Marvel is set to launch a Carol Danvers Captain Marvel movie on November 2, 2018 and may actually introduce the character some time earlier.

Fans are also drawing up their list of favorite actresses to play Ms. Marvel, and by “drawing” we mean literally.

A fan created an image of Katheryn Winnick as Ms. Marvel, which went viral.

In the video above, Winnick says she was impressed by the image and also offers she would love to play the character.

“Are you kidding me? I would love to. I would love to do that,” Winnick said. “I’m such a big fan of those movies and comic books. It would be a dream come true. And I love kicking butt. Lagertha, my character [in Vikings], kicks butt in the Dark Ages. It would be interesting to just go in the future and do a fantasy one as well.”

Winnick is also aware another fan-favorite choice to play Ms. Marvel is Katee Sackhoff.

“Hey, we can just fight it out,” Winnick says, who happens to hold black-belts in Tae Kwon Do and Karate. “We can see who the best person with the — [laughs]. I just have a strong side kick.

“All kidding [aside],” Winnick continues, “I haven’t heard much about it, but I know it would be something I would be interested in. For sure. Who wouldn’t be?”
