Superman star says his first comic book role in an X-Men movie was a "missed opportunity": "There was a lot they could have done with the character"
Edi Gathegi t🍨hinks playing Mister Terrific is "undoing the wrongs" of ܫhis previous comic book movie role

Superman star Edi Gathegi thinks his role in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new DC movie will "undo the wrongওs" of the comic book character he played 14 years ago.
He's set to play Mister Terrific in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:James Gunn's upcoming take on the Man oಌf Steel, but over a decade ago he starred in 2011's X-Men: First Class. Gathegi played Darwin, a mutant capable of "reactive evolution," which enables him to evolve and adapt to any environment, but he didn't last very long in the franchise after Da♏rwin met an untimely, not-comic-book-accurate end.
."I was waiting to be brought back [after First Class] because, as you know, the character doesn't die," he continued. "The fact that ꦚhe died in the first one isn't that big of a deal꧅ if he does what he does in the comics, which is come back. Every movie that came out and the character didn't come back, it solidified that it was a misrepresentation and a missed opportunity."
However, Gathegi thinks that playing⛄ Mister 🅰Terrific in Superman "is kind of undoing the wrongs of Darwin. I know that as it stands right now, this isn't the only project that I'll be in."
Only time will tell what those future projects may be, but Gunn recently said that he's working on a Superman follow-up movie – although 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查🌊询:i𓄧t's not necessarily a "straight-up sequel."
Gathegi stars alongside David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, and Nicholas Hoult in Superman, which is the first big-screen installment in Gunn's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:DCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters.
