Comic-Con Marvel Panels Announce New MCU Actors

It was announced that Michaela will be playing Aneka, who is a combat instructor of Wakanda’s female special forces team in the comics.

The Narcos: Mexico actor was shown in his role as Namor, “king of a hidden undersea nation” (Atlantis in the comics).

Mabel, known for the Mexican movie El Baile de los 41, will be playing Namora — Namor’s cousin.

The Ozark actor will be playing Attuma, possibly the villain of the movie.

Dominique — who you may know from If Beale Street Could Talk — will be making her first appearance as Riri Williams/Ironheart in the Black Panther sequel before the release of 2023’s Disney+ show Ironheart.

A first look at Olivia in the upcoming series was shown. She appears to be a superior of Fury’s and says ominously, “You’re in no shape for this, Fury.”

A lot less is known about Emilia’s part, given that she didn’t speak in the trailer. She does, however, shoot a gun — so take from this what you will.

Marvel had to clarify that Regé-Jean’s inclusion on a cast list was incorrect. However, he was there for Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.

The Borat 2 star’s role as Cosmo the Space Dog (which appeared in the Collector’s museum in the first movie) was confirmed. 

Another DC to Marvel crossover — the Peacemaker star will be playing the High Evolutionary after much fan speculation.

Bill did accidentally previously spoil his Marvel appearance, but it was confirmed that he’ll be in the next Ant-Man as a character who inhabits the Quantum Realm.

Cassie Lang, aka Stature, aka Scott Lang’s daughter, will be played by Big Little Lies actor Kathryn Newton.

The Lovecraft Country star will be playing Marvel’s next big villain in the next Ant-Man — another version of his Loki appearance as “He Who Remains.”
