5 Actors Who Could Play Dual Roles In Deadpool 3’s Fox Vs MCU War

Deadpool 3 will be a collision course between the MCU and Fox’s Marvel universe, and five actors could fight their alternate selves in the movie. While the official plot details for Deadpool 3 are still under wraps, the rumors and speculations suggest that the film will be a multiverse journey as Deadpool and Wolverine travel from the Fox universe to the MCU. Plenty of characters are rumored to appear in the film, such as Jennifer Garner’s Elektra and Patrick Stewart’s Charles Xavier, but a few actors from the MCU also had roles in the Fox universe.

With these two universes entangled, it’s possible that these actors could fight their alternate versions. It’s important to note that none of this has been confirmed by Marvel, and it’s all a “what if…” scenario. Still, it’s intriguing to think about a fight with one actor portraying two different characters. It could lead to some amazing moments and give audiences a treat they never thought possible. These five actors could play dual roles in the Deadpool 3 cast and duke it out with themselves.

There is a popular theory explaining why the Fox Marvel characters are returning for Deadpool 3, but does the latest synopsis confirm or deny it?

5 Josh Brolin: Thanos (The Infinity Saga) And Cable (Deadpool 2)

Thanos (The Infinity Saga) And Cable (Deadpool 2)

Thanos

Thanos is the central antagonist of the Infinity Saga. All roads led to Thanos, and he delivered on his promise, wiping out half of the universe in Avengers: Infinity War. With immense power and intense determination, Thanos was almost impossible to stop, especially once he possessed all six Infinity Stones. The Avengers did save the day, restoring the population and defeating Thanos in Avengers: Endgame, but Brolin’s raw performance and phenomenal delivery made Thanos the best villain in the MCU so far.

Cable

Cable was teased by Deadpool at the end of the first film, and he finally appeared in Deadpool 2. He is a cybernetic mutant soldier from the future who goes head-to-head with Wade Wilson as he chases down a pyrokinetic kid to try and change his future. Cable’s full power abilities aren’t fully explored in Deadpool 2, but he has slight telekinesis and also has superstrength and durability, thanks to his robot parts. Brolin is fantastic in the role, and Deadpool 3 wouldn’t be the first film to reference that he also played Thanos.

Who Would Win The Fight?

Cable has a few advantages in this fight, mainly that he can manipulate time. No matter how many times he fights Thanos, he can go back and figure out what went wrong and fix it. Thanos is much stronger than Cable, and no matter how many weapons he has, it would be hard for him to take down the Mad Titan. If Thanos has the Infinity Stones, then the fight is over before it even starts. While Cable could put up an admirable fight, Thanos has the upper hand and would win the fight.

4 Jon Favreau: Happy Hogan (Various MCU Projects) And Foggy Nelson (Daredevil 2003)

Happy Hogan

Happy Hogan is the head of security for Stark Industries. He’s staunchly loyal to Tony Stark and has been the helpful left hand for Iron Man throughout the MCU. After Tony’s death, he became a mentor figure for Tom Holland’s Spider-Man and also had a brief fling with Aunt May. While not a main hero of the MCU, he has helped in more ways than audiences might give him credit for.

Foggy Nelson

Foggy Nelson is Matt Murdock’s best friend and the other half of their Nelson & Murdock law firm. While his friend delivers justice to criminals out in the streets, Foggy remains in the courtroom, utilizing the more legal and practical measures to help his clients. He is an important member of Matt’s life and often strives to be the voice of reason.

Who Would Win The Fight?

Foggy Nelson could be more intelligent than Happy Hogan, but in a one-on-one fight, Happy Hogan has this one covered. He has some fighting experience and has taken down several guards and henchmen during his time working for Tony Stark. Neither of them has powers, but Happy’s street smarts would get him a win over Foggy’s knowledge of the law.

3 Michael B. Jordan: Killmonger (Black Panther) And The Human Torch (Fantastic Four 2015)

Human Torch

Johnny Storm gained his fire powers after a quantum gate exploded and granted him and his friends super-abilities. They formed The Fantastic Four, with Johnny becoming the Human Torch. As the Human Torch, he can engulf his body in flames, fly, and manipulate the heat around him. While 2015’s Fantastic Four was a colossal flop with critics and at the box office, Jordan was a highlight as the Human Torch and brought the usual charm and charisma that he naturally possesses.

Killmonger

Black Panther is a significantly better film than Fantastic Four, and that’s mainly due to Jordan’s performance as the villainous Killmonger. Erik Killmonger is the nephew of King T’Chaka but was left behind after T’Chaka killed his brother. Fueled by an endless determination to return to Wakanda, Erik became an expert soldier for the Navy and marked all of his kills on his body. His noble goal to help black people around the world was unfortunately undermined by his sadistic and violent methods. Still, he made an impact on T’Challa and even defeated him in combat.

Who Would Win The Fight?

While Killmonger is an expert fighter, it’s impossible to fight what can’t be touched. His marksman skills would also be useless, as bullets don’t do much to affect the Human Torch. The only way Killmonger would have a shot is if he had the Black Panther’s abilities. Still, it would be a tough fight against a burning man who can control fire, so the Human Torch is most likely to win this battle.

2 Evan Peters: Ralph Bohner (WandaVision) And Quicksilver (Fox’s X-Men Series)

Ralph Bohner

Ralph is the cruelest trick that Marvel ever pulled on its audience. When Evan Peters arrived in Wandavision, everyone thought this was Fox’s Quicksilver, who somehow jumped universes and ended up in the MCU. He even dresses up as the blue speedster for Halloween, seemingly confirming that it’s him. Unfortunately, Marvel pulled a fast one on its viewers, and it turned out to be just a random Westview resident named Ralph Bohner.

Quicksilver

Peter Maximoff, a.k.a. Quicksilver, is the son of Magneto and one of the fastest speedsters in the universe. He has incredible speed and can even pause the world around him to manipulate it any way he wants, leading to some epic and hilarious scenes in X-Men: Days of Future Past and X-Men: Apocalypse. He’s one of the most powerful mutants in the X-Men universe and is a nuisance for anyone who tries to fight him.

Who Would Win The Fight?

Ralph Bohner is a random guy who lives in Westview. Quicksilver is an incredibly powerful mutant who can run faster than the speed of light. This fight isn’t fair, but Ralph is a fan of action movies, so maybe he’s learned something that could help him before Quicksilver ultimately takes him down quite easily.

1 Chris Evans: Captain America (The Infinity Saga) And The Human Torch (Fantastic Four & Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer)

Human Torch

Chris Evans’ Human Torch is similar to Michael B. Jordan’s, but he received his powers after being exposed to a cosmic cloud in space rather than a parallel dimension. He can still turn into a flying flame ball after yelling “Flame On!” and he can throw fireballs and bend the flames to his will. Since he is on fire, it can be very hard to defeat him, but he was bested by the Silver Surfer in 2007’s The Rise of the Silver Surfer.

Captain America

Steve Rogers is the ultimate hero. While he does have super strength thanks to the super soldier serum, his bravery and relentless nature would make him a hero even without superpowers. He is the leader of the Avengers and was a crucial member in the fight against Thanos. His stubbornness has led to disagreements with his fellow heroes, but he always stays on the side he feels is right, even if it goes against his orders.

Who Would Win The Fight?

As awesome as Captain America is, it would be difficult for the MCU icon to defeat Human Torch in a one-on-one fight. However, Cap does have the ability to use Mjölnir and harness the powers of Thor, and if that were the case, then Cap could win. Still, in a fight with no weapons except his shield, Human Torch would win despite Captain America’s willingness to do this all day.
