20 Upcoming Movies Starring MCU Actors In 2019
17. Dhaka (Chris Hemsworth & Jay Ali)
Release Date: TBA 2019
This India-set Netflix thriller starring Chris Hemsworth is keeping things very much within the MCU family, given that it's being directed by regular MCU stuntman and stunt co-ordinator Sam Hargrave, while the script has been written by Joe Russo, and both of the Russo brothers will produce the film.
Hemsworth will play Tyler Rake, a mercenary hired to rescue the kidnapped son of an Indian businessman, while the supporting cast includes David Harbour and Jay Ali, the latter technically being an MCU star having appeared in the most recent season of Netflix's Daredevil as Agent Nadeem.
Hemsworth's unremarkable prior action thrillers and the lack of an experienced director suggest this one could go either way, but the God of Thunder certainly has the physical chops necessary to convince as a hardened merc. Here's hoping the script and direction live up to that.
