Marvel Studios Has Had Discussions With Actors About Bringing CAPTAIN BRITAIN To The MCU

There are a lot of characters we're waiting to see make their MCU debut and it's now been revealed by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige that Brian Braddock himself could be next...

Marvel Studios has introduced us to a long list of characters over the years but there are still a lot of heroes and villains they hold the rights to who have yet to join the world inhabited by the likes of Captain America and Spider-Man. Among them is Captain Britain, someone whose roots are steeped in British mythology and ripe for exploiting if Marvel is keen on adding something new to Phase 4.

HeyUGuys.com recently caught up with Spider-Man: Homecoming producer Amy Pascal and Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige to touch on a number of topics (the video below is well worth watching for all of those) and specifically asked if we're going to see Captain Britain in the MCU. "We have discussed it. There are a lot of actors that come in and ask about that part, so we'll have to see..."

It's interesting that there are obviously British actors out there who have been lobbying for the role of Brian Braddock but it's hard to say for sure where he could be introduced. Like Black Panther, Captain Britain showing up elsewhere before getting his own movie might work best but we'll have to wait and see. What do you guys think? As always, share your thoughts in the comments section down below.

@Kevwebsz - He needs to get to the back of the line. Nova, Namor, Spectrum, Hyperion, Sentry, Blade, Quasar, Moon Dragon, Brother Voodoo, Blue Marvel, Ms Marvel, She Hulk, Spiderwoman, Angela, Wonderwoman, Hercules, Tigra, Ka-Zar, and Black Knight have been waiting patiently

@Kevwebsz - Yeah I would like them to go back to the Ultimate idea of countries creating there own teams, in some form of a arms race. Only problem would be that most of those sort of character are stuck over at Fox. Like the teams Excalibur and Alpha Flight.

@ConnorHawkeye - I agree! Namor should be introduced in the BP sequel. I would love to see them fight before going forces!

Can someone pitch me Captain Brittain? Powers, what's his appeal and such

@Bokis - wait about half an hour and you'll see mcu fanboy go abosorb his bio on wiki and pretend like they knew him for a longtime ago and judging you for not knowing him, and they will tell everything about him :p

@Krav - What time is it? Did I miss the deadline? lol

@Bokis - I'm surprised that Marvel has him, since he was so tied into the X-Men stuff. He's a magicky dude, with a King Arthur flavor. Led the Excalibur team in the 80's/90's which I read because I adored Nightcrawler, and as a result, I didn't pay much attention to Brian. So... as for appeal... you'll have to find someone who finds him particularly appealing.

His wife Meggan was a super hot nymph, though.

Oh man, thinking about it now, I used to ship Nightcrawler and Meggan so hard (before she was married, mind).

The Cap Britain comics from before Excalibur featured a lot of Arthurian legend, time travel and bad guys from other dimensions. That stuff mixes well with X-Men but Cap isn't a mutant, he just got appropriated because Claremont wanted to collaborate with Alan Davis, one of the best artists on comic history and the definitive Captain Britain illustrator.

@TheFamousJMC - not a mutant, but isn't he Psylocke's brother?
Spock0Clock
Spock0Clock - 6/27/2017, 4:48 PM
@ODanil - He is. Psylocke was also a Captain Britain for a bit (before she was Asian).

AwesomePromoz
AwesomePromoz - 6/27/2017, 4:49 PM
@ODanil - Yeah he is! Obviously she is 100% X-men, but as has been said, Cap doesn't seem to be on the finite list of characters owned by Fox. Feige would probably know that list by heart by now.

@Krav - LMFAO!!! TRUE, but then watch Marvel turn the character mainstream.

@Bokis - Brother of Psylocke.
