Thanks to Ms. Marvel we know that mutants exist in the Marvel Cinematic Universe so it’s only a matter of time before we see the most popular ones again. However, it is expected that this time they will be played by different actors and Giancarlo Esposito is interested in being Professor Xor Charles Xavier from the X-Men.
A couple of weeks ago we reported a movieweb rumor that Giancarlo Esposito was going to make his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the role of Charles Xavier, better known as Professor X of the X-Men. Although the rumor had no basis, it seems that it has reached Esposito’s ears.

This weekend was the TJH Superhero Car Show & Comic Con and one of the guests was Giancarlo Esposito, the talented actor who has become very popular since he appeared on Breaking Bad as Gus Fring. The actor’s popularity has increased a lot among geeks, as he has already played villains in Star Wars and Far Cry, in addition to having a major role in The Boys.
It’s because of that that we’re expected to eventually see Giancarlo Esposito at Marvel, and during his presentation at the Superhero Car Show & Comic Con he said he has already met with Marvel employees to discuss options. After this, the actor listed some of the characters he could play, before saying that the one he would choose is Professor X.
Giancarlo Esposito says he’s heard that people want him as Magneto, Victor Von Doom and Charles Xavier, but if he had to choose one he would go for Professor X of the X-Men. This is not a confirmation that we will see Giancarlo Esposito in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but at least we know that the actor does have an interest in entering the franchise.
