10 Characters John Krasinski Could Play In The MCU

10. Doctor Octopus

Once Marvel gained the rights to include Spider-Man in the MCU, it seemed almost inevitable that we'd see another version of Otto Octavius, aka Doctor Octopus, aka Doc Ock.

The classic Spidey villain would feel right at home in the MCU. He's the perfect hybrid of goofy and menacing, with his mechanical arms both silly and threatening to our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

Though the next MCU Spider-Man villain will most likely be Kraven the Hunter, introducing Doc Ock somewhere along the line is still a possibility, and Krasinski could bring some serious depth to the character.

He has the right physicality for the role, and slapping on the pair of Dwight Glasses and haircut he wore in the Office episode Product Recall would even make him look the part. Alfred Molina, who played the role in Spider-Man 2, will be a tough act to follow, but if anyone can do it, it's Krasinski.
