On Instagram, the Russo Brothers (who are set to direct the upcoming Avengers films within the Marvel Cinematic Universe) posted the initial set snapshot of “Avengers: Doomsday” as they announced that production on the movie has officially begun.
It was a treat to witness Mohan Kapur’s Yusuf Khan and Tony Dalton’s Jack Duquesne reappear in Daredevil: Born Again, even though they’ve only been featured in three Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) productions altogether. In contrast, one less obvious character who made a comeback in Daredevil: Born Again has graced the screen in ten previous MCU projects, making this his 11th appearance and the 13th year he’s been part of the franchise. Despite his lengthy involvement, it’s possible you’ve forgotten that this character has ever been in the MCU, and you might have overlooked him in Daredevil: Born Again.
Throughout his life, as portrayed by Brent Spiner in shows like “Star Trek: Picard”, Lieutenant Commander Data kept a hologram of Lieutenant Yar. One of the most memorable episodes from “Star Trek: The Next Generation”, titled “The Measure of a Man”, even featured a statue of her, symbolizing his sense of personal identity. Though Michael Dorn excelled in playing Lt. Worf, who replaced Lt. Yar as Chief of Security, her presence continued to linger on the Enterprise. It’s no wonder then, over three decades since “The Next Generation” ended, that seeing Lieutenant Tasha Yar in “All Good Things…” is still a remarkable experience.
The Danish actor portrays an identical appearance and voice as he did in the 2017 film “The Square“, and his new character in “Bonjour Tristesse” bears a resemblance to a spiritual successor of his leading role in Ruben Östlund’s satirical movie. Both characters are charming womanizers who, with their carefree lifestyle, fill their schedules generously with money while being selfish. If you imagine what life would be like for the character from “The Square” if he had a daughter, then take a look at his latest film directed by Durga Chew-Bosev.
Despite frequently being overlooked due to more recognized names taking the spotlight in credits, Goyer’s skills are consistently impressive. Whether crafting a superhero story or constructing an entire universe from a concept, his work never fails to engage viewers. As he ventures into new projects like the Murderbot series and The Eternal Champion, it appears Goyer’s impact continues to grow steadily.
Over the last few years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has gradually introduced characters from the X-Men and mutants into its storyline. Some notable instances are the introduction of Charles Xavier in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” and Hugh Jackman’s character Wolverine playing a key role in “Deadpool & Wolverine”.
