Finn Wolfhard, famous for his work on Netflix's Stranger Things, is joining the MCU!
Finn Wolfhard, tightly off the back of his amazing appearance in Ghostbusters: Afterlife, is joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This Stranger Things star is one of many in that original cast who have gone on to make great things out of themselves and star in franchises even bigger than the one they made their name in.
Now, we're not sure as per who Wolfhard will be playing, nor in which project he will be starring in. He's a talented young actor, though, so we're pretty certain that no matter what the role is, he'll knock the ball right out of the park. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been pulling its shows of Netflix recently, though, but this won't be such an issue seeing as the MCU is now coming to Disney Plus.
Finn Wolfhard is Joining the MCU!
So yeah, Finn Wolfhard will be joining the MCU, according the GFR, who said that their inside source has discovered this little tid-bit, and that he's already signed and "ready to go". Now, it's a leak so we're not entirely sure on how accurate or truthful it is, but here's what the publication had to say on the matter:
We aren’t sure which project he’s signed on for. What role will he be taking on? Will he have a major part in the Marvel Cinematic Universe? We aren’t sure, though so far his career has seen him taking on big parts for major franchises, so it would seem a strong bet that he could be taking on a recurring character in multiple projects.
So yeah, it isn't confirmed - though nothing really is nowadays - so take it all with a pinch of salt. There are many questions to be asked, as was outlined in the article, but the idea of Wolfhard getting not just a role but a recurring role, must be pretty darn exciting for the bloke!
No matter how it all turns out, though, the MCU seems to be on fire at the moment! In fact, the entire comic book / superhero genre seems to be on fire! The Batman is an absolutely incredible film, as we established in our review, and there are a ton of Marvel projects that all look absolutely fantastic on the near-horizon. What's certain is that, if you're a comic book movie / tv-show fan, then there are good times ahead...
