Which Marvel Character WOULD YOU like to play/COULD YOU best play in a movie?

[NicoSuave]

We all have characters we like, and we all have characters we can relate to. Sometimes those traits go hand-in-hand, and sometimes they don't, but those characters develop places in our hearts.

Which of those Marvel characters would you like to attempt to do justice in a movie/which of those Marvel characters do you think you could best portray in a movie?

My answer: I'm an indecisive autistic kid, so I'd rather just talk to Marvel/Fox/Sony, and say to them, "I'll play whoever you think I can capture the magic of the best, but for the love of the Force, don't give me M.O.D.O.K.!"

 

[Kiltman]

Colossus, sans the whole being Russian thing ha.

Kinda quiet while being big and tall.

 

[Quasimod0]

Spider-man

 

[Mike Murdock]

I'm approaching 30, but I look 14. I'm short and scrawny. Given that, Peter Parker is probably the easiest. He's also, of course, very fun to play so I can't argue with that. Someone like Night Crawler who is skinny and has makeup works too. I'd love to play Daredevil, but I feel he is much taller than me.

While I'd love to play Thor, there is no way I come close to the physical appearance of Thor (not blond, not tall and muscular, ...still handsome ). Of course, if we could invoke the Worthiness clause, well... I try to be a good person.

In reality, though, I always identified with Beast as the character I most closely resemble or whose role I would fill if I were somehow transplanted into the Marvel universe. I'm not acrobatic like him, but I do have a thick build, I was a very good wrestler in my high school years, and I'm extremely hairy. I'm also the 'academic' type, so I've always liked/identified with the contrast between his outward appearance and his inner self.

That's me right there.

Cap has always been my favorite character, and I identify with the whole idea of "man out of time" -- I still hold some very old world 'white picket fence' American values.

That being said, I'd love to play someone like Deadpool on screen

Good thread,

Whilst i'd love to play Thor or Cap, I definitely don't have the height for Thor or muscles for either role. Considering i've been told I have occasional anger problems maybe Bruce Banner/Hulk would be the best option Although fanboys probably would argue about my young age for Banner

Funny characters like Deadpool , Spider-man or Hawkeye would be great as well and i probably fit the look a lot better for those guys

 

[R_Hythlodeus]

Hmmm..I have the blonde beard, the long blonde hair, sometimes even braided, the Norse heritage, I could be Thor if it wasn't for the Barbapapa-like body shape

 

[BoredGuy]

I could do Gambit or Winter Soldier justice facially

but I've become far too schlubby the past few years to pull off a superhero body

This is a tough one. As with others this would be after a I'm-about-to-play-a-superhero workout. I'm kinda short, I'm black, I have an earnestness about me, a deep voice, in my thirties but sometimes people think I'm a teenager. There aren't many characters that work well with me physically.

I think the *best* would be Gentle from The New X-Men. He's half Wakandan, half Russian, and I think that's the most spot on all around. Runners up would be Cloak and Night Thrasher. I think if I were taller I could pull of Black Panther, that would be a blast. Physicality aside, I'd have the most fun ever playing Cyclops. I'd love to give a new version of that guy a run.

Physically, 5 years ago my Wife said I made a good angry-Thor look-alike when I was in a bad mood (her words). If missing a little height and a ton of handsomeness (my words). Now? The same, but imagine Thor eating ice cream for dinner and pizza for desert every day for those 5 years....

Personality-wise..... What character is always making jokes and trying to be funny, but gets flaming angry when people don't believe him that one time, when he's being serious ?

 

[psylockolussus]

Psylocke! I can be fierce!

 

[Silvermoth]

Winter soldier maybe if I get some training done.

Actually probably a frost giant. I am a tallish man

 

[SirStrangefolk]

I am a young, skinny guy with bones in my fingers that have grown in such a way that I'm permanently stuck doing a vulcan salute and I usually walk on my toes. And I am pretty good at German (Germany is a neighbouring country for me). So I'm thinking Nightcrawler would be the way to go.

 

[ThatDamnNinja]

If I bulked up a bit, I could definitely pull of Shuma-Gorath.

As it stands, I could probably make for a pretty convincing Sporr.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I'd like to play the Silver Surfer on the count of I like to surf the net.

 

[tamron]

I think I'd make an awesome Hobie Brown aka The Prowler.

I'm a huge fan of Maverick/Agent Zero, can definitely relate to him, but my look is all wrong (not that that stopped Fox from casting Daniel Henney, lol).

 

[SlamAdams]

Who I WOULD and COULD like to play tend to be the same person because I would hate to take a role I wasn't right for.

Rich Rider or Rick Jones
