As a dedicated fan, I can’t help but share my excitement about the prospect of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)! It’s been revealed that Captain America 4 star Anthony Mackie has expressed his wish for this very thing to happen. Here’s hoping that King Khan will don an Avengers suit and bring his unmatched charisma to the MCU!
Notable Indian actors such as Farhan Akhtar and Mohan Kapoor have previously been part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe through the 2022 series “Ms. Marvel”. Conversely, Shah Rukh Khan, one of the most celebrated actors globally, has not yet graced a Hollywood production, despite his illustrious career that stretches over three and a half decades.
Captain America 4’s Anthony Mackie praises Shah Rukh Khan, wants him to be an Avenger
Actor Anthony Mackie is actively publicizing the forthcoming film, “Captain America: Brave New World.” In a recent virtual chat with Indian social media personality Kevin Zingkhai, just days before the movie’s premiere, Mackie expressed an unexpected desire that was shared on Instagram.
As reported by Deccan Herald, during the conversation, Zingkhai inquired, “If you were given the chance, which Bollywood star would be your pick for the next Avenger and why?” Without hesitation, Mackie replied, “I believe Shah Rukh Khan would be ideal.” He went on to praise the Indian actor, stating that he is simply “exceptional” and perfect for the role of an Avenger.
It’s not a new idea that Khan could appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Back in September 2018, Stephen Wacker, who was previously the VP of Creative Development at Marvel Studios, mentioned during an interview with The Indian Express that he desired Shah Rukh Khan to be part of the MCU.
At that moment, he stated, “For any Indian content, it’s necessary to include Shah Rukh Khan. He must be a part of it.
Mackie expressed his desire for Khan to become an Avenger in the MCU, but as of now, the esteemed Indian actor hasn’t made his first appearance in Hollywood. In a 2024 interview with Variety, Khan stated, “I don’t want to come off as arrogant, but the role should match the stature that the Indian audience has bestowed upon me. I wouldn’t want it to disappoint.
