Maybe you have ever wondered what the MCU films would have given with a totally different cast. Today we lent each other to a little game : that of imagining the cast of the avengers if the latter had been made by Netflix. We know it, the Netflix platform bets on inclusion. Male characters as they were presented to us might therefore become female characters (as is sometimes the case in comics), and actors of very varied nationalities might enter this Marvel universe newly controlled by Netflix. And it might look like this:
1) steve rogers / evan peters (american horror story)
Remark : we begin to know the principle of the multiverse. So imagine the Peter Maximoff des X-Men, whose actor made an appearance in WandaVision, embody the new Captain America in a Netflix-Marvel collaboration. Unlikely, but satisfying enough to imagine.
2) tony stark / Oona Chaplin (black mirror)
Comments : don’t we say that it is impossible to replace Robert Downey Jr. ? The Netflix team might have offered a woman in the Iron Man costume (in which case the latter might have taken the name of IronHeart like in the comics). And why not consider an actress with undeniable talent and charisma likee Oona Chaplin for this role ?
3) Thor / Alexander Ludwig (vikings)
Remark : Alexander Ludwig already knows the Vikings and their beliefs well. He might have made a very good Thor, offered by the Netflix team.
4) War Machine : rami malek (mr robot)
5) Black Panther: regé-jean page (the bridgerton chronicle)
Remark : to replace the late Chadwick Boseman, Marvel thinks of Shuri. Netflix might have thought of Regé-Jean Page, which marked the spirits in The Bridgerton Chronicle.
6) bruce banner / Tanner Buchanan (cobra kai)
Remark : Tanner Buchanan plays Robby’s role in Cobra Kai. With a sporty physique and a predisposition to play in series where you have to fight, he might have been a good match for an upcoming junior Bruce Banner.
7) black widow / anya taylor-joy (ladies game)
Remark : Anya Taylor-Joy is one of the most bankable actresses of the moment, and she has charisma to spare. She might have been la Black Widow de Netflix !
8) Hawkeye / elliot page (the umbrella academy)
Remark : the actor who made son coming-out transgenre is one of the leading actors in the series The Umbrella Academy. The Netflix platform might have wanted to highlight the actor to promote inclusion, given that the latter is already used to evolving in a show in which of the characters have special powers.
9) peter parker / caleb Mclaughlin (stranger things)
Comments : with a view to introducing Miles Morales, Netflix might have thought of Caleb McLaughlin to play the role of Spider-Man.
10) Captain Marvel / Ester Exposito (Elite)
Remark : the Duchess of Elite might she take control ? In any case, she has an undeniable leadership character.
11) Ant-Man / Kento Yamazaki (alice in borderland)
Remark : even if another problem related to the Quantum Realm occurred, we say to ourselves that Kento Yamazaki know how to get out of it, following going through all the stages of Alice in Borderland. We would trust him to do a good Ant-Man.
12) Vision / freya allan (the witcher)
Remark : Netflix might have taken the opposite of Marvel by not presenting Vision but Viv’, Vision’s daughter. We let you discover what the character looks like in the comics, and we let you imagine Freya Allan in this role.
13) La Guêpe / Ursula Corbero (The Paper House)
14) Scarlet Witch / Madelaine petsch (riverdale)
15) quicksilver / Hwang Jun-ho (squid game)
Remark : Evan Peters is already taken by the role of Captain America in this mix and twist made in Netflix. In the role of Quicksilver, we imagined the policeman of Squid Game, played by Hwang Jun-ho. He would have deserved to be able to take her legs around his neck, following all. And then both characters are now supposed to be dead, so it has a poetic side (and morbid).
16) rocket racoon / Jonathan Groff (mindhunter)
Remark : following protecting the world from serial killers, Jonathan Groff might well, following all, protect Earth a bit more fun.
17) falcon / sami outalbali (sex education)
18) nick fury / Omar Sy (lupine)
Remark : Yes, it’s quite a chauvinistic choice.
19) nebula / alisha boe (13 reasons why)
20) okoye / samira wiley (orange is the new black)
