“I don’t know, I’m always looking at what I have to do right now… I know there’s talk and conversations around, and I don’t know how much is true,” the Emmy winner told ET. “I don’t even get that from my team, I can’t tell if it’s true or not.”
Colman then expressed his admiration for the MCU and its enthusiastic fanbase.
“The fans are passionate,” he said. “Somehow my name is out there in the world [and] I like the idea of just having your name called and someone speaking lovingly and kindly about something is a beautiful thing.”
Although Colman didn’t offer much for fans to read into, time will tell if he’ll become Marvel’s next big bad!
In fact, the star shared his desire to play a Marvel or DC villain back in 2021.
“I think I’m ready now. I’m worked out, fit… I just want to be the villain. I don’t want to be the good guy. I actually want to do some really dirty, nasty work,” he said during an interview with AwardsWatch.

Karen Idelson Though there are still those who view animation primarily as a kids or family form of entertainment, over the last year many of the most challenging, risky stories have been told by the modern masters of animation.

Makoto Shinkai’s “Suzume” earned well over $300 million in international box office.
