A major Euphoria star might be suiting up for the MCU, and it’s not who you think. After recent rumors linked one cast member to Marvel, another fan-favorite from the HBO series has reportedly entered talks for a significant role in the franchise.
Jacob Elordi rumored for an MCU role
Marvel scooper MyTimeToShineHello recently posted on X about an “INSANE Marvel scoop.” The insider claimed that Jacob Elordi is currently in talks for a major Marvel role. The post quickly gained traction among fans already buzzing about Marvel’s casting decisions.
This development follows recent rumors linking Sydney Sweeney to a Marvel project as well. Elordi and Sweeney both starred in HBO’s hit drama series Euphoria together. The show ran from 2019 to 2026 and concluded with its third and final season.
Elordi has quickly become one of Hollywood’s most sought-after leading men in recent years. He earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein. He also received two Golden Globe nominations for Frankenstein and The Narrow Road to the Deep North.
The Australian actor’s career trajectory has shifted dramatically since his early Netflix beginnings. He first gained widespread fame through The Kissing Booth franchise before landing his breakout role in Euphoria. His critically acclaimed performances in Saltburn and Priscilla in 2023 established him as a serious dramatic actor.
Elordi most recently starred as Heathcliff in Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights opposite Margot Robbie. The film grossed $288 million globally and became the first major commercial success of his career. He is next set to appear in Ridley Scott’s science fiction film The Dog Stars. That film is currently scheduled for release on August 28, 2026. A Marvel role would mark another significant milestone for Elordi’s rapidly expanding filmography.
Neither Marvel Studios nor Elordi’s representatives have publicly commented on the reported talks yet.
