Jeremy Allen White tipped for Marvel role as new rumors fly

According to HollywoodscooperDanielRPK, Jeremy Allen White is being “eyed” for a Marvel role. Annoyingly, we don’t have any further details, but it might remind you of how things went last time.

“I had a meeting for a kind of Marvel-y movie, and I had an attitude,” WhitetoldGQ in 2023. “I think I played it all wrong.” White was apparently skeptical of the project, telling executives, “Tell me about why should I do your movie. They were like, ‘F**k you.’ And I was like, ‘Right on.’

Upcoming MCU projects

“I am confused at how the pinnacle of an actor’s career has ended up in that place,” White continued. “They get really good filmmakers to do those movies and obviously they get really good actors to do those movies…I played it the way I wanted to play it.”
