With Farhan Akhtar already signing up for an unnamed Marvel project and Harish Patel joining the cast of Marvel's Eternals, it sure looks like Hollywood is opening its Superhero universe for actors from Bollywood.

Batman is considered to be the DC universe's most prized possession, with the caped crusader one of the rare breeds of superheroes who does not have actual superpowers.

Having said that, however, if a certain Bollywood actor were to replace him, we think that the Marvel King should only be played by the true king of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan. Talking about Tony Stark's intellect, his quirky one-liners, and his overall charisma, SRK is the one Indian actor who usually ticks all the boxes.

Well, we couldn't find a better candidate than Bollywood's very own John Abraham to play the role of Ghost Rider. The actor, being a biking aficionado, will fit right in place and with his performances in Rocky Handsome and Force, he will surely guarantee performance of a lifetime.

5. Hrithik Roshan as Aquaman

Being a royal Atlantean-human hybrid and the King of Atlantis, Aquaman has a godly physique and is a lot stronger, faster, and tougher than any Atlantian or human.

Well, which actor exactly comes to your mind when you think of Greek God-like features, bulging biceps, and surfer-boy type looks in Bollywood?

Well, it is definitely Hrithik Roshan. The actor looks tailor-made to play the role of the ruler of the ocean, and while his character may have actually died by drowning in Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, it feels like he would look to right some wrongs as Aquaman.

6. Ranveer Singh as Mr. Fantastic

If we were to look for a Bollywood candidate to play the role of Mister Fantastic, it should probably be Ranveer Singh, who is one of THE most versatile actors in the industry right now.

With his tremendous acting talent and oozing charm, we feel he'd dive deep into what really makes Reed Richards the smartest man in the Marvel universe as well as a badass superhero that is Mister Fantastic.

If anyone's seen Priyanka's career graph, she has risen to the absolute top all on her own. This shows great strength of character, something which Natasha Romanoff's Black Widow has in abundance.

To be honest, Piggy Chops would actually look spectacular in the Black Widow costume as well. What do you think?

9. Rohit Saraf as Spider-Man

Actor Rohit Saraf is probably the new kid in the neighborhood that is Bollywood, similar to how Holland's Spider-Man was with the Avengers in the MCU universe.

But having seen a bit of his work and his fan following on social media, we can surely say that Rohit Saraf would fit well in Spider-Man's spandex costume, while surely putting his athleticism and acting talent to work.  

10. Vidyut Jamwal as Punisher

The Marvel anti-hero is probably the most fearsome character in the whole superhero universe due to his ability to inflict some serious damage. The Punisher possesses skills in hand-to-hand combat, guerrilla warfare, and marksmanship while carrying a range of weapons against enemies. This means that he is truly a one-man-army, and who better to fill that role than Vidyut Jamwal.

The supremely talented actor, who is a super fitness enthusiast, is known for his roles in the Commando series, where he literally does everything on his own, making him pretty much the same ilk as The Punisher.

Just try picturing him in a black jacket, with the Skull pictured shirt underneath, standing in the night with his hair all rolled back, yes, we have got ourselves the Indian Punisher.
