10 Huge MCU Casting Rumours For Marvel's Phase 4
4. Daniel Radcliffe As Moon Knight
Daniel Radcliffe has done a lot to reinvent himself since playing Harry Potter, and while his earlier efforts weren't great, he's recently caught people's attention with quirky roles in movies like Swiss Army Man and Guns Akimbo. However, could the next logical step be a superhero franchise?
That's what one rumour would have you believe, because after baseless (and downright ridiculous) claims that he could play Wolverine, we've heard that Marvel Studios might actually want the British actor to suit up as Moon Knight on Disney+. Honestly, all Radcliffe needs to do is pack on some muscle because he'd be a great fit for the unhinged vigilante.
In the comics, Moon Knight is a former mercenary who believes he received his new persona from an ancient Egyptian God known Khonshu. However, Marc Spector is not in his right mind and has multiple personalities, so no one quite knows what the deal with him is, and it's not remotely hard to picture Radcliffe effortlessly pulling that off.
For what it's worth, he has denied having any talks with Marvel Studios about Moon Knight, but when was the last time an actor admitted to something like this before being officially cast in a role?
