Has Titus O'Neil Been Cast In The Marvel Cinematic Universe?
Looks like he's fallen into an exciting role...
Good news everybody, as it looks that WWE have somehow managed to solve the MCU's Thanos problem... by setting Titus O'Neil on him.
In a tweet that contained precisely 4x the amount of acceptable emojis for a man of his age, the leader of Titus Worldwide stated that he had slimmed down dramatically for a new role.
This is obviously to be taken with a pinch of salt as, despite having taken a bit of a risk on Dave Bautista for the role of Drax, it feels unlikely that Marvel would invest on the previously untested O'Neil for their next major film outing.
However, given the number of fun cameos the franchise have under their belt already, you couldn't rule out Titus appearing somewhere in a small part. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 afford a few moments screen-time to the likes of Sylvester Stallone, Miley Cyrus, Ving Rhames and David Hasselfhoff so anything's possible.
Now, without spoiling Infinity War, they is obviously an opening for new characters in the MCU, but who he could be playing - if anyone - is a total mystery at this stage.
There is currently no confirmation from Marvel on this but, with WWE.com happily covering the story, it might not be long in coming.
