Marvel announced: Ben Affleck will play the villain Minotaur! He really doesn't deserve Batman
For a long time, there have been rumors that Ben Affleck is returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And to play the villain in Marvel - the Minotaur. However, because DC was still undecided at that time, many fans still hoped that he could play Batman, but now Warner has decided to completely abandon the cinematic universe directed by Za, so Marvel finally announced Ben Affleck's return to Marvel recently.
Why is it a return? Mainly because Ben Affleck once starred in the Marvel super movie "Daredevil". It's just that the movie was a failure at the time, so the popularity was not very high, and later Marvel also shot a good "Daredevil" series, so Big Ben's return this time appeared as the villain Minotaur. It should be emphasized that this minotaur is not the kind of minotaur that everyone thinks. His original name is Dario Ager, a supervillain under Marvel Comics, who first appeared in the 2014 comic book "Thor: God of Thunder".
Minotaur in the comics
In the original comics, Dalio Ager was born into a wealthy family in Greece, he spent most of his life on an island in the Aegean Sea, when he was 9 years old, his entire family was killed by pirates, and little Dario escaped alone, hiding in a nearby cave, praying for help from the gods. Early the next morning, when the pirates found him, his prayers were answered, and in front of a bull statue, he was transformed into the Minotaur of Greek mythology, and the legendary Minotaur was born.
It sounds like this, at first glance, that the character is a monster with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. But in reality, like Dr. Banner, Dario Agger inherited the family legacy and was best educated, going on to become CEO of Roxon Energy, one of the world's largest multinational energy companies. is a character very similar to Norman Osborne (Green Goblin), the same cold, very calculating, very good at making money. That's why he tries to make as much money as he can, regardless of his environmental impact, and uses Roxon's vast financial resources to pay lobbyists and lawyers so that he can develop energy without being responsible for the pollution it causes.
Gradually, he even extended his poisonous palm into outer space, and is an extremely greedy and dangerous character. Like the Hulk, he is a smart guy in his human state, and once transformed into Minotaurus, his strength, speed, and physical strength are greatly improved. In a sense, since Ben Affleck can control such a smart, elegant, and powerful rich second-generation character as Batman, there will be no big problem playing the Minotaur.
Marvel's foreshadowing has come to a fever pitch
Now Marvel's foreshadowing has reached a white-hot stage, after all, Marvel has completed filming for most of the actors before the fifth stage, or almost completed the shooting. So they're going to have Ben Affleck play Minotaur Dario Agger in late Marvel's Phase 5 films, or early Phase 6 movies. Let's wait and see! On the other hand, Warner (DC) next door, continue to do sit-ups!
