8 Characters That Matt Smith Could Play In The Marvel Cinematic Universe

Matt Smith recently made headlines when he stated his interest in having a role in a Marvel movie. Of course, this sent shockwaves across the Internet, resulting in everyone and their mother putting in their own two cents about whom the former 11th Doctor should play. It was only a matter of time, too. Playing the Doctor gets you a large amount of nerd cred and Marvel hasn’t been shy about courting former Doctors for their projects. The 9th Doctor, Christopher Eccleston, played the villain in Thor: The Dark World (who was unfortunately so unmemorable that it’s not worth mentioning his name), and the 10th Doctor, David Tennant, played Kilgrave in the first season of Jessica Jones and cemented himself into one of the club of the MCU's best baddies.

Adam Warlock

At the end of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, the perfection-driven Ayesha reveals she has a pod where she’s creating the next step in evolution for the Sovereign race. She names the person in the pod Adam, which has since been confirmed as Adam Warlock.

In the comics, Warlock is a perfect specimen of super strength, durability, endurance, etc. Now imagine if at the start of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Ayesha opens her pod expecting an Olympian God of a man and it turns out to be… Matt Smith.

Don’t get us wrong, Smith is attractive in an alien sort of way, but he’s far from what a lot of people would call a “perfect-looking physical specimen.” Delivering such a character swerve is exactly the sort of thing James Gunn would do and it would fit within the humor of the Guardians franchise. Although the character of Adam Warlock will never be as important on screen as he is in the comics (he’s vital in the Infinity Gauntlet arc), casting Smith in the role would be the closest thing to a consolation prize that we can think of.
