Isaiah Mustafa, once again, showed his desire to be Luke Cage AKA Power Man in a short video response to an Internet post comparing Cage to Mustafa's Old Spice Man with Iron Fist in the place of "your man."



The entire video is a love letter to the Marvel Comics community that to anyone else would sound like insane ramblings. He capped the whole thing off saying, "I agree. I would be great for that role. And luckily, I'm for hire," not only explicitly putting out his desire for the role, but also weaving in one last "Heroes for Hire" reference.

Dude should seriously play Luke Cage

Damm, this guy's 6'3 1/2"!
He is a very good candidate
for Cage and he's a relative
unknown and that seems to be
what Marvel is shooting for.

I still like Henry Simmons
but this guy is a contender!

Crews is cool but just too
damm old and homely! Geez!!!

Michael Jai White should be
Bishop in the X-men!

Ohk, this guy is AWEsome! hahaha. He would be a great Luke Cage. I love it when actors do stuff like this to get noticed by movie studios. It shows that they are comitted & would be great at that particular role! :)

@ UserName786: I preffer Crews but wouldn't be upset with Old Spice guy. And yes you are the only one who thinks he looks like White.

But seriously he's a good choice for Luke Cage!

I confirm everything DDD just said! I also thought Simmons was the best choice, but this guy is winning me over. He certainly has charisma, and that is as important as the muscles. Terry Crews would be my 3rd choice at this point.

p.s. Michael Jai White as Bishop is genius casting ;-)

OMG LOL HAHAAAAHAHEEEE This is pathetic and sad.

THis is like a Bum begging for money.

Please people, even he look awesome for the role is better that never happen. Learn from Jonah Hex, Captain Fury movie. This hero could have a short cameo in the Avenges Movie, but a solo movie??? NO no Noooo, even a tv series sucks!!! The sad part is that this is pathetic pathetic. Good Luck

bum

@ EL BORICUA CULO - I though about what you wrote and after thinking about it for 5 whole seconds, I arrived at this conclusion:

Since Marvel doesn't like to fork out the cash, this guy might get it. I'm still for Crews, though.

@ EBQ - wow ... what a come back. How much lamer and unoriginal can you get? Never mind ... I'm not really interested. Yawn ...

@ Mass - lol, that is a very good point. Though I doubt Crew's salary can be really up there. I believe this would be his first movie/tv show as the lead.

@McLovin - True.

As I mentioned on the last article on this topic, if somebody from an old spice commercial is going to be Luke Cage, after Crews I might have to vote for Bruce Campbell.
