Read the Full StoryCaptain Marvel is getting ready to start production early next year. Casting news is going to be breaking periodically, beginning today with a Variety report that Ben Mendelsohn is up for a villain role in the film.
Mendelsohn is no stranger to villain roles, having played one in The Dark Knight Rises and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, among other films. There is, however, a more powerful force at play here than typecasting. Captain Marvel would reunite Mendelsohn with his Mississippi Grind directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck.
