Viola Davis Expresses Interest in Marvel Role, Pitching 'Iron Mania'

The Oscar-winning actress, known for her role as Amanda Waller in DC projects, humorously suggested a Marvel character idea during the promotion of her new film 'G20.'

Viola Davis revealed her enthusiasm for joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, citing her daughter's Marvel fandom as an influence.
During an interview at the premiere of her new film 'G20,' Davis jokingly pitched the idea of playing a character called 'Iron Mania.'
Davis is well-known for her portrayal of Amanda Waller in multiple DC Comics adaptations, with ongoing commitments to the DC Universe, including the delayed 'Waller' series.
Her potential crossover into Marvel would make her one of the few actors to hold significant roles in both major superhero franchises, though no Marvel casting has been confirmed.
The discussion arose as part of 'G20' promotion, where a scene humorously referenced Marvel by calling her character 'Captain America.'
