Thanks to new details, we can not only assume the role Stallone will occupy, but how Starhawk will fit into Marvel’s future.
Exactly which character from Marvel’s cosmic lore Stallone would be appearing as, and what role he would play going forward hasn’t been clear.
But if Starhawk is stepping in, it could offer an explanation… not to mention lay connections to even larger sections of Marvel’s cosmic mythology.
But given director James Gunn’s interest in telling original stories not simply adapting existing characters whole cloth, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that this incarnation of Starhawk is something new.
