Rita Ora Set to Rock the MCU: A New Villain in Town
Rita Ora is more than just a pop sensation. She’s stepping into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), possibly as a villain. The British star is married to Taika Waititi, the creative mind behind Thor: Love and Thunder. Ora has tasted cinema success before, playing roles in Fifty Shades of Grey and Pokémon Detective Pikachu. But now, it seems a darker twist awaits her in a Marvel project.
A Mysterious Marvel Move
Word has it from The Sun UK that Ora’s Hollywood journey is about to take a turn. The report suggests she’s gearing up to play a villain in a Marvel Studios film. Rumors sparked during the British Fashion Awards. Ora, clad in an outfit reminiscent of a Marvel baddie, let slip about her new role. "Someone commented on her attire," the article noted, "and she confirmed she’s landed an evil role in Marvel’s newest film." With Ora’s enthusiasm, fans are already buzzing about what this might mean for the MCU’s evolving landscape.
Despite the whispers, Marvel has remained tight-lipped about her casting. Additionally, Taika Waititi hasn’t been announced for another MCU project, leaving fans curious about potential collaborations.
