Colman Domingo Seeks Live-Action Norman Osborn Role in MCU

Colman Domingo, a two-time Academy Award nominee, has expressed interest in portraying Norman Osborn in a live-action Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) role, following his current voice role in the animated series 'Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.' In recent interviews, Domingo emphasized his desire to create a unique character arc rather than simply replacing another actor, as seen in discussions surrounding the recasting of Kang the Conqueror. He confirmed that his character in the animated series will evolve into the Green Goblin in upcoming seasons, paralleling the mentorship role previously held by Tony Stark. Domingo noted the importance of authenticity in his potential MCU role, stating, 'I want to build something from the ground up that is my own.' The animated series presents an alternate timeline where Osborn mentors a younger Peter Parker, providing a fresh perspective on their relationship. Domingo's enthusiasm for both the animated series and a potential live-action role reflects his commitment to the character and the Marvel franchise.
