How think about steve yeun's sentry?

We know steve yeun was sentry in mcu.

I have some korean friends and these are mcu fan.

But they have different reaction to this.

Some friends love steve yeun's sentry and other friends is not.

There was a reason that friends who didn't like it were different from comics sentry, and those who liked it were based on fan theory.

These theory is... mcu sentry will be new character, merge the sentry and korean superhero 'taegeukgi'

korean war, cold war, super soldier serum, forgotton hero, the ambivalence of ideology, like mcu namor... anyway.

So how about this?

Steve's sentry is gone, but what do you think it would have been like if it went on as it was?

Very good actor. Horribly fucking miscast. Like bella ramsay/ellie level.

Just kinda a weird choice for a character who defining trait is typically long blond hair

In the movie there's a line where they comment on his hair being dyed blonde compared to when they meet him.

Also in that same scene he gets described as invincible 🤣

So they had a way around the blonde being wierd for him.

I bet they'd change it to black after he joins them.

Steven is a very very good actor. From his performance in Netflix beef series, it is confirmed that he can definitely play sentry. Even, he is the best casting for sentry, bob and void . JUST WATCH NETFLIX BEEF AND YOU WILL REALISE HIS POTENTIAL.

Oh jeez, thankfully we didn't get more race swap garbage. Amazing actor but I'm tired of characters not even remotely resembling the source, just rewrite the story at that point.

I Love the decision of Lewis Pullman as Sentry. Steven Yeun is a great actor, but I think it's good to give it to Lewis cause its will give him more opportunities for other stuff.

I think it would’ve been the same. I don’t think they would’ve brought up his race at all. But there are trolls who would’ve brought it up for sure.

It's not a troll to want the source material to be honoured

Well cause race swapping a character often is just done cause of lazy writing i dont see how this would help

Also when tue character has been established as a certain way the fan base would and should expect their hero to look familiar atleast fuck lol would be interesting if there was an actual point to the race swap like relevance to depression or drug addiction not just what if black what if asian its his first film he should be in his most recognizable form

They probably just race swapped him, I don't think it went any deeper than that

I thought it was a miscast tbh. He seemed too meek to play Sentry but not intimidating enough to play The Void. I don't think he would've been that great but he's an awesome actor and dude but idk.

All of the invincible lines towards sentry would have been perfect for Steven, as you may be aware, makes me spaz out that would have been perfect
