Evan Peters has expressed his desire to reprise his role as Peter Maximoff, known as Quicksilver, in future installments of the cinematic universe. In a recent interview with IMDb, the actor expressed his enthusiasm for the character, indicating that there is still much to explore in his development. “I would love to come back and play Quicksilver again,” Peters commented. “I think it’s a really fun character and there’s so much more to tell; I’ve always played it as a guest role, so I’m curious to see what it would really be like to delve into that character and his story.”
In a hurry!
Peters made his debut as Quicksilver in 2014 in X-Men: Days of Future Past and continued his involvement in X-Men: Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix, in addition to a cameo in Deadpool2. However, his connection to the character became complicated when he appeared in the Marvel series WandaVision and Agatha, Who If Not?, where he was introduced as Ralph Bohner, causing confusion among fans about the character’s continuity in the MCU.
The actor also highlighted the impressive visual effects used to represent Quicksilver’s superhuman abilities in the X-Men movies. “The visual effects and what they were able to do with that was amazing. I still can’t believe I was behind the scenes on that”, Peters added, emphasizing how exciting his experience was.
Currently, Peters stars in Tron: Ares as the antagonist Julian Dillinger, a tech CEO who develops an artificial intelligence super-soldier named Ares. The film, which recently premiered in theaters, features a cast that includes Greta Lee, Jared Leto, and Gillian Anderson.
