Viola Davis is the DCU's Amanda Waller, but she has no problem with a bit of Marvel mayhem. The Oscar winner recently revealed she'd be more than happy to join the MCU if the right part were offered up—because why have one comic book world when you can reign over both?
At Viola Davis' new film G20's red carpet, when she was asked if she wants to join Marvel, she said:
"Yeah, absolutely. I don't know what hero I would be, you know. I just, my daughter is a Marvel fanatic, so I've watched, I think almost all of them five, six times... Probably an Iron Man. I would be - maybe Iron Mania? Iron Shaniqua... Mania?"
From DC's Amanda Waller to a Marvel giant, this sounds like the greatest cinematic crossover ever. Whether she's outwitting Loki, reminding Doctor Strange who's boss, or scaring villains with just a glance, one thing is certain—Viola Davis in the MCU would be legendary.
As soon as the video went viral, someone (@John_Kramer741) took to his X account and commented:
"Everyone wants to join the mcu…"
Viola Davis showing interest in the MCU has fans giving the nod of approval—because now, who doesn't want in? With superheroes, multiverses, and an unlimited budget for showy entrances, it's Hollywood's playground all but guaranteed.
Whether she's commanding a team, destroying bad guys with mere presence, or intimidating even Tony Stark, one thing is for sure—Viola Davis in Marvel would be a power move.
Viola Davis even referencing the MCU was enough to get the internet in a tizzy, and fans have opinions galore. Some are already fan-casting her in strong roles, while others are simply entertained by how Marvel seems to draw the best talent like a movie magnet.
Whether folks are excited, skeptical, or here for the memes, the reactions are coming in, so let's get into the best ones!
