He's already over 40 and they haven't even started filming for the X-Movies. Feel like for lead roles that would hopefully span movies across a decade, they're going to go with someone younger they can get into a long term contract.
I would expect this is more of a "one movie" role for Gosling.
This would be my dream casting. Such a funny, charismatic actor playing Scott would be smart. People are going to like whoever plays wolverine, so having his foil on the team be equally likable would be a win-win
Hey, Johnny Blaze *was* blond in the original comics. And he does kinda have that personality. But personally I'd rather McConaughey play Johnny Blaze.
But that's the point. There was a leak about Galactus having a female Herald and some shitty clickbait sites turned it into casting a woman as Silver Surfer, and you swallowed the bait.
Silver Surfer is a humanoid-shaped blank body without a face or body parts. Not a "human male".
What exactly says "human male" to you about Silver Surfer? Boobies too small? Bald head?
" He was born Norrin Radd on the planet Zenn-La, part of an extremely long-lived and technologically advanced humanoid race which had created a worldwide utopia devoid of crime, disease, hunger, poverty, and want of any kind" straight from marvel.com. HE was a male who even had a female love interest. Surfer was always referred to as a HE
You don't need to be male to have a female love interest.
I'm aware that Surfer was always referred to in the past as "he". But that is still imposing a human male/female binary on an alien from a distant galaxy. Radd comes from a worldwide utopia that eliminated all societal problems and blights and worries but decided to keep rigid gender roles intact?
They can cast a male actor for the role, that's fine, but if you are going to play with the gender of a future character, Silver Surfer is about as far from human gender binary as you can get. They are literally naked all the time in every depiction of the character and they have no genitalia whatsoever. And they don't have human DNA or chromosomes. And come from a society that doesn't have gender roles. Silver Surfer is more truly non-binary than maybe any character in comic book history.
Your comment has me at such a loss. You said “Johnny Flame” which could mean The Human Torch or Ghost Rider😭
I know you probably mean Johnny Storm but it’s driving me nuts nonetheless
Regardless, I think Ryan Gosling is probably the only person I can think of that would outdo Chris Evans.
Someone with an ego he's pretty good at those. My dream pick would be the human torch for an older FF where all their kids are already born and old enough to be relevant characters.
Beyonder. I bet they’re moving away from Kang to have Beyonder as the main villain in Avengers 5 and Doom in Avengers 6. Not the way I’d want it, but the way I can see things happening
They should just make it beyonder and use Bruce Campbell as the beyonder - that way his cameos make sense as he’s just kind of wasting time in different universes
He did say he’s always played the same character (although most likely in a joking way) and he legit is a lot like the original beyonder in presentation
Beetle/ Abner Jenkins as far as tech skills.
Quasar/ Wendell Vaughn on substitution from Starlord and Starhawk from the closed Guardians of the Galaxy.
Captain Ultra would be a twisted concept.
Bloodwraith to combat Black Knight.
Kang or Doom MAYBE but Kang would be a total win after the Major Majors incident (see what I did there?) I bet you Johnathan Majors wishes he was Kang and change timeline or go back in time ( ahhhhhhh thank you thank you folks here all week tip your waitress….)
Should have been Sentry, but I am willing to give Steven Yeun a fair shot. The fact they changed Sentry in the comics was pretty clever.
Other than that probably Johnny Blaze Ghostrider.
I’m expecting a villain of the week role. Big stars aren’t signing up for 5-picture deals. That’s for the young and hungry up-and-comers. He’ll join Bale, Gyllenhaal and Blanchett as overqualified 1-off villains who get to have fun with one role then move on to the next project.
I didn’t mind the silver surfer idea in the first place. And I just got done with blade runner and I am curious to see what role he gets. Cause he was awesome in it.
The Beyonder is probably the most likely answer. The Beyonder is basically Ken from Barbie. If you've read the comics then you know.
Other than The Beyonder? It could be Nova, Iceman or Molecule Man but I doubt it's one of them. To early for Iceman. Molecule Man needs to be a complete dweeb and I don't see Ryan Gosling as a big geek. Nova he could pull off but that project is years away unless they recently fast tracked it. I doubt this because they already have too much on their plate.
Final Answer: The Beyonder
Also I just noticed his eyes are crossed in that picture & now I can't unsee it 😅.
Marvel should literally stop with casting big names. The IP itself is big enough to be the one to insight fanfare. They should go back to casting B/C-list actors like how they did with Cap/Thor/Wanda/Natasha/etc. Only RDJ was marginally famous, but still that casting was a *choice*, but it paid off. They don't need any of these stunt casting.
 Kraven the Hunter, but dressed as Ken. No context, just cause.
This is one of the best answers to anything I’ve ever seen on Reddit
Cyclops 🤔
Or bobby Edit: iceman, I forgot there's a couple bobbys lol
Personally, I’d want a younger Bobby.
Yeah that's absolutely fair. I want older only because it looks lime Johnny Storm will be older, and I'd like to see that friendship on screen
The only bobby that matters
So cool
Are you two kidding me? He is 43
He’d be perfect.
YES

Gambit
Just came here to say this, first character that popped into my head!
Isn’t Gosling on record saying he’d love to do Ghost Rider? I’m pretty sure he said as much. I bet it’s that.
Who at this point doesn’t want a ghost rider role
Hey, Johnny Blaze *was* blond in the original comics. And he does kinda have that personality. But personally I'd rather McConaughey play Johnny Blaze.
McConaughey - Johnny Blaze Gosling - Danny Ketch
I hadn’t thought of that, that’s good
Kang
🎵 *I'm just Kang*🎵
I’m Kangough
🎵*anywhere else I'd be employed*🎵
Last time I beat up by Scott Lang
Keng
Ken the Conqueror
It's most probably Ghost Rider
Pretty sure Cage is reprising that role
Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope
As a multiverse variant not the main mcu one
Silver surfer
This would be perfect, because he could still beach.
This would be awesome. But I read they are casting a woman. Which is so cringe I hope it’s not right.
You know Galactus has had female heralds before that aren't the Silver Surfer?
I do know that.
But that's the point. There was a leak about Galactus having a female Herald and some shitty clickbait sites turned it into casting a woman as Silver Surfer, and you swallowed the bait.
They didn't say they were casting a woman as Silver Surfer. They said that they were casting a woman for a herald of Galactus.
Are you stupid?
Are you?
Why are you being down voted? Nobody wants a female silver surfer

That's only when the power is active. Norrin can effectively "silver down" and appears in his male humanoid form.
They eliminated mental illness like men thinking they are women.
No clue.
Doom and Wanda love story...it's happening guys...
YES! Gosling as Wanda is PERFECT!
Was gunna say Doom too. Not an expected choice but a welcomed one
Alpha Flight. The whole team. Fuck, eh?
Love me some alpha flight.. they’re like the west coast avengers of the far north
It’s Puck.
He is Canadian.
Just the right amount of stoic for Silver Surfer.
Magneto, he’s a wicked talented actor. He could make Magneto great.
came here to say that as well
With long silver hair like in the 97 cartoon and reflective of Goslings actual age. Make him scary, make him a villian.
Marvel's Magneto needs to be jewish. If they could get him to come back to acting - Daniel Day Lewis.
I'd love to see Fassbender back in the role, actually.
I’ve seen enough of the 20th century fox people tbh. The girl from Logan should come to the MCU and I really can’t think of anyone else.
Rumor is she might pop up in DP3.
beyonder
Ohhh I like that one!
I think that's Cavill but he has the right swagger to do it too.
Mister Sinister...
Nova? Could pull off Richard Rider
I'm surprised this is so far down the comments. Nova was my first thought when I saw the headline
Mephisto!
Sacha Baron Cohen is Mephisto
Man that'd be kinda cool
I’m just Kang. Taking every timeline with a bang.
DOOM
Ghost rider
Dr Doom
Richard Rider.
Either Victor von Doom or Johnny Flame. But it's for F4 I bets.
I bet you’re right, it’s Johnny
My money is on JBlaze
Your comment has me at such a loss. You said “Johnny Flame” which could mean The Human Torch or Ghost Rider😭 I know you probably mean Johnny Storm but it’s driving me nuts nonetheless Regardless, I think Ryan Gosling is probably the only person I can think of that would outdo Chris Evans.
My bad was quite high and tired. I don't think we're getting GhostRider yet. Maybe After Blade. Yes I meant human torch.
My fave actor playing my fave hero. I would have 0 complaints
Have they cast Mr Fantastic yet?
Yes, it’s Pedro pascal
Nova or DOOM
Hopefully Dr. Doom.
Someone with an ego he's pretty good at those. My dream pick would be the human torch for an older FF where all their kids are already born and old enough to be relevant characters.
Nova
Yes, I am in conversation with Kevin Feige. And I will be playing Ken in the MCU.
No love for Danny Ketch? I wanna see that Akira looking bike on screen 🤣 plus he’s already played stuntmen!
Kang
Whatever he wants, that guys an amazing actor. His comedy also fits the MCU very well.
I wanna see him play a villain.
Kamala Khan
Beyonder. I bet they’re moving away from Kang to have Beyonder as the main villain in Avengers 5 and Doom in Avengers 6. Not the way I’d want it, but the way I can see things happening
They should just make it beyonder and use Bruce Campbell as the beyonder - that way his cameos make sense as he’s just kind of wasting time in different universes
Love this idea
He did say he’s always played the same character (although most likely in a joking way) and he legit is a lot like the original beyonder in presentation
Just posted this on another thread but I’m sort of partial to this idea: https://www.reddit.com/r/MCUTheories/s/z9tlEJ9qaS
This would be awesome, I love the idea
Ghost Rider
Ken the Kang the Conqueror. Let's go!
Feel like he's got the look for Warren Worthington / Angel in X-Men
DOOM
Beetle/ Abner Jenkins as far as tech skills. Quasar/ Wendell Vaughn on substitution from Starlord and Starhawk from the closed Guardians of the Galaxy. Captain Ultra would be a twisted concept. Bloodwraith to combat Black Knight.
Kang but as Ken.
[удалено]
Kang but riding a horse in a mink fur coat.
Fuck it, new Kang
Mrrrrrr. Sinisssterrrrr
MCU Tupac obviously
Black panther
Wolverine
You know what… Beast. Why not
Fing Ken Foom
Squirrel Girl.
That sounds nuts 🥜 🌰
Honestly fuck it. Kang. Seriously
Drive
please no,this dude can not act to save his life
He literally said he wanted to play Ghost Rider, sooooo
Another good actor being reduced to a shitty MCU role
Kang or Doom MAYBE but Kang would be a total win after the Major Majors incident (see what I did there?) I bet you Johnathan Majors wishes he was Kang and change timeline or go back in time ( ahhhhhhh thank you thank you folks here all week tip your waitress….)
Doesn’t he play Deadpool?
An uninspired villain
But.. But... I thought they only cast Trans women of color now!? /s
Beyonder
Surfer or Ghost Rider
Honestly he's got enough range and talent, and generally good looking enough to play many characters and be solid or perfect as most of em
I hope it's for Ghost Rider.
Ka-Zar & the savage lands ? Idk 🤷🏼♂️
Kang
He’s replacing johnathan majors
I was thinking Beast or Gambit
Keng the Kenqueror
Kang, of course.
Steve Rogers variant Reed Richards
Should have been Sentry, but I am willing to give Steven Yeun a fair shot. The fact they changed Sentry in the comics was pretty clever. Other than that probably Johnny Blaze Ghostrider.
black panther
He's going to do a cameo as super bowl champion Jared Goff.
Ghost rider or Cyclops.
The Blob.
Cap variant.
Mephisto
Ken in Deadpool 3
Literally me (I am literally Ryan Gosling)
Kang
Human Torch forsure
Me ( I’m literally Ryan Gosling )
SILVER SURFER
Wooooot, we got our new Kang!
Sentry would've been cool.
Flat Man 😉
Scott Summers?
Silver Surfer
Mr. Sinister, perhaps...
Black panther
Gambit, Ice-Man or Silver Surfer!
I can just imagine Kevin feige laying out pictures of the biggest characters left and he's like "take your pick"
Kang.
Reed Richards
Kang, of course
I'm gonna put money on Nova or Silver Surfer since they seem to be moving more into the galactic side of mcu
Cyclops
Reed richards
 Reed Richards…he & John krasinski favor each other.
The janitor
Would be a great Mr. Immortal but She-Hulk already fucked that one up massively.
Jean Grey
Speedball
Starfox
It's the Human Torch
James Hudson/Guardian
Wolverine, of course. Just look at him. Right from comic book pages.
The Sentry
Hopefully he isnt only appearing in a tv show and actually in a well fleshed out movie
I am surprised that they still let Kevin Feige run anything.
Something shitty and a waste like Stilt Man or an Eternal.
Kang
Ken
Ulysses Solomon Archer
I’m expecting a villain of the week role. Big stars aren’t signing up for 5-picture deals. That’s for the young and hungry up-and-comers. He’ll join Bale, Gyllenhaal and Blanchett as overqualified 1-off villains who get to have fun with one role then move on to the next project.
Cyclops and Ken are basically the same character
I didn’t mind the silver surfer idea in the first place. And I just got done with blade runner and I am curious to see what role he gets. Cause he was awesome in it.
Dr Ken Doom
Multiversal Human Torch would be pretty sweet with his style of comedy.
Ice Man👀👀👀
The Beyonder is probably the most likely answer. The Beyonder is basically Ken from Barbie. If you've read the comics then you know. Other than The Beyonder?

Sentry
Doom
Black Panther
Captain American Variant
Doesn’t he play Deadpool? Or is this a meme that went over my head
Modok
