There’s no rule that says actors can’t play a role in both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DCEU, and there are plenty of stars that have straddled both sides of the divide. Ryan Reynolds famously played both Green Lantern and Deadpool, while Idris Elba makes the transition when he suits up as Bloodsport in The Suicide Squad after five appearances as the MCU’s Heimdall.
Zachary Levi, Laurence Fishburne, J.K. Simmons, Djimon Honsou and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje have all appeared in both of Hollywood’s premiere shared universes, while Taika Waititi and Michael Keaton will be joining them when The Suicide Squad and The Flash arrive. You can even add Ben Affleck, Chris Evans, Tom Hardy, Josh Brolin and numerous others to the list if you count actors that have starred for both Marvel and DC without having necessarily shown up in one or both of the interconnected mythologies.
With her decade as part of the MCU set to draw to a close when Black Widow finally hits theaters, we’ve heard from our sources – the same ones that told us the Snyder Cut of Justice League would be heading exclusively to HBO Max months before it was confirmed – that Scarlett Johansson is considering the possibility of crossing the divide after reportedly holding talks with Warner Bros. about joining the DCEU.
According to our intel, the 35 year-old has been offered the role of Dawn Granger, better known as the second incarnation of Dove. Usually depicted as one half of a crime-fighting duo alongside Hawk, WB are said to be more interested in leveraging Johansson’s star power and having her headline another female-driven superhero blockbuster, even though Hawk and Dove can already currently be seen on Titans.
While nothing can be confirmed yet, and it remains to be seen if the actress even has any interest in jumping straight into another major franchise, a talent of Scarlett Johansson‘s caliber would be a solid addition to the DCEU’s roster of heroes nonetheless.
