope if he does that the role won't be wasted. Like Jude Law was wasted.
Evans got lowkey blacklisted after he publicly came out. Same as Matt Bomer. They're literally perfect for superheroes and they're nowhere to be seen.
Maybe they'll get Luke Evans back as Dracula as a nod to the Dark Universe's failure... But I'm not holding my breath.
Not MCU related, but I’ve always thought Luke Evans would be a perfect Skeletor/Keldor if they ever got that MOTU movie off the ground.
Right after Thundercats...
I was hoping Luke Evans was going to be Dr Strange back when but that fan art of him as Namor is pretty compelling.Charlize not being Danvers was just one of Feiges biggest fumbles. I’ve heard Reeves was most interested in Ghost Rider which would be a natural fit. I think Keanu understands his thespian limits combined with his age.
Feige has been fumbling lots of castings lately, let's be honest. I'm glad Theron's (reportedly) playing Clea though; I prefer her as a character.
I don't know if I can see Reeves as Blaze. Maybe an older Ketch with the blue flames. But I think they'll keep him for someone more "important". Big names like that they keep for their villains or mentors mostly.
