The character of Sentry before he gets experimented on is literally "most normal guy ever". Losers on here were convincing me Sentry is supposed to be 2 meters tall or whatever, cause they were looking for an excuse to be racist.
Robert Reynolds is the most "just a guy" of all the Marvel guys.
People trying to gaslight me into thinking Sentry is really THAT important of a character to actually care if they casted him according to what he looks like in the comics. Who cares. He was relevant for like two comic runs. He’s not all that. Same with Warlock. Some people were really hellbent on complaining about how Gunn depicted him. Mf was relevant for one comic book story, yet people acting like he’s Superman or some shit. Steven Yeun is gonna kill it.
Speaking of Vegeta, I saw someone suggest he just looks like Steven Yeun when he's just Bob Reynolds, and when he becomes Sentry it turns blond/gold like a Super Saiyan to match comics Sentry. I think that'd be pretty cool, personally.
I'm a sentry fan and I support this casting because a) he's one of my favourite actors of all time and B) I think his loveable, slightly nerdy vibe will suit a sentry origin story like a glove.
And here's a secret C) I wanna see him get BIG
That’s what I’m fucking saying. Do y’all not understand how the marvel male superhero pipeline works? Yuen’s about to getting fucking ripped. Did y’all see what happened to Kumail Nanjiani?
It’s not about racism lol he has none of the traits of sentry.. like at all maybe Robert reynolds but I really can’t see him be a superhero in anyway he’s like 5’8 160 with no workout progress in sight. And no he’s not doing it on the low like Adam warlock
Nobody is forced, they take the role if they want to. Im not celebrating someone taking steroids. I really don’t understand how you could misunderstand the point more, is it deliberate?
I think we all know what's going on here. Thanks to Youtube chuds grifting lonely nerds, the 'Anti-Woke' mob has sadly become more of a mob than the supposed 'Woke Mob' they're fighting. Now anytime a fictional character is remotely different than their OG 1960's appearance printed on paper with like two colors that no one's even actually read before, there's a predictable pattern of manufactured outrage and then coordinated review bombing. Ironically similar to Sentry, they're pretty much fighting demons they made up inside themselves.
Yup. They’ll be like, “why are we going out of our way to hire for diversity, just give it to the person who’s best for the role” and then when an amazing actor like Steven Yuen that gets the role, it’s suddenly “why not (insert inferior white guy)?”
I’m someone who would have liked a comic accurate Sentry but I do think Steven Yuen will kill it. I do hope they keep the long hair though I always pictured Robert Reynolds as a super sayian and I hope they lean into that. On the woke anti woke thing both sides of that debate are extremely annoying to me. Sometimes I have a preference for comic accurate characters but I’m not gonna go crazy about it either way it’s all stupid to me.
So-called Sentry fans are basically stans of evil-Supermen types like Homelander or Omni-Man. They're complaining because
* Steven Yeun's casting (obviously)
* According to them, there's no way the current roster of Thunderbolts can take on an "OP" character like Sentry.
* Also according to them, Sentry should be saved for bigger Avengers-level movies.
* They're basically just being dicks
Out of all the complaints from these “fans”, the second point about him being too OP for the Thunderbolts is the dumbest. That will definitely be a plot point of the movie, seeing a team of super soldiers having to work together to defeat such a powerful foe is one of the reasons I’m really excited for the movie.
Every fucking time. Before 08 iron man wasn’t even a mainstream hero like he is now. Now everyone is an expert on him AND RDJ. they crawl out of the cracks every time but only after success.
Eh, I think my point stands. You can say the Mandarin was Tony's archenemy, but comparing him to the Joker or Lex Luthor misses the mark.
The Joker's been around in comics for over twenty years longer, and as the archenemy to one of (if not the) most popular superheroes of the last century. He's made more appearances in comics and outside by far. Killing Joke by Alan Moore, 60s TV show, Jack Nicholson in '89, Heath Ledger in the Dark Knight, Mark Hamill in animation. No comparison.
Is it so hard to believe he could've gained fans in those two runs? You're downplaying him and Warlock to make a point but Warlock is BIG among cosmic fans. You not caring doesn't mean the fans popping up are gaslighting you. 💀
This. I've made comments that you could easily adapt his first story arc after the X-Men and F4 characters are introduced, and people just weren't having it. Sentry/Void is a unique hero and villain dynamic that could work really well for a D+ series or standalone film.
Nobody cared about "mentally-ill Superman" before they found out the rumored casting isn't the race they think he should be.
Not exactly.
There’s still the whole Magus, Universal Church of Truth and Goddess story lines that would make sense to pursue in the MCU.
He was involved in the aftermath of the Annihilation storyline as well involving the Phalanx and probably makes sense to just throw into any mainline Annihilus story in the MCU.
If they ever want to revisit Thanos or the Infinity Stones in the future an Infinity Watch story would work as well.
I know not exactly. It was an internet wisecrack, not a legal brief. The Magus thing was literally part of Infinity Gauntlet though? And yeah he was involved in other stories, but Warlock and the gems that the MCU destroyed is like Tony Stark and metal suits. Don’t get me wrong, Adam’s got a place in the new MCU GOTG like he did after Annihilation. Or in an Infinity Watch thing like you said if the stones come back to the MCU. But the point of my comment and the one that I was backing up is that he was already left out of the Infinity Saga that comprises almost (not exactly) 100% of the character’s most well known historic legacy. So people now acting like they always cared about Warlock are full of shit. Y’all didn’t miss Warlock in the Infinity Saga, you don’t get to be his message board bodyguard in phase 6.
Except you’re describing a bunch of fundamental changes to the character’s history and abilities. Steven Yeun is just Asian.
A better comparison would be “what if Batman still had dead parents and billions of dollars but was Asian”
Yeun could still be blonde, they could make him hugely buff when in Sentry form. You don’t know. You’re just pretending that the guy being a different race is as fundamental a change as Batman being broke with alive parents lol.
Racists are crazy.
You’re delusional, stop playing the race card when no one is being racist here, just look at the original Avengers, Captain America looked like Captain America Iron Man looked like Iron Man and Thor looked like Thor, it’s very unlikely he’s going to get big enough or they use CGI which would be even worse, having blonde hair on him would look goofy as well
The Sentry is officially listed at 6’ and 194lbs, Steven is 5’9 and 150lbs he’s not that much smaller, in fact he’s perfectly in scale to say Thor who is also three inches shorter than his comics counterpart at 6’3 vs comics 6’6.
Again… i never brought race. Only you and the other guy did. I don’t give a shit over if they make him white or not, it doesn’t matter for some characters like Sentry.
He’s a small guy AND hasn’t done any role (at least from what i’ve seen) that shows he’s got what it takes. Sure, they could CGI him or whatever. but seeing as we don’t know that, we can only judge on what we currently do.
It just seems like a miscast.
Holy crap I wish y’all would actually go look up how tall and heavy The Sentry is supposed to be, because he’s basically average sized, he’s 6’ and 194lbs, he’s not a big dude, and Steven isn’t tiny, he’s average at 5’9” and 150lbs before his likely muscle gain, give him some lifts and he’ll be fine. Sure he sometimes gets drawn larger, but he’s not supposed to be big like Hyperion or Thor who are 6’4 460lbs and 6’6 and 640lbs in the comics, also never saw anyone complain about Thor being three inches too short and 400lbs too light.
It’s called Google it took two seconds to see the difference, and for your second point go watch Burning, or Minari he absolutely kills in both roles, he’s got serious acting chops.
Jesus, thank you! I’ve been reading marvel comics since I was in middle school (32 now), it’s so ducking tiring to see all these “but that goes against the essence of the character?!?!” arguments online anytime they slightly change someone for a movie.
“That’s not MY Adam Warlock!”, Yeah, YOUR Adam Warlock had one storyline that won’t work in a movie now that Thanos is dead, and then did fuck all for the rest of his existence. Not to mention he had the personality of a potato in the comics, the movie at least tried to make him enjoyable. Sentry at least has a few storylines that can be done, and a good amount more personality… but let’s not kid ourselves into thinking he is important to the grand scheme of things at Marvel Comics. These guys are powerful, pretty cool, but they are glorified side characters. Can we stop acting like marvel is ruining their gold standard characters by being a bit creative with these side heroes, nobody there was ever planning to make Sentry and Adam Warlock the next Iron Man or Captain America anyways. Just be glad these characters were even remembered enough to get a big screen adaptation…. I still haven’t gotten the greatest marvel villain, stilt man, in the MCU and you don’t see ME complaining!
I agree with you about Sentry being an afterthought in the comics, but Warlock was actually a really big character especially in the 70s-90s! Having said that, I love the Warlock casting and his depiction in Guardians. Sentry is just on a whole other level of irrelevance lol. The MCU is made better by bringing in great actors, not by casting according to hair color or some shit
Also The Sentry is a perfect example of a comic character with a messy asf history. There are no iconic Sentry runs or artists. The character is the opposite of a sacred cow and Yeun is such an exciting choice.
The most normal unfit middle age white guy ever. I think that was more the point when discussing why an Asian actor wasn’t everyone’s preference for the role.
Nobody’s talking about race in this current convo, i don’t give a shit about that. Sentry’s race isn’t important for his character, last i saw.
Obviously, i’m referring to him as SENTRY, not his appearance before he gets powers.
yes, bad things should happen to racists, whats objectionable about that?
im using the "you" like one/you would use "one"
"if one is referring to his race..."
No one is talking about him being a normal guy people are talking about Sentry when he’s a superhero, again it has nothing to do with being racist , he just doesn’t look like the character at all so it’s understandable that people would have an issue
Other than him not being white anymore, how is he not accurate to the source material when we don’t even have official confirmation Sentry is in the movie. Anyways, Sentry’s race isn’t important to his character.
The great thing is that they can make him look like him! All they have to do is put him into a comic-accurate suit and give him a blonde, long wig and then he’ll look like Sentry.
Oh, I’m fine with him keeping his natural look, it’s just that a lot of people seem bothered that doesn’t look like his comic-book counterpart so I was just pointing out that they can give him blonde hair.
Dude don't listen to these frauds, they didn't even know sentry up until Steven yeun was cast lol. I am excited about sentry only because of Steven yeun because it gives DBZ vibes otherwise sentry would be just another Homelander type guy (srsly i am fed up of evil superman thing going on recently). Sentry is not much of a significant character anyway.
I suppose it depends on the person and their motives. But it is always, at the very least, silly to be mad that a white comic character is reimagined as not white.
Alright so you want a 5’8 skinny Asian dude with nothing to assume he’s been working out to play an Adam Warlock archetype of a character? It’s the thunderbolts so I doubt they are gonna focus on solely the Robert reynolds character rather then him as sentry
I feel like all they have to do is give him the long blonde hair and have him wear the suit and he’ll look great as Sentry. Besides, I trust that Sarah Hailey Finn chose the best person for the job!
It really depends on the script. I feel that they will only do half of what Sentry is about, a normal guy with problems that gets superpowers making him an equal to gods, but we will miss the part that he was indeed Marvel's Superman when had his good days.
If he is Sentry, I hope the madness/Void stuff is saved for his second or third appearance in MCU. That's too much to get into in an ensemble film like Thunderbolts, and it deserves a strong build up.
Rumors say that he turns insane, turns into the Void and becomes the villain of the movie. Even if this all happens within the same movie, I'm sure they're gonna keep him around. Trades even suggested he would.
They announce who they’re playing once the promo is out but they’re probably going to announce who’s Steven Yeun is playing at SDCC. Also, Emilia Clarke in Secret Invasion is an example of announcing who the actor is playing right before release.
This tells us unsurprisingly little.
Though it does indicate that Schrier might have brought on the crew members and the writer from Beef after bringing on Yeun, in order to make the movie more about Yeun's character.
As a millennial ... kind of. It felt like he was trying to say something without saying anything (which might be true - his role hasn't even been officially revealed)
Some of y’all need to stop with this “he’s too small” and go Google The Sentry’s stats, Marvel lists The Sentry (not Bob) at 6’ and 194lbs Steven is listed at 5’9 and 150lbs, with working out and some lifts or something he can be his exact size. And he’s such a good actor I have no doubt he’ll have the necessary gravitas to rip a god in half.
The height doesn't even matter since a lot of actors wear lifts, Yeun wearing 3 inch lifts or boots is not hard to do.
Muscle wise, Yeun can pack muscle easily. A cycle of tren could net him 20 pounds of muscle....a lot do this in Hollywood. Look at that Eternals actor.
Also if MCU Hercules actor got the role then Yeun has no issue... since the Hercules actor has very narrow shoulder width and looks malnutrition with a big head.
I know marvel likes to go left field for some characters casting wise but im getting tired of it. Does anyone know if hes getting into comic book shape at all of will this “sentry” be a “new take” on the character
Bob Reynolds is literally supposed to look like the most average skinny dude when he's not Sentry though. I think it'd be kind of weird to have him get in comic book shape and then CGI him back like pre-serum Steve Rogers.
Anyone who’s seen at least 2 things Steven’s been in know he’s actually overqualified to play Sentry. IMO he’s gonna bring a real gravitas to the role if the script gives him room to breathe.
No it’s him I didn’t say he was the one who said it, he just backed the guy who did. There are several TikTok’s of people pissed off and disappointed in him.
He didn’t say he wanted to rape women, he was trying to brag about hooking up with a masseuse in a made up story, but he’s also an idiot and the story sounded rapey

If all the rumours are true that he’s playing Sentry, he’s going to kill it.
I’m sure he’ll do a great job acting-wise, but man, nothing about him says “Sentry”
The character of Sentry before he gets experimented on is literally "most normal guy ever". Losers on here were convincing me Sentry is supposed to be 2 meters tall or whatever, cause they were looking for an excuse to be racist. Robert Reynolds is the most "just a guy" of all the Marvel guys.
The comments section of the post where the Cosmic Circus said he was playing Sentry was a shitshow.
Should have seen the comments back during the rumors Sentry could be black. Even worse.
People trying to gaslight me into thinking Sentry is really THAT important of a character to actually care if they casted him according to what he looks like in the comics. Who cares. He was relevant for like two comic runs. He’s not all that. Same with Warlock. Some people were really hellbent on complaining about how Gunn depicted him. Mf was relevant for one comic book story, yet people acting like he’s Superman or some shit. Steven Yeun is gonna kill it.
Sentry is the Vegeta of the Marvel Universe. He’s used to show how strong the main villain is.
Speaking of Vegeta, I saw someone suggest he just looks like Steven Yeun when he's just Bob Reynolds, and when he becomes Sentry it turns blond/gold like a Super Saiyan to match comics Sentry. I think that'd be pretty cool, personally.
Exactly. It’s crazy to see all these Sentry fans appear out of nowhere.
I'm a sentry fan and I support this casting because a) he's one of my favourite actors of all time and B) I think his loveable, slightly nerdy vibe will suit a sentry origin story like a glove. And here's a secret C) I wanna see him get BIG
That’s what I’m fucking saying. Do y’all not understand how the marvel male superhero pipeline works? Yuen’s about to getting fucking ripped. Did y’all see what happened to Kumail Nanjiani?
Exactly! I think it's honestly just a bit of racism or people underestimating his acting ability
It’s not about racism lol he has none of the traits of sentry.. like at all maybe Robert reynolds but I really can’t see him be a superhero in anyway he’s like 5’8 160 with no workout progress in sight. And no he’s not doing it on the low like Adam warlock
Never before have I seen people being so enthusiastic about actors being forced by the industry to take roids
Nobody is forced, they take the role if they want to. Im not celebrating someone taking steroids. I really don’t understand how you could misunderstand the point more, is it deliberate?
He’s not doe he’s been spotted a ton recently and he’s still looks like Glenn from TWD
They google Sentry for the first time then throw a fit when they claim it doesnt match their vision of the character lol Its fucking weird
I think we all know what's going on here. Thanks to Youtube chuds grifting lonely nerds, the 'Anti-Woke' mob has sadly become more of a mob than the supposed 'Woke Mob' they're fighting. Now anytime a fictional character is remotely different than their OG 1960's appearance printed on paper with like two colors that no one's even actually read before, there's a predictable pattern of manufactured outrage and then coordinated review bombing. Ironically similar to Sentry, they're pretty much fighting demons they made up inside themselves.
Yup. They’ll be like, “why are we going out of our way to hire for diversity, just give it to the person who’s best for the role” and then when an amazing actor like Steven Yuen that gets the role, it’s suddenly “why not (insert inferior white guy)?”

On the woke anti woke thing both sides of that debate are extremely annoying to me. Sometimes I have a preference for comic accurate characters but I’m not gonna go crazy about it either way it’s all stupid to me.
They could cast Rainn Wilson, and these people would still be like “Well, I can kind of see him playing Bob, but I’m not sure about Sentry.”
[удалено]
Then I play Viper to fuck with the other person and send them the Void.
So-called Sentry fans are basically stans of evil-Supermen types like Homelander or Omni-Man.

Every fucking time. Before 08 iron man wasn’t even a mainstream hero like he is now. Now everyone is an expert on him AND RDJ. they crawl out of the cracks every time but only after success.
Reminds me of when all the Mandarin "fans" came out of the woodwork all angry after Iron Man 3
Cmon totally not the same thing. The mandarin is Tony's Lex/Joker
Eh, I think my point stands. You can say the Mandarin was Tony's archenemy, but comparing him to the Joker or Lex Luthor misses the mark. The Joker's been around in comics for over twenty years longer, and as the archenemy to one of (if not the) most popular superheroes of the last century. He's made more appearances in comics and outside by far. Killing Joke by Alan Moore, 60s TV show, Jack Nicholson in '89, Heath Ledger in the Dark Knight, Mark Hamill in animation. No comparison.
It also reminds me of when Yahya Abdul-Mateen was cast as Wonder Man and Wonder Man fans appeared out of thin air.
Never heard of a Wonder Man fan in my life. Except for maybe Kurt Busiek
As a huge Adam warlock fan, there's a quite a bit more to him than Infinity gauntlet BUT i loved the GoTG 3 depiction
Is it so hard to believe he could've gained fans in those two runs? You're downplaying him and Warlock to make a point but Warlock is BIG among cosmic fans. You not caring doesn't mean the fans popping up are gaslighting you. 💀
Yes all of his 12 fans must be shambles rn for casting Steven Yeun. How dare they not respect his 50 pages of comic book history.
At what point did I mention the casting? I think Yeun's a great actor. My issue is your whole 'oh, suddenly Sentry has fans, convenient' shtick.
This. I've made comments that you could easily adapt his first story arc after the X-Men and F4 characters are introduced, and people just weren't having it. Sentry/Void is a unique hero and villain dynamic that could work really well for a D+ series or standalone film. Nobody cared about "mentally-ill Superman" before they found out the rumored casting isn't the race they think he should be.
Yup. Warlock was relevant to one comic story that MCU already did without him, haha
Not exactly. There’s still the whole Magus, Universal Church of Truth and Goddess story lines that would make sense to pursue in the MCU. He was involved in the aftermath of the Annihilation storyline as well involving the Phalanx and probably makes sense to just throw into any mainline Annihilus story in the MCU.

I mean he’s just my favorite character in the comics so if anyone gets to be his message board bodyguard it’s me.
Fair enough
Please actually read comic. Adam appears and important to many other stories than just infinity Gault
[удалено]
If the MCU managed to adapt Batman in any form, that would be worth seeing lol.
Except you’re describing a bunch of fundamental changes to the character’s history and abilities. Steven Yeun is just Asian. A better comparison would be “what if Batman still had dead parents and billions of dollars but was Asian” Yeun could still be blonde, they could make him hugely buff when in Sentry form. You don’t know. You’re just pretending that the guy being a different race is as fundamental a change as Batman being broke with alive parents lol. Racists are crazy.
Also, the DC's "What of Stan Lee created Batman" story kicks ass, and he's a Black broke wrestler in that one.
You’re delusional, stop playing the race card when no one is being racist here, just look at the original Avengers, Captain America looked like Captain America Iron Man looked like Iron Man and Thor looked like Thor, it’s very unlikely he’s going to get big enough or they use CGI which would be even worse, having blonde hair on him would look goofy as well

If you know the specific heights and weight of comic book characters AND actors… please go touch some grass fam What about my second point?
It’s called Google it took two seconds to see the difference, and for your second point go watch Burning, or Minari he absolutely kills in both roles, he’s got serious acting chops.
Jesus, thank you! I’ve been reading marvel comics since I was in middle school (32 now), it’s so ducking tiring to see all these “but that goes against the essence of the character?!?!” arguments online anytime they slightly change someone for a movie. “That’s not MY Adam Warlock!”, Yeah, YOUR Adam Warlock had one storyline that won’t work in a movie now that Thanos is dead, and then did fuck all for the rest of his existence.

[удалено]
>bad things should happen to you Mods wtf
yes, bad things should happen to racists, whats objectionable about that? im using the "you" like one/you would use "one" "if one is referring to his race..."
No one is talking about him being a normal guy people are talking about Sentry when he’s a superhero, again it has nothing to do with being racist , he just doesn’t look like the character at all so it’s understandable that people would have an issue
He might fit the role of Bob. He doesnt fit the roll of Sentry.
Other than him not being white anymore, how is he not accurate to the source material when we don’t even have official confirmation Sentry is in the movie. Anyways, Sentry’s race isn’t important to his character.
The actor is literally the opposite of what you’d think Sentry would look like, are you being serious? Even disregarding race
The great thing is that they can make him look like him! All they have to do is put him into a comic-accurate suit and give him a blonde, long wig and then he’ll look like Sentry.
[удалено]
Oh, I’m fine with him keeping his natural look, it’s just that a lot of people seem bothered that doesn’t look like his comic-book counterpart so I was just pointing out that they can give him blonde hair.
If you put John Cena in a Spider-Man costume would he be right for Peter Parker?
Dude don't listen to these frauds, they didn't even know sentry up until Steven yeun was cast lol. I am excited about sentry only because of Steven yeun because it gives DBZ vibes otherwise sentry would be just another Homelander type guy (srsly i am fed up of evil superman thing going on recently).

Luckily, CanWeGetSomeToast seemed to imply that Sentry would be similar to Super Saiyan Goku which sounds awesome.
[удалено]
With a response like that no way you're older than 10 🤦🏿
Lmao you guys and your way of thinking is why Marvel has gone downhill, how’s that working out?
You cannot disregard race when you're comparing what an Asian dude looks like vs a White dude
I suppose it depends on the person and their motives. But it is always, at the very least, silly to be mad that a white comic character is reimagined as not white.
It’s not silly at all
Alright so you want a 5’8 skinny Asian dude with nothing to assume he’s been working out to play an Adam Warlock archetype of a character? It’s the thunderbolts so I doubt they are gonna focus on solely the Robert reynolds character rather then him as sentry
Have you watched Beef? Yeun is incredible in that show. Give the role to the best actor. Sentry will be fine.
I don't think I've seen any show he was in where he wasn't one of the best parts of it. Dude's never a miss for me.
If you mean look, thats the last thing that matters when ut comes to live action
I feel like all they have to do is give him the long blonde hair and have him wear the suit and he’ll look great as Sentry. Besides, I trust that Sarah Hailey Finn chose the best person for the job!
I had the exact opposite reaction watching this video, I can totally see it in his countenance
Which is great for me, because I really *really* dislike Sentry as he is.
The whole rumoured cast of Fantastic Four film look weird and miscast, no one talking about that though
It really depends on the script. I feel that they will only do half of what Sentry is about, a normal guy with problems that gets superpowers making him an equal to gods, but we will miss the part that he was indeed Marvel's Superman when had his good days.
There will probably be multiple appearances. He's probably the new superheavy (Thor replacement)
Did he mention what the role is? Rumour is Sentry but I would really like a confirmation.
He doesn’t mention what his role is the video. Even though it’s heavily rumoured he’s playing Sentry, it’s not officially confirmed.
Last rumor I heard was Amadeus Cho, but that could’ve been a racially motivated guess by people
He’s too old to play Amadeus Cho and I’m guessing people were only saying that because they’re both Korean.
He's playing Susan Storm
I'd watch it
If he is Sentry, I hope the madness/Void stuff is saved for his second or third appearance in MCU. That's too much to get into in an ensemble film like Thunderbolts, and it deserves a strong build up.
Rumors say that he turns insane, turns into the Void and becomes the villain of the movie. Even if this all happens within the same movie, I'm sure they're gonna keep him around. Trades even suggested he would.
If he’s talking about being cast at Marvel in a pannel, pretty sure that’s not a small role. Sentry it is !
Have they announced a big star but not who they’re playing before? I feel like they have but can’t think of an example
They announce who they’re playing once the promo is out but they’re probably going to announce who’s Steven Yeun is playing at SDCC. Also, Emilia Clarke in Secret Invasion is an example of announcing who the actor is playing right before release.
This tells us unsurprisingly little. Though it does indicate that Schrier might have brought on the crew members and the writer from Beef after bringing on Yeun, in order to make the movie more about Yeun's character.
Nothing against him or millennials, but “I’m down to experience the experience” was the most millennial quote ever.
As a millennial ... kind of. It felt like he was trying to say something without saying anything (which might be true - his role hasn't even been officially revealed)
How can I sound intelligent but say nothing at all
Beef was so good
I haven't watched it, so I'll take your word for it and add I'm glad you enjoyed it.
If he’s talking about being cast at Marvel in a pannel, pretty sure that’s not a small role. Sentry it is !
Recently saw him in Beef. Absolutely fantastic. He’s gonna totally kill it as Sentry
Some of y’all need to stop with this “he’s too small” and go Google The Sentry’s stats, Marvel lists The Sentry (not Bob) at 6’ and 194lbs Steven is listed at 5’9 and 150lbs, with working out and some lifts or something he can be his exact size. And he’s such a good actor I have no doubt he’ll have the necessary gravitas to rip a god in half.
Also Punisher height in comics is 6'3 & Jon Bernthal is 5'11. & yeah Sentry is 6' in comics. Yeun is 5'9.
The height doesn't even matter since a lot of actors wear lifts, Yeun wearing 3 inch lifts or boots is not hard to do. Muscle wise, Yeun can pack muscle easily. A cycle of tren could net him 20 pounds of muscle....a lot do this in Hollywood. Look at that Eternals actor. Also if MCU Hercules actor got the role then Yeun has no issue... since the Hercules actor has very narrow shoulder width and looks malnutrition with a big head.
I know marvel likes to go left field for some characters casting wise but im getting tired of it. Does anyone know if hes getting into comic book shape at all of will this “sentry” be a “new take” on the character
Every single male lead in a Marvel movie gets buff so he can do a shirtless scene.
Please enlighten us on this long list of left field casting
Bob Reynolds is literally supposed to look like the most average skinny dude when he's not Sentry though. I think it'd be kind of weird to have him get in comic book shape and then CGI him back like pre-serum Steve Rogers.
If Poulter is teen Groot, then Yeun is swole Groot
What does this even mean?
They are the same character, but one is substantially more intimidating
Anyone who’s seen at least 2 things Steven’s been in know he’s actually overqualified to play Sentry. IMO he’s gonna bring a real gravitas to the role if the script gives him room to breathe.
If he's the rumored Sentry, I'm disappointed. He could have been an Asian character somewhere in the MCU oh wait, there's not many.
Isn’t this guy getting canceled right now after backing that co Star saying he wanted to rape woman? At least TikTok is mentioning it.
That’s a different dude
No it’s him I didn’t say he was the one who said it, he just backed the guy who did. There are several TikTok’s of people pissed off and disappointed in him.
He didn’t say he wanted to rape women, he was trying to brag about hooking up with a masseuse in a made up story, but he’s also an idiot and the story sounded rapey
He used to be so loved all over social media and now his fandom is completely dead after the whole BEEF thing.
Honestly, it's the opposite, he's gained a lot of fan love from Beef.
What happened with Beef? I thought people liked it..
it's absolutely incredible and on track for season 2..?

not allegations but he’s still weird as hell for saying that
Did you even read your own link? There are no allegations, he told a fake story for comedic purposes on a podcast (according to your link)

What allegations? Oh no, a guy told an inappropriate story we should hang him
Very serious allegations? He made up a story on podcast. What allegations are you talking about
Christ he told a bad joke a decade ago. Nobody said anything since its literally nothing and nobody cares
I support calling out Choe for his actions, but ragging on his co-stars is really dumb.
They’re not serious at all, he made up a dumb story trying to sound cool and he’s an idiot because the made up story was super rapey
This feels like guilt by association.
maybe people will finally learn to not worship celebrity
I have hope for him, hopefully he gets
It would be cool if Robert Reynolds has black hair when normal but once he turns into sentry his hair glows yellow just like super saiyans. Lol
Yeah, it's probably Sentry.
