Guardians 3: 10 Actors Who Could Play Adam Warlock

This role would be quite a departure from Ali's usual performances, but we're sure that he'd manage, with his recent portrayal of Ray Nadeem in Daredevil being a highlight of that particular series.

Much like Mahershala Ali, the issue of him playing two MCU characters doesn't really matter, due to Marvel's aforementioned lack of concern over actors returning to the universe as someone else.

Plus, with the character of Ray Nadeem not actually being from the comics, Adam Warlock would actually be Jay Ali's first proper Marvel character. Taking him from being an FBI agent to a space warrior is a big enough jump that the only real comparison that could be made about them is that they have the same face, there being very little in the way of similarities between the two characters.

Whatever the case, Ali would be a wonderful choice and it would be foolish for Marvel not to bring him back for at least another role in the future.
