Fans of the Invincible series are curious about whether or not Jon Hamm could play Omni-Man and which actor could play Mark Grayson in an Invincible live-action movie, which is reportedly in development. Here are your queries answered.
Could Jon Hamm play Omni-Man in Invincible live-action?
Jon Hamm is a good fit for live-action Nolan Grayson, aka Omni-Man, as he resembles the character and has the acting chops to handle the character’s personality shifts. However, the finalization of Hamm as Omni-Man depends on the actor’s willingness to take on the role.
Hamm not only has the looks and physique necessary for Omni-Man’s portrayal but also has the acting and emotional range required to take on the complex role that involves various personality changes, proven by his performances in projects like Million Dollar Arm, Mad Men, and Baby Driver. Moreover, he has also portrayed a character similar to Omni-Man, albeit without superpowers in Mad Men, that being an apparently caring and doting father who has a dark secret.
However, Jon Hamm’s Omni-Man casting all depends on the actor himself and if he is ready for it, as the Mad Men actor has reportedly expressed his avoidance of superhero roles due to their long-term commitment factor.
Which actor could play Mark Grayson in Invincible live-action?
Ryan Potter, Derek Luh, and Mackenyu Maeda are three actors who could pull off a great live-action Mark Grayson.
Out of all three aforementioned actors, Ryan Potter is a great pick for the role of Mark Grayson as not only does he share the character’s Asian-American heritage, but he also has experience playing a superhero as he previously played Beast Boy in Titans. Moreover, Potter will also have the time to bring Mark to life now that Titans has ended.
Derek Luh is also a good fit, as like Potter, not only does he have the heritage required to play Mark Grayson, but he has also played a superpowered character Jordan Li in The Boys spin-off Gen V.
Mackenyu Maeda is yet another great acting candidate for Mark Grayson, as he also has the heritage and acting range required to pull off the character.
