Marvel fancast. I kept a lot of the actors that I thought were perfectly cast (Chris Evans, Michael B. Jordan, etc.). I’m familiar with most of these characters, but there are a few of them that I’m not, so if my casting erased some part of their identity as a character (race/religion/ethnicity/etc.) or was otherwise inappropriate (because of the actors age, etc.) it was unintentional and kindly let me know so I can correct it! Thanks!
