Park Seo Joon’s Prince Yan Gets His Own The Marvels Teaser

Park Seo Joon is set for his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut this November, and fans finally got to see more of his mysterious character. “The Marvels” has dropped an official teaser for Prince Yan and it features a glimpse at the flamboyant culture of the planet Aladna.

Prince Yan Gets His Own ‘The Marvels’ Teaser

The new teaser for “The Marvels” was shared by the official Marvel Studios X account. “Meet the Prince,” the caption reads, referring to Prince Yan. Moreover, the brief teaser features Park Seo Joon wearing several bright looks as the ruler of the planet Aladna. Most notably, Yan is shown wearing his royal garments topped with a Silla-era crown backed by a pair of golden wings.

It’s a decidedly ostentatious look that seems fitting for royalty but netizens pointed out that the outfit was too much, especially for a Marvel character. On the other hand, it is important to point out that Aladna is often described as one of the more outrageous locations in the Marvel comic books so it would make sense that its people would have a flamboyant style to match.

In the comics, Prince Yan initially asks for Carol Danvers’ help so he can get out of an engagement with Lila Cheney. During the wedding, Lila is challenged by another woman who wants to marry Yan. Carol fights in Lila’s place and wins, becoming Yan’s new bride.

For now, it is unclear whether Carol will continue to stay married to Prince Yan in “The Marvels”. However, Park Seo Joon’s character is expected to play a major role in the second “Captain Marvel” movie.

“The Marvels” is directed by Nia DaCosta and stars Brie Larson as Carol Danvers, Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau, and Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan. It will also feature Zawe Ashton, Park Seo-joon, and Samuel L. Jackson. In the upcoming sequel, Danvers, Rambeau, and Kamala team up after they begin swapping places with each other every time they use their powers.

“The Marvels” will hit theaters on November 10, 2023.

YG Entertainment Debunks BLACKPINK Jennie’s Marvel Casting

During the weekend, there were reports claiming that Jennie had been cast as Seol Hee in a Marvel project. The character, who is also known as Luna Snow, has ice-based superpowers and is set to be part of the MCU’s first Asian superhero team.

So is Jennie getting ready for her MCU debut? YG Entertainment has addressed the rumors in a new statement.

“It is not true that Jennie received an offer to star in a Marvel project,” the agency confirmed.

Jennie had just made her acting debut in the HBO series “The Idol”. The BLACKPINK member, who is using the moniker Jennie Ruby Jane, played a dancer Dyanne in the show.

“The Idol”, which stars Lily-Rose Depp and Abel “The Weeknd” Testafaye, premiered at the 76th Cannes Film Festival this May.

Jennie recently caused some concern when she unexpectedly left the stage midway through BLACKPINK’s concert in Melbourne. Jisoo, Rosé, and Lisa then finished the show without her. Prior to the performance, Jennie had been absent during the soundcheck because she wasn’t feeling well.

YG Entertainment has since issued a statement regarding the “Solo” singer’s sudden exit.

“We regret to inform you that during the BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR [BORN PINK] IN MELBOURNE performance on June 11 (today), member Jennie was unable to complete the stage due to her deteriorating condition,” the statement read.

The agency confirmed that Jennie was advised to rest. “We will do its utmost to support Jennie’s speedy recovery,” the statement continued. “We would like to ask for your understanding once again.”

BLACKPINK will continue with the BORN PINK World Tour in Australia and is scheduled to perform in Sydney this week. The group is set for a two-night show in Sydney on June 16 and 17, 2023.
