"Uncle fried chicken" wants to play Professor X

"X-Men" series of characters and storylines in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is only a matter of time, this is also a potential consensus of many Marvel fans, and earlier I also said that it is unlikely that Marvel will proceed directly to the production of "X-Men" or a larger category of "mutant" related works.

A large part of the reason is that Marvel currently has a contractual obligation between the characters and actors of the previous "X-Men" series that is still being fulfilled, and as I said earlier, during the performance period of this contractual obligation, if Marvel wants to shoot or produce "X-Men"-related works, it will have to use the actors who signed these contractual obligations with Fox before They return to play.

And the contract expires in 2025.

So, some careful fans will find that Marvel in the previous San Diego Comic-Con, in 2025 this year directly screened the "Kang Dynasty" and "Secret Wars" 2 big plot IP, so to some extent is actually to put the current stage of the movie event in the end. The current phase of the movie will end in 2025.

In the subsequent stage 7, we will see the Marvel version of the "X-Men" related works.

Of course!

Although there is still a lot of time, Marvel is not idle, through some external media is not out of the news, Marvel seems to have started to prepare for some of the "X-Men" series of characters mapping negotiations, which is more typical of recent times - -

"Uncle Fried Chicken" Giancarlo Esposito!

This actor believes that many fans should not be unfamiliar, in the past few years "fried chicken uncle" Giancarlo Esposito in the "Mandalorian" play Moff Gideon and more and more fans know, of course, maybe more people know "fried chicken uncle "It is by playing the role of Gus Fring in the AMC series "Desperado".

Previously Giancarlo Esposito revealed at the JTH Superhero Car Show and Comic-Con in San Antonio, Texas, that he had met with Marvel Studios to discuss a potential role in the MCU.

Giancarlo Esposito.

"So, I haven't worked for Marvel and I was in a room with them talking to them and to answer your question, I think what they did was follow the mythological journey that Joe Campbell talked about and Joe Campbell happened to be a friend of George Lucas and George Lucas put his story in and they did the same thing. "

Giancarlo Esposito followed this up with quotes about some of the roles fans imagine him playing, including two iconic X-Men characters: Magneto and Professor X.

When asked to choose which one he would like to play, he told the audience that he would love to play 'Professor X':.

"So, there's talk about Magneto, there's talk about the Doctor. Some people talk about, who else do they talk about over there? Oh, Doom! And Professor X. Pick one? I wanted something a little different, and if I had to, it would be Professor X."

Of course!

There is not much official news from the Marvel side, but it seems conceivable that if the Marvel X-Men series after 2025, Marvel let Giancarlo Esposito play "Professor X", then perhaps it will also set off a wave of fan discussion.

Other than that, one of the points I can guess now is: "Why black again? Marvel even Professor X can play political correctness?

But if we put aside skin color, Giancarlo Esposito's acting skills are not a problem, many fans focus too much on skin color, but also based on the original or the earlier Fox films in the shaping of the character solidification, but from another point of view, whether it is DC or Marvel nowadays, the character "black" phenomenon is indeed This is undeniable.

However, as fans of the film, some people do not care about skin color problems and lies in the role and plot, some people are keen to restore the original just.
