A while ago I talked about including 'Namor, the Submariner' is the live action 'Captain America' movie since that movie is set in WWII and they fought together as part of the 'Invaders'. This article appeared today.
Daniel Dae Kim of ‘Lost’ fame has said that he would love to play Namor the Sub-Mariner. Splashpage.mtv reports:
“Living in Hawaii, I’m always in the water," explained Kim during an interview with UGO, "And I think Sub-Mariner looks Asian. So I feel like if there’s any one I could play, it would be him. I’ve met with Marvel about a few other things, but if and when it becomes appropriate — sure, if they’d have me.”
I think it is brilliant casting. He already has the experience and acting chops to pull it off. Remember when he was 'angry Jin' on the first couple seasons of Lost? That was moody Namor to a T. A couple months of bulking up and wings for his feet and we gots ourselves a movie.
