Idris Elba has perfect role for Matthew McConaughey in Marvel Cinematic Universe
If the 'True Detective' star decides to join the superhero franchises, Elba has a suggestion.
Hollywood actor Idris Elba says he wants to see his Dark Tower co-star Matthew McConaughey to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe as a young Odin.
The 44-year-old actor has been starring as Heimdall since the first Thor movie back in 2011 and would like to see McConaughey portray a young version the All-Father of all the Nordic Gods.
Speaking to MTV News, Elba says, "In Marvel world? There's a couple of versions. He could be Thor's dad. Play a young version of him. Smash it."
Odin, who is the father of Thor, is currently played by Anthony Hopkins who last reprised his role in Thor: The Dark World in 2013.
Elba is set to reprise his role of the all-seeing and all-hearing guardian sentry of Asgard, who stands on the rainbow bridge, in the third standalone movie, Thor: Ragnarok.
