Zawe Ashton is joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe!

The 36-year-old British actress is best known for her work in the Netflix movie Velvet Buzzsaw and on Broadway in the play Betrayal.

Zawe will reportedly play the villain in the upcoming movie Captain Marvel 2, according to Deadline.

“While the exact character is unknown sources do say Ashton will be the main villain,” Deadline reported, adding that another villain could always be added into the mix.

Brie Larson is returning as Carol Danvers for the upcoming movie and she is being joined in the movie by WandaVision star Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau and Ms. Marvel star Iman Vellani as the young superhero.

Captain Marvel grosses over $1.1 billion worldwide back in 2019 and the sequel is expected to hit theaters on November 11, 2022.

The Handmaid’s Tale season four is coming in 2021 and a new cast member was just revealed!

Zawe Ashton, best known for her work in the Netflix projects Velvet Buzzsaw and Wanderlust and her work in Broadway’s Betrayal, is joining the cast for season four.

Series creator Bruce Miller told THR that Zawe “is going to play Moira’s girlfriend and an aid worker in Toronto.”

Bruce also talked about Mckenna Grace‘s role in the upcoming season. He said she “plays a young ‘wife,’ in the Gilead tradition. She’s so spectacular in the show. I’ve just been watching the first few episodes because I’m finally doing some editing, and she’s just wonderful. Watching her and [Elisabeth Moss] together, it’s great. June comes in contact with a lot of different people in the season, a lot more than usual, I would say.”

Also, Bruce said that Reed Birney is joining the show as “someone [from the world of] Gilead, who’s unexpectedly not Reed Birney-ish, but it’s been great to be able to build, and over episodes to build characters.”
