From OGs like Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans to recent additions like Chadwick Boseman and Brie Larson, these guys have fronted the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) since its humble beginnings in 2008. It's almost unthinkable to consider any other actor filling their superhero-sized shoes.
But... what if the MCU films are shot in Malaysia instead?
In a series of tweets, Twitter user @MeorAiman95 tries to reimagine what the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy would look like if they were played by local actors:
