The Scouting Report: Peter Claffey and Odessa A’Zion

Industry insider Jeff Sneider has ignited the conversation by naming two rising stars currently on Marvel’s radar. Here is the breakdown of why these two are the names to watch.

• Beast. Peter Claffey is reportedly being eyed to play Hank McCoy. Standing at 6’5″ and coming from a professional rugby background, Claffey has the physical presence needed for Beast. He is currently starring as Dunk in the Game of Thrones prequel A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, making him the exact kind of “rising star” Marvel loves to secure.
• Rogue. Odessa A’Zion (known for Hellraiser and Grand Army) is the name tied to Rogue. At 25 years old, she fits the younger demographic Kevin Feige is prioritizing for the 616 version of the team, offering a fresh take that contrasts with previous iterations.
• The Long-Term Play. Marvel is looking for actors who can commit to a ten year journey. This is why we are seeing names like Claffey and A’Zion rather than established A-listers who may not want to sign a five-picture deal.
