In an interview with ScreenTime, Evan Peters and Rebecca Hall appeared to be extremely enthusiastic when asked whether they are likely to make an MCU comeback. Evan Peters first entered Marvel-adjacent territory as Quicksilver (Peter Maximoff) in X-Men films, which he wants to play again to explore his character more deeply.
"We could bring you back[...] I'm in," Peters promptly responded to the outlet when asked if he would want more from the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Rebecca Hall shared that her character is dead in the MCU. Peters's last appearance in WandaVision as Ralph Bohner, a meta twist on Quicksilver, sparked huge fan debate and multiverse theories, thereby sparking hope to see the actor back in action.
Meanwhile, Rebecca Hall established her Marvel connection through her performance as Maya Hansen in Iron Man 3 (2013), which originally planned to include more of her character but ended up reducing her role because of script changes.
"We can reassmble my particles in cyberspace," Hall told the outlet, offering an idea of how her Dr Hansen, the scientist who helped create Extremis, could be revived in the MCU more than a decade after her last appearance.
Hall has acknowledged her past MCU involvement and said she would be prepared to return to the franchise under the right circumstances, even if it is not tied directly to the character, in various interviews, as has Peters, revealing to Deadline that he would love to be featured in another Marvel movie to move away from darker roles like that of Jeffery Dahmer in the Netflix series Dahmer: Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story. Though both stars have their Marvel threads intact, the studio has not confirmed their return.
While the MCU comebacks are yet to see the light, Hall and Peters' new collaboration, The Beauty, has all the spotlight at the moment.
What to expect from Rebecca Hall and Evan Peters' The Beauty
Evan Peters and Rebecca Hall star in The Beauty, a new sci-fi body-horror show created by Ryan Murphy and produced for FX and Hulu. The show also features Ashton Kutcher, Anthony Ramos, Jeremy Pope, Bella Hadid, Isabella Rossellini, and Ben Platt as part of its main cast, who perform in dark satirical roles that examine society's fixation on physical attractiveness.
Peters plays FBI agent Cooper Madsen in The Beauty, while Hall plays FBI agent Jordan Bennett, who investigates mysterious deaths linked to a virus that brings extreme beauty at deadly cost. The investigation expands into a major conspiracy that revolves around a tech billionaire's miracle drug, which promises to deliver absolute perfection but causes deadly side effects.
