Default Cast the Marvel Universe

This is based on a thread started by ComicChick, "Who would you cast in the DC Universe.

I thought it sounded fun, so why not ask the same about Marvel?

Post your casting choices for any marvel character, doesn't matter if they have a movie in the works, have already been in a movie, or will never have a movie at all.
Who are you choices for playing Marvel characters?

I'd buy McKidd as Banshee. Much better role for him than anything Thor related IMO.

Yeah, I like that one the most

Dum Dum Dugan- Ted Levine



Iron Fist- Charlie Hunnam



Luke Cgae- Idris Elba




Terror Inc- Johnny Depp
Yeah, this one needs explaining. Depp is awesome with eccentric characters. Nonconvential characters seems to be his thing so between Terror from Terror Inc and Spider Jerusalem (just for the spot on Thompson impression) should be the characters Depp plays.

The Sentry

although I dont think Sentry will ever make it to film. Ive always liked Brad Pitt in unconvential leading man/non-pretty boy roles. (Se7en, 12 Monkeys, even Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Oceans movies he has a real comedic turn)

Now if he doesn't play him I might be upset. Great casting.

Still trying to think up my own.

He can be, but only because he's an introverted, socially-awkward but basically well-intentioned geek that has been given a job where he has to boss people around in order to keep them relatively safe. Cyclops is sometimes (maybe even often) somewhat annoying, but it's not intentional and he is always motivated by his love for his fellow X-Men. The movies didn't really bring out that aspect of the character. Mostly because they pretty much showed him only from the viewpoint of Wolverine, who was the likeable hero. So when Wolvie though that Cyclops is a d*ck, it was only natural that the audience felt the same way.

I believe those are casting suggestions from some of the characters themselves, as presented in the Ultimates.
