I don\u2019t want to undo somebody because they hired someone else to do it. But they asked me to play a villain in one of these Marvel Comics movies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wasn\u2019t available, they wanted me to work a certain time. And because of my wife\u2019s pregnancy, I had to turn down two films this summer that I wanted to do.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That was Alec Baldwin on the Howard Stern show last week,dropping a bombshell on comic book fans everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>For those of you who only know Baldwin from his work in <em>30 Rock<\/em>, his frequent quest hostings of <em>Saturday Night Live<\/em> and his Capital One commercials, you might be saying, &#8220;thank God.&#8221; But before his recent turn to roles comedic, Baldwin was an accomplished actor in all genres, as evidenced by his work in\u00a0<strong>The Hunt for Red October, Glengarry Glen Ross, Ghosts of Mississippi<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>The Coo<\/strong><strong>ler<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t help but wonder what role Baldwin turned down. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/heat-vision\/alec-baldwin-turned-down-marvel-595000\">The Hollywood Reporter<\/a> has already done the legwork for us:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Presuming that the mention of his wife&#8217;s pregnancy refers to the time period in which the movie was shot, which isn&#8217;t exactly clear, that leaves only a handful of possibilities &#8212; She is currently six months pregnant, which means that <em>Guardians of the Galaxy<\/em>, <em>Captain America: The Winter Soldier<\/em> and potentially <em>Thor: The Dark World<\/em> are it as far as official Marvel Studios productions, with <em>The Amazing Spider-Man 2<\/em> and <em>X-Men: Days of Future Past<\/em> the other projects based upon a Marvel property in production during that time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Personally, I&#8217;m leaning to either <strong>Guardians of the Galaxy <\/strong>or the non-Marvel Studios ones. They are the films that would still be in production when Baldwin&#8217;s wife is set to deliver the baby.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, Marvel keeps Baldwin&#8217;s number on file. I know of a lot of characters that I would love to see him take a run at.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">But remains mum on what role it could have been.<\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2013\/07\/29\/alec-baldwin-marvel-movie\/\" title=\"Alec Baldwin Claims To Have Been Offered A Marvel Movie\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[619,564],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-29754","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-news","7":"tag-alec-baldwin","8":"tag-marvel-studios"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29754","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29754"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29754\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29754"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29754"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29754"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=29754"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
