The Cast of Marvel Phase 4: Star-Studded Lineup Awaits
The rumor mill doesn't stop turning, and there are plenty of huge claims about which big names are set to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) over the coming years. Marvel Phase 4 is shaping up to be a monumental chapter in the MCU, with new and returning characters making an impact. Let's take a closer look at some of the most talked-about pickups.
She-Hulk
Alison Brie steps into the role of She-Hulk, a character whose adventures have been comedic in nature. By her own admission, it's a role that balances humor with heart. Alison, known for her roles in hit shows like Community and Rosemary's Baby, has the perfect blend of charm and wit to handle this role.
Norman Osborn
When it comes to Norman Osborn, both David Morrissey and Bob Odenkirk are touted as serious contenders for the role. Morrissey, with his experience in highly acclaimed series like The Walking Dead, will bring a dark and ominous vibe to the character. On the other hand, Odenkirk's smug and slimey persona, as seen in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, would bring a unique twist to the role.
While it would be amazing to see either actor suit up as the Green Goblin, rumors point to Kraven the Hunter being the third film's main villain. This might be the best scenario to initially wait and see.
Red Hulk
William Hurt joins the cast as Red Hulk, a character that fans have long awaited. His role in the upcoming The Black Widow film will likely involve recruiting a number of classic characters like Taskmaster and Yelena Belova. The villains-turned-heroes aspect of his character is reminiscent of the dynamic seen in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
Whether or not Ross transforms into the Red Hulk is yet to be confirmed, but given the character's origins in the She-Hulk TV series, it's an exciting possibility.
Dario Agger
Christian Bale narrows down to one of the more specific and intriguing roles: Dario Agger, the CEO of Roxxon Energy and a former President who can transform into a Minotaur. This role is inspired by a character from the comic books, the Mighty Thor's greatest foe. Bale's ability to channel the intensity and darkness seen in films like American Psycho makes him the ideal choice for this role.
As the curtain prepares to rise on the epic saga of Marvel Phase 4, the cast list continues to grow, bringing with it new heroes and villains who will shape the narrative of the MCU. The stage is set, and fans around the world hold their breath, eager to see how these characters will impact the story.
