If you’re watching one of the best shows on television, you’ll be familiar with Peter Dinklage and his awesome portrayal of the dwarf Tyrion Lannister on HBO’s Game of Thrones. Dinklage’s standout performance has earned him an Emmy nomination for Best Supporting Actor, which is amongst the thirteen nominations the show has racked up this year.

So what if Dinklage were to say, play the Marvel villain Modok? According to the LA Times, that’s what Captain America: The First Avenger co-writer Christopher Markus would love to have happen in the Captain America sequel. Markus talks about facing Captain America off with Modok on the big screen as he does in the comics and his desire to cast Peter Dinklage:

“I love MODOK and I think you could make a terrifying movie with MODOK but nobody seems to be on my side at the momentum.

I will win you over to Peter Dinklage as MODOK. If he came around the corner and you saw him floating there you would be terrified. It would be amazing.”

Modok was an average technician, named George Tarleton who worked at Advanced Idea Mechanics, an organization of scientists aiming for world domination through the power of science and technology, until he was bio-engineered into a “living computer,” originally codenamed MODOC, Mobile Organism Designed Only For Computing.  The transformation left him with a disproportionately large head with incredible intelligence, psionic powers, and mental derangement. He turned against his creators, claimed leadership of AIM and renamed himself MODOK, Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing.

Modok’s quest for power frequently pits him against Captain America and other super-powered adversaries. Markus believes that the special effects and makeup team on First Avenger can pull Modok off, seeing how successfully they pulled off the Red Skull’s look:

“In [First Avenger] movie, the great thing is [the visual effects and makeup team] really pulled off the Red Skull. It doesn’t look like a mask. it looks like it’s fully integrated into his flesh. And I want to see what they can do with MODOK.”
