We’ve been seeing more and more actors from China making the jump to Hollywood, and it seems like there’s a solid chance that could happen here, although a Chinese-American actor would apparently also meet Marvel’s requirements.
Clearly China doesn’t seem to feel like this is an entirely cynical idea.
They’re looking forward to a Chinese hero to be making it to the big screen, and the fact that somebody of another Asian culture won’t be inserted into the story is yet another reason for China to be excited.
