In the final few minutes of the above interview with IGN, Vikings star Katheryn Winnick is asked whether she wants to take on a superhero role, and her answer is exactly what you might expect it to be! "I would love to. Oh wow, there's so many. I'm such a fan of comic books. I grew up reading them; they were my idols. Like, these characters came to life for me! I don't think there's one in particular, but I would love to play an action hero." She then goes on to talk about how she already plays an action hero and what it is about these kinds of roles which appeals to her. She finished by saying, "If Marvel calls, yes, I will pick up the phone!" and only smiled when Captain Marvel was mentioned. What do you think of these comments? Share your thoughts below.

I've literally never seen anything that Winnick has been in, so obviously I don't get the fan support for her.

Emily Blunt for Captain Marvel, though? She'd knock it out of the park.

I love Evan Rachel, but she would be better playing a villain.

Winnick is the only one that has a tom-boy edge to pull it off.

She's my vote. Winnick is awesome. Hot, badass and a strong presence on screen. She should test for the role at the very least.

I haven't seen Winnick in anything, so can she actually act? Cause I know how some people just go by looks and not acting talent.

@malakas I love your Brit Marling choice. Can act, is a badass, and can definitely sell the ass kicking

I completely agree with @superherofan96. Blunt will be great as Drew!!!
However I wonder if she will agree to be a support character in the movie, Carol's best friend!!!

Winnick, Robbie, Stravhosky or even Alice Eve for Danvers will make me happy. :)
But I dont know, I have a weird feeling that they will cast JLaw... I hope not...

Why the [frick] are people not watching Vikings? Too busy watching barely passable comicbook shows?

I'd loce to see her in the role but the...
"Hmmm...er... Y-yeah comicbooks yeah superheroes and stuff I wouldn't be able to name you one so I'll say I'm a fan of all of them..."

Just admit it.
I like the fact that Henry Cavill admits he didn't read comics as a kid because he was in a boarding school.

She likes Comic Books, she knows martial arts and she can Act. She is perfect for Captain Marvel.

I LOVE ROUSEY.

The only thing is she has...two acting roles? It would be a lot to put a whole movie on her.
