Invinciblecreator Robert Kirkman has let slip a major spoiler about who Steven Yeun will be playing in the MCU.
Yeun voices Mark Grayson in the animated Invincible show, adapted from writer Kirkman and artists Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley’s comic series of the same name.
“My good friend Steven Yeun is playing theSentryin a movie,” Kirkman revealed on alivestreamwith comic artist David Finch.
“He called me, he went in for a costume fitting,” Kirkman added, then seemingly realized he might be revealing a littletoomuch. “I hope I’m not – I don’t think this is a spoiler or anything that will get anybody in trouble. I don’t know, maybe, we’ll see. I don’t care, I don’t work for Marvel, what are they going to do to me?
“He said, ‘I just came back for a costume fitting for the Sentry,'” Kirkman continued. “‘I guess I only do superheroes that are yellow and blue.'”
Sentry is a character inMarvel comicswith incredibly powerful abilities, but he has a dark alter-ego named the Void, who is essentially an evil, mirrored version of the hero.
Yeun is joining the MCU in Thunderbolts, the upcomingMarvel Phase 5movie that features Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, Sebastian Stan’s Winter Soldier, David Harbour’s Red Guardian, Wyatt Russell’s US Agent, Olga Kurylenko’s Taskmaster, and Hannah John-Kamen’s Ghost. Harrison Ford is also appearing as General Ross, with Julia Louis-Dreyfus co-starring as Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.
