Uncle Fried Chicken revealed that he has contacted Marvel and wants to play the mutant leader Professor X

While Marvel won't be returning to the X-Men until after the Multiverse Saga, mutants are undoubtedly part of the MCU's big plans. Fans have been busy discussing who they'd like to see take on potential roles for the mutant team, and one name that keeps coming up is The Mandalorian's Giancarlo Esposito.

Over the past few years, Giancarlo Esposito has become iconic as the villain Moff Gideon in two seasons of The Mandalorian with Lucasfilm, and he will return in the third season next year. In addition, he also played the villain in Amazon's The Boys.

On August 5, at the "TJH Super Hero Car Show and Comic Show" held in San Antonio, Texas, USA, "Uncle Fried Chicken" Giancarlo Esposito made an appearance and revealed that he had discussed with Marvel about playing a potential role in the MCU.

He then listed a series of superhero roles that fans have fantasized about him playing, including two X-Men characters: Magneto and Professor X. When asked which one he would like to choose, he emphasized that he would be happy to play the leader of the mutants, Charles Xavier (Professor X).

Recently, Patrick Stewart played the old Professor X in a cameo appearance in the movie "Doctor Strange 2", although he was later brutally killed by Scarlet Witch.
