Giancarlo Esposito Has Been Cast In The MCU
Thanks to his role as Gus Fring in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, Giancarlo Esposito reinvigorated his career with roles in Parish, The Boys, and Revolution. He also portrayed the villainous Moff Gideon for three seasons on The Mandalorian. Since then, Esposito has made no secret about his desire to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, potentially as Professor X in the X-Men reboot. Now, Esposito has confirmed that he has finally been cast in the MCU, but his role remains a mystery.
Via Collider, Esposito made the announcement on stage at CCXP Mexico. Esposito indicated that he will not be following in Patrick Stewart or James McAvoy's footsteps as Professor X. He also suggested that he will be playing a character who hasn't previously been portrayed in the Marvel movies or TV shows.
"I cannot promise you it’ll be Professor X, because here's what I think," said Esposito. "I think that there's something about being original. We've seen different versions of Professor X. Wouldn't you like to see me play a character in a Marvel movie who is original, and new, and fresh? So, mark my words: This will happen sooner than you think."
