If you guessed Wonder Woman, then congrats, you guessed correctly!

As many of you know, Birdman star Zach Galifianakis is always good for a joke between his comedic film roles to his hilarious Between Two Ferns web series. It looks like he was up to his usual hijinks when MTV UK asked him about which superhero he'd like to play. Check out the video below to find out what the funny Galifianakis, who is best known for his role as Alan Garner in The Hangover trilogy, had to say about the Amazonian princess. Also, find out how much he actually thinks about superhero roles in general. 



What do you guys think? Doesn't seem like Galifianakis is against playing a superhero, but which superhero or supervillain would he be a good fit for? Or would you guys rather see him as a supporting player in an existing or upcoming comic book movie? His buddy Bradley Cooper did just do the voice work for Rocket Raccoon, would Galifianakis be a good fit in the cosmic MCU? Sound off with your thoughts below!

He'd be a better choice than Gadot, that's for sure.

Well, he has the boobs for it. He should make his beard a bit more femenine perhaps.

After watching Birdman, i for some reason thought that he could be a solid Penguin in a Batman standalone

Just watched the latest episode of Gotham. Is there an article about the Joker? You can hear him laughing when the patients are trampling the nurse.

Or because they actually know what theyre doing and what theyre going for and fans do not but you know...Fans always end up wrong once they see the movie.

Marvel needs to grab him to play D-Man in a Cap film.

@NeoBaggins

now that i rewatched that scene, the laugh is a very joker type laugh

Nah, here's your MODOK or better yet the WATCHER.



Puk isn't part of the MCU so Galafanakis is ass out. I'm sure Marc Webb is up for miscasting him in something.

@supes123

The "whoop" part of the laugh is distinct, similar to Cesar Romero. And its isolated so you can hear it. Seems pretty deliberate.

Yeah def, i'm surprise i didn't catch it when i first watched the episode

Forget Wonder Woman. Cast him as a new ghostbuster in the all female cast

He could be:

A dwarf in Thor 3
Random alien in guardians 2
Hydra Bob in Civil War

Hahah but seriously, if they can find a part for him, why not?

With the only creative ideas coming out of the comics these days being gender bending and race swapping. Why not?

Come to think of it he could play a hilarious Galactus.

Mole Man, if Marvel got the rights back to F4. It's bad enough Fox ruined Doom once before and they're doing it again, I'd rather they not ruin any other F4 villains.

Detective Jacob Reisz, AKA the Shadow King's second human host after Amahl Farouk. White guy with a beard, no super physique required. Would love to see Zach play him pre-Shadow King as sympathetic, but after possession become frighteningly creepy. Shadow King has a sadistically playful side that might be suited to a comedian ready to take on a darker role.
