Brandon Perea Showed Off His Superhero Skills in a Bid to Impress Marvel Bosses

For pretty much any actor, landing a gig in a Marvel movie is a sign that you have officially made it. Brandon Perea is no different, and he is getting creative when it comes to grabbing the attention of the Marvel Studios casting team: he just shared a compilation video to social media which highlights his lean, muscular physique—a prerequisite of any superhero actor by now.

Not to mention Perea's array of stunt-friendly skills that he pulls off with an almost effortless-looking athleticism. First, he shows off a series of gymnastics moves, including tumbling and landings which look like something straight out of a Spider-Man movie. He also offered a look at his speed and footwork in a series of boxing drills, performed some tricks on a mountain bike, and then he did a backflip in rollerblades.

"Tell Marvel I’m comin!!!" he wrote in the caption.

At present, he can be seen in Nope, director Jordan Peele's follow-up to Get Out and Us. When asked in a recent interview which project he'd like to be involved in next, he answered: the MCU. "I need to be there," he told Remezcla. "I hope my performance in Nope proves that I can play a Marvel superhero. That’s what I want in my career – 100 percent."

Specifically, Perea wants to play the character Sam Alexander, aka Nova, a fighter in the galactic Nova Force team which featured in the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
