The Old Spice guy wants to be Luke Cage

Isaiah Mustafa has a lot of things going for him. First, he’s got the most badass name ever, second he’s in the only commercial on TV worth watching and last, he looks like that.

So it’s not unheard of that an insta-celebrity such as he could make the jump from Old Spice into actual acting in something relatively large. Stranger things have happened.

Talking to G4, Isaiah reveals his dream role, one of those Marvel superheroes yet to be cast.

“Well I’m starting on a movie Monday that’s called Free Enterprise 2. It’s a sequel to the cult classic Free Enterprise about comic books. I’m a comic junkie myself.”

“I will say this…please, get this thing going. I want to be Luke Cage, OK ! I want to be Luke Cage! You have no idea, I mean really, yes. I made a dream board of it and put my face on the comic. I said I want to be Luke Cage one day.”

I mean, he’s got the build for it, but it’s hard to pick him over someone super awesome like Michael Jai White. Can he fight? I want to see an audition tape Mufasa.

For a refresher of who this guy is, check out his claim to fame below, and his G4 interview after that.
