The Marvel Cinematic Universe is always growing, both in theaters and streaming with a Disney+ subscription . One of the most highly anticipated upcoming Marvel movies is Captain America: Brave New World , which will feature Giancarlo Esposito in a mysterious role . And the Breaking Bad icon recently reacted to MCU rumors he’s playing Professor X and more.
The cast list for Captain America: Brave New World is stacked, featuring a mixture of new and returning actors. The Mandalorian actor's role hasn't been confirmed yet, leading to a number of fan theories. Some fans particularly want to see Esposito as Professor X , as the X-Men are expected to have a major role in the shared universe moving forward.
While recently speaking with ComicBook , Esposito addressed the ongoing discourse, offering: The fans really started the Professor X rumor and I loved it. I went along for the ride because I love the fans. I started thinking about Professor X, because I feel like that could be a character that I would really excel at, and really be great in.
They also talked about Magneto, they also talked about [DC's Mr.] Freeze, all of those things. I am so happy to be in the MCU.
I'm happy that you don't know what I'm doing there and I'm happy that I probably don't know what I'm doing there, but I'm happy to be there and you're going to see it soon. There you have it. It sounds like Giancarlo Esposito has loved seeing the ongoing chatter about who he could/should play in the Marvel Cinemati.
