New Rumor Claims Sabrina Carpenter Has Met With Marvel Studios to Discuss Taking On the Role of Dazzler in the MCU
Sabrina Carpenter has starred in many TV series and a handful of movies over the years, but she has made the biggest mark on the music industry with her most recent album releases.
She is anxious to get back to acting though, and Disney did have their sights set on her to play Rapunzel in a live-action Tangled, but the plan for that remake was placed on the back burner, if not scrapped altogether when the most recent Disney princess remake, Snow White, underperformed in a huge way for the studio.
But Carpenter may just get her chance at a major role, that is, if the rumors are true.
According to industry scooper MTTSH, Carpenter has met with Marvel Studios and is being eyed for the role of Dazzler. This would presumably be for the long-awaited X-Men reboot, but we have heard that a number of other X-related projects are also in various stages of development.
The Marvel character Alison Blair/Dazzler is a mutant who can manipulate sound into light. The louder the source, the more powerful the output. This seems like a natural fit for the pop star, just as fans have speculated over the years that Taylor Swift would be perfect for the part as well.
This character is obviously up the alley of the biggest pop star/actresses we know, so it would make sense if this rumor turns out to be true.
As with all the recent Marvel rumors, we will just have to wait and see. Who would be your ideal casting choice for the MCU’s Dazzler?
