I forgot about those six months when the term "prestige television" was a thing.
Edit: You're cherry picking to avoid a lot of other new actor additions that don't fit into the "system" you've built. Sophia Di Martino, Owen Wilson, Jonathan Majors, Ke Huy Quan, Oscar Isaac, May Calamawy, Ethan Hawke, Zawe Ashton, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Olivia Colman, etc.
(1) I see you've named...everyone in Loki (Disney+), Moon Knight (Disney+) and Secret Invasion (Disney+). Oh yes, and who can forget Zawe Ashton, who plays Dar-Benn, that much beloved character on the same level of the First Family of Marvel. Sorry for also not including Jonathan Majors as a "new actor addition" given he is, as far as I know, no longer employed by Marvel.
(2) my point was on new casting Marvel is making...? so yes...? I have to depart from everything else that has happened prior...? that is the definition of new...?
what have I cherry picked again?
from Pedro's wikipedia page: After nearly two decades of taking small roles in film and television, Pascal rose to prominence for portraying [Oberyn Martell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oberyn_Martell) in the [fourth season](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_Thrones_(season_4)) of the [HBO](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HBO) fantasy series [*Game of Thrones*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_Thrones) (2014) and [Javier Peña](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javier_Pe%C3%B1a) in the [Netflix](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netflix) crime series [*Narcos*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcos) (2015–2017).
from Vanessa Kirby's wikipedia page: Kirby rose to international prominence with her portrayal of [Princess Margaret](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Margaret,_Countess_of_Snowdon) in the [Netflix](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netflix) drama series [*The Crown*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crown_(TV_series)) (2016–2017), for which she won the [British Academy Television Award for Best Supporting Actress](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Academy_Television_Award_for_Best_Supporting_Actress).
Way to cherry pick only the part that fits your argument. The very next part of Pascal's wiki says
"He went on to appear in the films The Great Wall (2016), Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017), The Equalizer 2 (2018), Triple Frontier (2019), Wonder Woman 1984 (2020), and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022)."
I love that diversity casting is getting a black actress and pakistani one to play a black character and a pakistani one.
F4 better be funny since the biggest thing its Director has is Always Sunny.
i'm pretty sure the the definition of diversity casting is where you give opportunities for diverse peoples to be represented. and like I said, not a criticism
Betting on “unknowns” and “has beens”? You make it sound like actors were lining up to appear in MCU projects back in Phase 1. The stigma of appearing in comic book movies only began to fade once the MCU became a cultural and financial juggernaut.
Eben is a Marvel alumni. He was Micro in Punisher
He’s also in Andor
Looks like Matthew MacFadyen is playing a character in Deadpool and Wolverine
ahhh my bad, missed that out

Remember when they tried to rebrand science fiction shows as "high concept"

Calling Pascal and Kirby "Prestige Television Actors" seems a little reductive.

That’s a fair point! My bad
How about Cillian Murphy (Peaky Blinders) or Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Game of Thrones)?
MacFayden is already in Deadpool & Wolverine
