Namor is a character that has been the subject of intense scrutiny because he falls into the grey area of characters owned by Marvel and characters owned by Fox. However, in a recent interview, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed that Namour belonged to Marvel.

Essentially to the Marvel Universe what Aquaman is to DC, Namor is a child of Atlantean spy and a human sailor. His powers include super strength and flight as well as Merman powers (he can breath underwater and talk fish).

Who could play him? Keanu Reeves. The thinking man’s Nicolas Cage, Reeves can play fish out of water (forgive the pun) as we saw in John Wick and The Matrix. He’s well versed in action scenes and CGI acting and it also doesn’t hurt that he bears more than a passing resemblance to the character.
