While most comic book lovers will recognize Karl Urban as the lead in Amazon’s black comedy series “The Boys”, which is based on the comic book series by Garth Ennis, Darick Robertson, the New Zealand actor has also appeared in several comic-book adaptations.

Urban is not new to the spotlight of the superhero genre. This is why many fans have called for him to be the next Marvel’s iconic hero, Wolverine.

Fans of “The Boys” will be able to see how Billy Butcher, the revenge-driven antihero, could be transformed into the notoriously violent Canadian mutant.

It’s also easy to see that Urban already looks the part. Reddit fans have been vocal in supporting Urban’s role in Marvel Cinematic Universe (if and when they decide to introduce the X-Men).

The Guardian recently interviewed Urban. Stuart Heritage, an interviewer, informed him about his X-Men fan-casting. Heritage described how Reddit has many photoshopped images of Urban as Wolverine.

Urban’s response to the role will be disappointing to some, but he makes a strong argument why he shouldn’t be considered, even if it was a breeze.
