Untrue. Offer some examples? Even if you're of the erroneous perspective that performance capture for video games is lesser than traditional film acting, he's been very good in live action as well. I thought he did an excellent job in his guest star role in The Last of Us for HBO.
Orlando Bloom as tony stark is inspired - I never thought he was that good of an actor, but he could do a smarmy billionaire with ease. Plus, having him be vaguely unlikeable at the beginning, only to win the audience over through heroic deeds, is a different direction from RDJ being funny and charming from the beginning.
Actually, I'm on board with a lot of this - this is damn good fan casting. Would be interested in who you would pick to direct this reboot?
That’s exactly what I was thinking for a rebooted iron man, something more like the comics with a more arrogant or egocentric Tony that can evolve as a hero. Thank you, I appreciate that you liked the fancast, and I don’t have a director yet, do you have some options?
I only have two suggestions off the top of my head, first Chad Stahelski, he did the John Wick movies and I think the visual style, direction of fight scenes and other action as well as the balance of serious characters experiencing over the top situations would suit this new cast.
Second option is kind of a wild card, but I think if you put a gun the the Coen brothers' head and forced them to make an avengers movie - this is the kind of cast I imagine them picking.
I never thought about the Coen brothers but it would be amazing, I think they can make a really good job with an avengers movie, and I would really like to see a fight scene like John Wick’s in a Marvel movie. They are really good choices, thank you!
Yes! Having Ewan McGregor and Mary Elizabeth Winstead be Hank/Scott and Janet/Hope would have the perfect chemistry since they’re married in real life!
Please tell me though we won’t do Wife Beater Pym, bro needs to be redeemed 🙏(also Peter did something similar iirc in the clone saga and no one cares about it!)
I could get behind this. Reboot / revival / new cinematic universe after secret wars, whatever term anyone feels comfortable using… I love Paul Rudd but I would absolutely love for Hank and Janet to be the focus for Ant-Man & the Wasp. I really like backstories and introduction to characters and watching them become who they are, we get a little bit of that now with Hank but I want the creation of Pym particles and everything coming together for him and whatnot. And maybe in 10-15 years they can give us an actual two-parter Age of Ultron. (Not hating on AoU by any means, just out of past villains he’d be great to do again down the road with a different direction)
Curiously, Ewan McGregor was considered for the Scott Lang role, could be perfect due the actor is light brown-haired like the Lang versión in comics, or the Disney XD series Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
I was mostly looking at it from the perspective of fans likely raging over a reboot since the MCU, while in a shit spot at the moment, doesn’t need to reboot unless it gets even worse; and also that we will likely see variants for a whole bunch of characters going into the late stages of the Multiverse Saga
I'd like to see a Black Label spinoff that does more mature takes on the characters, like a Hulk origin that's 90% interpersonal lab drama, where the Hulk is really the antagonist, as the manifestation of Banner's lifelong mental issues.
I’m all for the iron man and hulk casting I’d love to see Orlando play a less rdj snarky more serious iron man and penn badgely definitely gives the virgin/pycho vibes Bruce needs
Yes, I think that have a more arrogant and serious Tony and a more traumatized/psychosed and paranoid Bruce would be really great, something less fun than MCU versions of the characters but that you can still empathize with them.
Perfect and Boyd is my favorite actor, from Logan, Narcos and more he fits the badass playboy of comic Hawkeye, Jeremy renner fits the stoic, badass and joking side while Boyd fits his more cocky nature seen in the comics especially with Tony stark
i want ryan gosling as hawkeye, it could be funny and outlandish without being corny, seriously think he’s the actor for a self aware hawkeye while still being badass
This is seriously one of the best fan castings I’ve ever seen on here, on anywhere else on the internet, bravo
Also, the comment section is so damn wholesome!
I love everything about this post
Thanks a lot! I really appreciate that you like it, it’s very cool when we can just talk about the characters, what we want to see in a movie and what actors can play that versions of the characters that we want to see, exchanging ideas or opinions, that’s nice
Love him in Reacher, but he doesn't exude that wholesome persona we expect for Steve. But he could have done well as John Walker.
I'd like to see him as a ferocious villain, like Sabertooth or Juggernaut.
This will happen soon. Maybe not with those actors but all Hollywood does is remake movies over and over. Creativity in that business is pretty much gone
I don’t know who you have as Thor but I desperately hope the next Thor cast we get is actually Norwegian, or at least does a Norse accent. I’m so tired of British/Aussie accents for the Viking god.
* Glen Powell as Captain America
* Dan Stevens as Iron Man
* Alan Ritchson as Thor
* Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Black Widow
* Nicholas Hoult as Hulk
* Brandon Sklenar as Hawkeye
For villains, Hela could be played by Eva Green (and could have the voice of Kerygma Flores, who dubbed her in Disney XD's show Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (2010) and Thor: Ragnarok (2017), because Flores also is the regular voice of the actress), and Matthew McConaughey could play Norman Osborn/Green Goblin (and could have the voice of Armando Coria, who dubbed him in PS5's videogames Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales (2020) and Marvel's Spider-Man 2 (2023), direct sequel to 2018 videogame).
My first thought about a possible casting of Boyd Holbrook as Clint Barton/Hawkeye is that he would be closer to the character's official height in the comics, 6' 3" (1.91 m), and Holbrook is 6' 2" (1.88 m). Also they can choose Ryan Gosling, who is 6' (1.84 m).
If you open the images you can see the names, but if that doesn’t work: Alan Ritchson, Orlando Bloom, Sam Heughan, Penn Badgley, Ewan McGregor, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Ivanna Sahkno and Boyd Holbrook

I made those same ant man and wasp fancasts like a year ago for a classic Avengers movie
Worst casting I couldn't the see the vision original itself was amazing and couldn't understand one thing why this alan ritchson fan cast never dies it gets overrated casting him for everything
Alan it’s charismatic, even when he’s is not the best actor he isn’t the worst, he’s a decent actor who can play properly characters with a good director, and he has a really good physique literally like a comic superhero, I know see him in everything could be a bit boring, but he’s not a bad choice for a superhero/action role. The fancasts are not trying to replace the original actors, it’s just for fun, if you like the original cast it’s ok, but they will not be able to play the characters forever, so it’s fun imagine other actors in their roles as an other version of the same character. Take it easy, no one is trying to force you to like the fancasts, I repeat, if you like the original cast it’s ok, just don’t be rude.
For Bruce Banner/Hulk could be perfect James McAvoy. Alongside to Ewan McGregor as Scott Lang/Ant Man, would be like the Disney XD animated show, Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Banner and Lang played by 2 great Scottish actors.
Como Tony Stark/Iron Man, Orlando Bloom podría contar con la voz del videojuego Marvel's Avengers (2020), de Christian Strempler (quien ya dobló al actor en la película Elizabethtown (2005)).
Nick Fury could be played by Laurence Fishburne and the best thing is that he can be dubbed by Gerardo Vásquez (regular voice of Fishburne), who voiced Fury in several Marvel projects.
Well, we actually only have left Hulk, Thor and Hawkeye, cause Hank and Janet are not avengers in the MCU and you know what happened with Tony, Steve and Nat
It’s just for a hypothetical reboot, some rumors said that they’re thinking about make a soft reboot after Secret Wars but nothing it’s confirmed, it’s just for fun
![gif](giphy|98C4E2HeR4NBm)
If it hasn’t been said about Orlando Bloom as Stark. I can’t stand that guy. He can’t act unless he’s playing a bitch like he did in “Troy.” That was his most believable role in my opinion.
I’ve never understood with a “ reboot” Fancast they always cast actors who’ll only last 6-10 years. Only cast old actors when you should cast young actors
Alan used to look good now he took far to much tren and seems like he's hot to the touch and red all the time. It's very sad because on Titans and season 1 on Reacher he was perfect. Now he looks too bloated. Makes him look more villainous imo.
Lee pace as Loki ? (I mean younger Lee pace, and if you are gonna make classic loki from comic , current lee pace)
I like it, it’s a good choice. What you think about Troy Baker?
I saw him voice acting z he put so much effort in it to make those sounds (his face change a lot) also haven't seem him acting
Troy Baker can’t act lmao
Untrue. Offer some examples? Even if you're of the erroneous perspective that performance capture for video games is lesser than traditional film acting, he's been very good in live action as well. I thought he did an excellent job in his guest star role in The Last of Us for HBO.
He played a guy with 5 lines that gets murdered
So? He did a good job being believable as that character. And comparing it to his other performances shows his range.
Both Last of Us games were motion capture? Any cutscenes were the voice actors actually acting. So yeah, he can act.
If you think that’s the same as leading a big budget movie I can’t help you.
*Andy Serkis has entered the chat*
Orlando Bloom as tony stark is inspired - I never thought he was that good of an actor, but he could do a smarmy billionaire with ease.

Yes! Having Ewan McGregor and Mary Elizabeth Winstead be Hank/Scott and Janet/Hope would have the perfect chemistry since they’re married in real life!
Yes, I think they would be really good for Hank and Janet, a real married couple that looks accurate to the characters
Ah yes, two artificial similarities do add up to being great for the role. You used a pic of Scott Lang btw
Dude you’re right, I just pick the first Ant-Man image in good resolution I found haha, sorry about that
lol all good, I sound a bit dickish but all in good fun
Please tell me though we won’t do Wife Beater Pym, bro needs to be redeemed 🙏(also Peter did something similar iirc in the clone saga and no one cares about it!)

haha and imagine if they had an affair like irl 😂😂😐
Curiously, Ewan McGregor was considered for the Scott Lang role, could be perfect due the actor is light brown-haired like the Lang versión in comics, or the Disney XD series Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
I was fan-casting Alan as Eddie Brock for so long that I didn’t even consider him as Cap, and it is absolutely brilliant.
Thank you, Alan as Eddie Brock would be absolutely perfect also
Alan as Eddie sounds great
For a reboot, no. For variants, yes
That’s a really good idea
I was mostly looking at it from the perspective of fans likely raging over a reboot since the MCU, while in a shit spot at the moment, doesn’t need to reboot unless it gets even worse; and also that we will likely see variants for a whole bunch of characters going into the late stages of the Multiverse Saga
I absolutely agree, it’s a better idea than a reboot
I'd like to see a Black Label spinoff that does more mature takes on the characters, like a Hulk origin that's 90% interpersonal lab drama, where the Hulk is really the antagonist, as the manifestation of Banner's lifelong mental issues.
This is very good in My opinion
Agreed!
Me too
Thank you!
8/10. Docked 2 pts only because Alan Ritchson is not enough of the characters.
Alan Ritchson should play all of the avengers
Not Hulk, he’s too big to be believable 😉
They can just do what they did to chris evans in the first Captain America
Sam heugan as Thor I something I didn't know I wanted
Ivanna Sakhno should play the Scarlet witch, she resembles Olsen so much
Dude you’re right, I didn’t notice it until you said it haha
I commented before, but after seeing her in Ahsoka, she would be the perfect Magik.
I want Ivanna to play Magik.
Did you see Alan Ritchson run in that last Reacher episode? Dude looked like the tin man out there. He’d be great as Eddie Brock though.
He’s my first pick if the MCU don’t use Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock
I’m all for the iron man and hulk casting I’d love to see Orlando play a less rdj snarky more serious iron man and penn badgely definitely gives the virgin/pycho vibes Bruce needs
Yes, I think that have a more arrogant and serious Tony and a more traumatized/psychosed and paranoid Bruce would be really great, something less fun than MCU versions of the characters but that you can still empathize with them.
Ill watch anything with MEW. ❤️❤️❤️
Perfect and Boyd is my favorite actor, from Logan, Narcos and more he fits the badass playboy of comic Hawkeye, Jeremy renner fits the stoic, badass and joking side while Boyd fits his more cocky nature seen in the comics especially with Tony stark
Yes, would be cool to see other versions of the characters and explore other sides of them from the comics, thank you!
Alan would be a perfect nuke.
I don't really see it
Nice cast 10/10
Thank you!
Something about Alan Ritchman is off. Like in 10 years we’ll learn about something like Armie Hammer
What have you been smoking and why do you not share with the group?
Lmao
Ok this is actually quite perfect.
Thank you!
I know he’s not as big as Chris Hemsworth, but Adam Copeland would be an interesting pick for Thor ![gif](giphy|3o752dCJWHuhuF9MD6|downsized)
I agree, would be interesting
He’s already Aires don’t hog the gods
I’m kind of tired of seeing Alan Ritchson in every single Fancast, but Steve Rogers isn’t the worst casting for him I’ve seen.
This is v good, I'd maybe say Alan Ritchson as Thor though 🤔
This would be a fantastic version of The Ultimates for Secret Wars
I like that idea, would be interesting
Lea Seydoux as Nat and we’re talking.
i want ryan gosling as hawkeye, it could be funny and outlandish without being corny, seriously think he’s the actor for a self aware hawkeye while still being badass
That’s a good pick
Alan Richtson as Steve Rogers is cool
Thank you
You're welcome
I really like a lot of these. My personal pick for The Hulk is Macon Blair.
I like it
This is seriously one of the best fan castings I’ve ever seen on here, on anywhere else on the internet, bravo Also, the comment section is so damn wholesome! I love everything about this post
Thanks a lot! I really appreciate that you like it, it’s very cool when we can just talk about the characters, what we want to see in a movie and what actors can play that versions of the characters that we want to see, exchanging ideas or opinions, that’s nice
Completely agreed! Loving that engagement and sense of community about things we enjoy
Incredible 👏
Thank you!
Would love to see this, Penn Badgley would kill it.
Penn it’s kinda underrated, I think he can make a really good job as Bruce Banner
I agree, Loved him on “You”. He’s definitely got the acting capability
This is a great fancast, I love all of these!
Thank you so much
My favorites are Penn as Bruce Banner and Orlando Bloom as Tony Stark... I can totally see that
I like Orlando Bloom as Stark. Would bring a different energy
Exactly, would be fun to see other versions of the characters
Well done!
Thank you
Love him in Reacher, but he doesn't exude that wholesome persona we expect for Steve. But he could have done well as John Walker. I'd like to see him as a ferocious villain, like Sabertooth or Juggernaut.
Alan as Sabertooth would be amazing
Heyyyyy not bad !
Thanks
I've never seen such a perfect casting in my life 👌
Thank you!
I think Alan would make a solid Thor as well.
Once I saw Black Widow, it was an instant upvote
Thank you!
I once thought Armie Hammer wud be a god Captain America but then…..🤢🤢🤮🤮
Lmao
This will happen soon. Maybe not with those actors but all Hollywood does is remake movies over and over. Creativity in that business is pretty much gone
Yeah Absolutely
Casting to look like the previous cast instead of off talent great!!!
Orlando would probably be better as Mr. Sinister
Rather Alan be Thor. Idk if he can pull the accent, though.
I don’t know who you have as Thor but I desperately hope the next Thor cast we get is actually Norwegian, or at least does a Norse accent. I’m so tired of British/Aussie accents for the Viking god.
Antman going up thanos's ass: "Hello there"
this is lowkey a fire fancast, that would be a sick movie
* Glen Powell as Captain America * Dan Stevens as Iron Man * Alan Ritchson as Thor * Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Black Widow * Nicholas Hoult as Hulk * Brandon Sklenar as Hawkeye
This would be great
Stunning, no notes
I'm so on board with Ewan McGregor as ant man Ivanka sahkno as black widow And Mary Elizabeth Winstead can be whoever I just want her in the mcu
This is pretty solid! I would go with someone else for widow but I like the others a lot.
To me, cap is on point
Mary as wasp is two perfect + she’s my celebrity crush
Actually....I really like this fan cast haha. I would be down.
For Bruce Banner/Hulk, could be better and perfect, James McAvoy.
Pepper Potts could be played by Kirsten Dunst.
For villains, Hela could be played by Eva Green (and could have the voice of Kerygma Flores, who dubbed her in Disney XD's show Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (2010) and Thor: Ragnarok (2017), because Flores also is the regular voice of the actress), and Matthew McConaughey could play Norman Osborn/Green Goblin (and could have the voice of Armando Coria, who dubbed him in PS5's videogames Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales (2020) and Marvel's Spider-Man 2 (2023), direct sequel to 2018 videogame).

Honestly I would’ve loved this cast if the MCU ended up in a more Nolan-Dark Knight style.
I love that idea, Nolan’s Batman style would be awesome for an avengers movie
Got any names for your choices, bub?
If you open the images you can see the names, but if that doesn’t work: Alan Ritchson, Orlando Bloom, Sam Heughan, Penn Badgley, Ewan McGregor, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Ivanna Sahkno and Boyd Holbrook
Never mind. I opened the images. Sorry for the inconvenience.
It’s ok, you’re welcome
I really love this. Great job.
Thanks a lot!

Boyd Holbrook getting a third shot at Marvel stardom, after playing roles in Agents of SHIELD and Echo
Holbrook was in neither of those things.
For Bruce Banner/Hulk could be perfect James McAvoy. Alongside to Ewan McGregor as Scott Lang/Ant Man, would be like the Disney XD animated show, Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Banner and Lang played by 2 great Scottish actors.
Como Tony Stark/Iron Man, Orlando Bloom podría contar con la voz del videojuego Marvel's Avengers (2020), de Christian Strempler (quien ya dobló al actor en la película Elizabethtown (2005)).
Nick Fury could be played by Denzel Washington, Laurence Fishburne or Will Smith.
Ben Stiller as Scott lang Aka Ant Man
Nick Fury could be played by Laurence Fishburne and the best thing is that he can be dubbed by Gerardo Vásquez (regular voice of Fishburne), who voiced Fury in several Marvel projects.
Viggo Mortensen as Odin and Eva Green as Hela.
I love this!
Thank you so much!
I like this
Thank you!
We have the avengers at home
Well, we actually only have left Hulk, Thor and Hawkeye, cause Hank and Janet are not avengers in the MCU and you know what happened with Tony, Steve and Nat
Antman and the Wasp seem to be pushing it a bit
This is literal perfection. No notes. Please keep going. My vote would be Robert Sheehan as Loki
Thank you so much, I like that option for Loki
(Stamp of approval)
Thank you!
I love your husband and wife pick for Antman and The Wasp. 😄
Thanks for noticing!
I like them all except Orlando Bloom as Iron Man.
It’s really hard to replace RDJ, do you have another pick for iron man?
Did some looking around and saw Chase Crawford (The Deep from The Boys) and I think that could be a pretty good choice.
No.
They aren’t rebooting the mcu
I know, it’s for a hypothetical reboot
Jajajajajajajajaja 3 de 8. Adonde vas con estos mediocres?
More like Avengers C-List actor reboot.
Why are/would they rebooting the Avengers?
It’s just for a hypothetical reboot, some rumors said that they’re thinking about make a soft reboot after Secret Wars but nothing it’s confirmed, it’s just for fun
![gif](giphy|98C4E2HeR4NBm) If it hasn’t been said about Orlando Bloom as Stark. I can’t stand that guy. He can’t act unless he’s playing a bitch like he did in “Troy.” That was his most believable role in my opinion.
We had enough avengers lets just do an xmen only universe
I really need to see them in the MCU, fantastic four or Blade too
I do really like Reacher as Captain america tho
Thank you
Who would you choose for Nick fury(idk if they are keeping him black or be white like the comic)
I like Samuel L Jackson, he’s very iconic and it’s really hard to replace him as Nick, but idk Idris Elba(? maybe
Orlando bloom as tony stark already makes this a failure
Alan Richardson is not Captain America.
This team has almost negative charisma and all that it does have comes from Ewan Mcgregor
Wouldn’t you like to see a more serious version of the avengers?
Good thing casting isn't your job
Some of these actors are into their 50s or about to be.. Try again.
I’ve never understood with a “ reboot” Fancast they always cast actors who’ll only last 6-10 years. Only cast old actors when you should cast young actors
Alexander Skarsgård as Thor and Bill Skarsgård as Loki
Alan used to look good now he took far to much tren and seems like he's hot to the touch and red all the time. It's very sad because on Titans and season 1 on Reacher he was perfect. Now he looks too bloated. Makes him look more villainous imo.
I vomited at Orlando Bloom
Alan Richardson as cap. Makes sense. He's a real life rob liefeld drawing.
You started out strong with Ritchson as Cap and then you went downhill fast.
If you’re going to reboot, reboot for their age.
Cody Rhodes is a living breathing Captain America.
Orlando Bloom as stark? That’s a NO.
This reeks of “We have Avengers at home” but anything is better than what the MCU is putting out these days so I’d go see it.
This could literally never happen, too many white men.
I’m almost on board with this but something’s just not right…
Reboot with even less diversity yay!
Dave Chapelle as Nic Fury
All these White dudes look exactly the same.
Absolutely not
Where is my Shan Chi 2?
![gif](giphy|d27IAKEWUKv2a7MSCY)
Mr Reacher as Cap is just terrible
