After the role of Superman went to David Corenswet, the 40-year-old British actor might revive his superhero role in the costume of Captain Britain. It would start a new chapter in his life, and he has shown enthusiasm about being a Marvel hero. In an Interview with TheHollywoodReporter when he was asked about his take on being a Marvel superhero he said.
“I have the internet and I have seen the various rumors about Captain Britain and that would be loads of fun to do a cool, modernized version of that — like the way they modernized Captain America. There’s something fun about that, and I do love being British.”
The introduction of Brian Baddock would change the course of the narrative for Marvel’s Multiverse and this move is completely in favor of the trajectory Marvel is moving in.
The British actor might get to play the role of Captain Britain in the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World. However, if it happens, it would be a delight for his fans to watch him again as a superhero with a star-packed cast and in a bigger universe.
