mormont Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Recasting isn't rebooting. Reboots usually involve a recast but they are not the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sifth Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I wonder if they'll do a Crisis on Infinite Earth's type story down the line, which basically just resets the entire universe. We already have a multiverse, so they're already halfway there, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartofice Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Bruce Banner is really the only major main character that has been recast in the MCU, and that Hulk movie barely counts as an MCU in my head. I don’t think they are really in the business of just recasting in the MCU with its main characters. They much prefer to groom new updated versions to replace them. I guess that is their hope with New Black Widow, New Iron Man, New Hawkeye, She Hulk etc.. so far that doesn’t look like it’s working very well. But yeah actually mostly when you do recast, you DO reboot. That’s been the case with Batman, Spider-Man, Superman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right but it would definitely be part of a reboot of the MCU. It's not like they're going to get Downey and Evans to commit to multiple films ten years from now.

Myrddin Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Multiverse allowed them to unite the three Spider-men, but that would've been an absolute bonkers idea just 5 years ago. But multiverse version of characters aside, we're not getting Tony Stark back in MCU without a reboot (thus presumably recast). Or Steve Rogers. Or T'Challa. Or Natasha Romanoff. They could, if they wanted to (Evans has recently said he misses playing Cap) like they did with Gamora. Not replacing an actor has never been an assumption in the past. We've had, what, six live action* Bruce Waynes across four timelines in the last 30 years? We've even had three Jokers from three timelines in just a smidge longer timeframe, which is amazing (in a good way). I'm sorry, four Jokers (if you count deleted scene). The nature of the MCU ongoing saga just make it unlikely. But these are comic books. How many ties has Magneto been "recast" in X-Men over the years. Older, younger, renewed, revillified, etc. Exciting times. *only counting movies, not television. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I think the success of Into the Spider Verse, is what convinced the guys at Sony and the MCU, that it could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumHam Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Spoiler I know the CIA has done some shady stuff, but doesn't it seem a little odd that Val is both the CIA director and the person Ms. Bishop called to have hawkeye killed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the context of Wakanda Forever just being released, a film where there were loud calls for T'Challa to be recast, it's important to distinguish.

RumHam Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Why is Marvel afraid of Namor’s bulge? Of course twitter would go down in flames before #ReleasetheBulgeCut could get off the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Anti-Targ Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 They did kill Tony Stark, so for Earth-616 RDJ can only be TS, because TS is dead. And if there is one thing I would object to it would be that Tony Stark returns as the the OG Tony Stark (not a TS from another universe) in some kind of soap opera-esque plot-twisty retcon where the infinity gauntlet didn't actually kill him. Though it can easily be done as long as you invoke quantumness as the reason. Of course with time shenanigans and no more TVA TS can always be brought forward as a past him. But there is no reason to bring TS back, because there is nothing particularly super about him aside from his genius, only the MCU does not lack for geniuses (genii?).
