Donald Glover has already made an appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the Prowler ( sans power suit , but nevertheless ) . But that does n’t intend he ca n’t appear again in the future , as other histrion and actresses such as Gemma Chang have already done as well as Alfre Woodard who portrayed both the adult female who do Tony Stark to be pro - registration inCivil Warand as Mariah inLuke Cage .

There ’s so many other roles that Donald Glover would in reality be stark for . However , there ’s a turn of others that just would n’t accommodate his personality or his acting style . Here ’s 5 characters he should and should n’t take on in the MCU .

SHOULDN’T: DOCTOR DOOM

Doctor Doom is one of the most charismatic villain in all of Marvel . Donald Glover could certainly attain that . However , Doom is also just a bit too villainous for Glover to take on ; he ’s not the sort of actor who can be so sinister .

Also , part of the appeal of Donald ’s performances are his facial grammatical construction . Hiding the player behind a masque for most of the movie sure enough would n’t do the production any favor . Plus , Doom demand to be a bit sure-enough to truly form .

SHOULD: MILES MORALES

Donald Glover has always express stake at playing Miles Morales . Although he play his uncle antecedently , we call up he ’d be absolutely complete as the raw Spider - Man . There may be a problem with that however .

Many , including Glover , think that he may now be too old for the role . However , there is a way around this ; by have the origin of the role changed so he only discovers his abilities geezerhood later , just at the fall of the first Spider - Man .

SHOULDN’T: NORMAN OSBORN

Norman Osborn is live to be a vast part of the next few age of the MCU . It needs to be an older valet take on the role , someone manipulative enough to be the mayor , but bonkers enough to be thevillainousGreen Goblin .

We ’re not sure Glover quite accommodate the government note and suffers from similar problems as he would have done as Doctor Doom . However , we ca n’t say we would n’t be concerned in his version of Green Goblin ; perhaps Hobgoblin would be more appropriate . As Norman though , we just ca n’t see it .

SHOULD: NOVA

Nova is untried reckless and still learn how to be a hero . We in reality think that although Glover is a little old once again , he could wreak a version of Nova who was learning how to utilize his cosmic might for the first time .

He has the humor for the persona and the straightaway timing , but could also carry the more emotional view that would be required of him as a leading . It would be certainly a everlasting swerve in terms of casting , as fans may expect Nova to be around 20 and play more immature .

SHOULDN’T: WOLVERINE

Wolverine necessitate to be ferine and completely off the rails . It needs an actor that add some animalistic quality to the character and in reality finger like he could kill you at any moment . We ca n’t really see Glover taking on this kind of use .

Donald Glover is quite stylish and clean cut . His look does n’t lend itself to Wolverine and although we know he ’s a versatile player , someone who work out so well in the clowning genre might not be as well suited to a character as serious as Logan .

SHOULD: PATRIOT

Patriot is a key penis of the Young Avengers and a spin - off of Captain America . Donald Glover has all the right qualities to be an inspirational leader like Patriot and we can see him lead an old version of the Young Avengers that have gone on ignored .

This could create some interesting narrative options , with Glover play a bitter edition of the role that was once inspirational and must discover once again what it is to be a hero . Give this human being a Disney Plus serial publication !

SHOULDN’T: ORIGINAL HUMAN TORCH

We ’ve briefly seen a adaptation of the original Human Torch in the MCU in a picture that look like it ’s taken directly from thecomics . Although the look has therefore already be defined , the role could absolutely still be recast .

However , the character is an android which might induce problems . The Human Torch is often present as quite personality - less . Since Glover has such a huge personality , we ’re not certain his manner would forge for fundamentally a sociopathic character .

SHOULD: CYCLOPS

A fundamental appendage of the ten - Men should be portrayed properly in the Marvel Cinematic Universe . Donald Glover might just be the man for the task . He ’s clean - stinger enough to take on this theatrical role but can also bring the reckless leader and the boy scout .

He has the perfect compounding of skills for this theatrical role and it would be interesting to see how he works around the purpose of his peak . We ’ve spoken about Glover ’s facial performances and perhaps bump off the eye from the equation would be a compelling challenge .

SHOULDN’T: REED RICHARDS

Reed Richards need to be a socially inept fertile guy that understands the error of his way . In the comics he ’s often portrayed as one of those hero who hurts the world as much as he helps it and other character reference in the MCU have worked in the past through this style .

Donald Glover does n’t really fit the bill . He also does n’t have quite the correct frame . Mr. Fantastic should be magniloquent and close to make the stretch effects face more natural . Glover might look a bit odd stretched out of proportions .

SHOULD: NAMOR

FOXhas now concede the rights of Namor back to Marvel after the Disney unification . The Sub - Mariner can therefore finally be used in the Marvel Cinematic Universe . There ’s already been rumors of his arrival be we could in conclusion see it shortly .

The persona should be purge in a way that allow for a nasty streak but also incorporates some of the charm that Namor has . Glover might be able to toy this role completely differently than we may expect , but we could see him stand out in it .
