Giancarlo Esposito is everywhere. We saw him as Moff Gideon in “The Mandalorian”, as Stan Edgar in “The Boys” and of course as Gus Fring in “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul”. But his leap into the Marvel Cinematic Universe is still pending. Already part of a franchise like ‘Star Wars’, Disney has already, never better said, in orbit.

And of course they’re not going to miss the opportunity to have him in their successful superhero franchise. Esposito himself admitted at a convention in San Antonio, Texas (via TikTok) that he had already had conversations with the House of Ideas: “I haven’t worked for Marvel yet. I’ve been in a room with them and talked to them And to answer your question, I think what they do is similar to the mythological path that (writer) Joe Campbell was talking about, who was a friend of George Lucas and that George Lucas put into his stories. they do the same “.
wants to be a mutant
While he didn’t want to reveal whether Kevin Feige’s team offered him a specific character, he has one at the top of his preference list: “There was talk of Magneto, there was talk of Dr. Freeze, there was talk of … who else am I connecting to? Oh, Doom! And there is Professor X. Choose one? I’m going to pick a slightly different one. I will say it and put it in the universe which is Professor X”.

At the moment it’s just a personal selection and, as we can see, rumors have tied him to all kinds of Marvel characters. The president of Marvel Studios has stated on more than one occasion that the X-Men are in his future plans, but when he revealed the MCU Phases 5 and 6 movies they didn’t appear anywhere. However, that show had no movie release dates yet announced, so any of them could fall under the mutants. What would you think of Giancarlo Esposito as Charles Xavier?
The actor is about to say goodbye to “Better Call Saul” forever. The “Breaking Bad” spin-off has only two episodes left to air, which in Spain we can see through Movistar Plus +. We also hope to see him in the third season of “The Mandalorian”, which will arrive soon on Disney +, and “The Long Home”, directed by James Franco, is awaiting a preview.
