Given that "The Avengers" is finally in theaters, you might think Marvel has tapped all of its resources at this point.

What's left?

Last month, we reported that the self-avowed comic book nerd Mustafa was lobbying hard to play Cage in a movie, and had met with the Marvel brass. Now it appears he's gone the next step by creating a short teaser of him in action as the character.

"I've already had a meeting with Marvel," said Mustafa. "I talked to them and I told them that I was a gracious reader of their comics and that I wanted to be Luke Cage. So we'll see where they take it." Get More »
