Daniel Craig's time as James Bond reached its end with 2021's No Time to Die, and while the Knives Out series looks set to be an exciting new franchise for the British actor, could a superhero movie role be beckoning?
Well, as we're sure you're aware, Marvel Studios planned for the former 007 to play a member of The Illuminati, Balder the Brave, in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Unfortunately, scheduling issues led to that cameo being scrapped.
However, we don't think that's a bad thing considering what a waste of the actor being impaled on Balder's sword by the Scarlet Witch would have been!
Recently asked about his MCU near-miss, Craig played coy, leaving fans to wonder whether something else might be in the works for the actor.
Trusted insider @MyTimeToShineH is claiming that Marvel Studios has offered him another, undisclosed role. Needless to say, we're sure speculation will immediately begin running rampant about who this could be, with fans currently throwing out names like The Sentry, Magneto, and even Ghost Rider!
We wouldn't be against the idea of any of those, and as Marvel Studios looks to expand its recently acquired X-Men and Fantastic Four franchises, the possibilities are near-endless. Heck, shave his head, and Craig might not be a bad Professor X either.
The Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery star is relatively picky when it comes to acting gigs, so we're sure he won't say "yes" to anything that's come his way. Christian Bale shocked everyone when he signed up to play Gorr the God Butcher in Thor: Love and Thunder, only to be largely wasted, so seeing that might give his fellow Brit pause for thought.
Who do you think Craig could play in the MCU?
