Russell Crowe almost played this Marvel villain in the MCU!
Since last week is Thor: Love and Thunder to be seen in cinemas. The Marvel Studios are expected with the previous one box office result be very satisfied. Above $302 million the MCU film was already able to generate sales and thus left the competition from last weekend behind. Alongside Chris Hemsworth as Thor and returning Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, fans are also getting Russell Crowe seen in the current MCU film.
Marvel had two ideas for Russell Crowe
As we now know, the Gladiator actor in Thor: Love and Thunder is cast in the role of Zeus hatched. However, new drawings of the film that were recently released show that the Olympian god wasn’t the only idea the creators at Marvel Studios had for Russell Crowe. Accordingly, the 58-year-old was almost in a small cameo appearance as Mephisto seen.
Who is Mephisto?
The demon was first invented by Stan Lee and Sal Buscema in Silver Surfer #3 in 1968. Mephisto is referred to as the ruler of hell and is thus virtually the Devils of the Marvel Universe. Already in WandaVision fans had hoped for the villain’s debut. But it didn’t come to that. Below we have included the drawings that Russell Crowe as Mephisto demonstrate.
We don’t know why Marvel finally decided against the appearance. But it is conceivable that Mephisto – due to its popularity with the fans – might one day play a bigger role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe will play. On Wednesday is now the final of Ms. Marvel on. After that, it goes along on August 17, 2022 She Hulk continue at Disney Plus. Finished in the cinema Black Panther: Wakanda Forever on November 11, 2022 the MCU year.
