Shah Rukh Khan has no dearth of fans all over the world. Every actor and director wants to work with the King Khan. 'The Marvels' director Nia DaCosta also expressed her desire to collaborate with SRK. In an interview, she revealed it and called the superstar a 'legend'. 

Nia DaCosta told News18 Showsha, ''Shah Rukh Khan is kind of a legend, isn’t he? It’s kind of a no-brainer in that sense.”

When asked if she had thought about bringing a Bollywood star on board, similar to Farhan Akhtar joining the series 'Ms. Marvel', Nia DaCosta said, “I never thought about that. I think we were just keeping everything really organic so we never wanted to do any kind of stunt casting''. She added, ''But there is always time, there’s always time''.

'The Marvels' is releasing in theatres in India on November 10. It reunites three female superheroes- Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel (played by Brie Larson), Kamala Khan as Ms. Marvel (played by Iman Vellani), and Captain Monica Rambeau (played by Teyonah Parris). 

Coming back to Shah Rukh Khan, this year has been a great one for the actor. He started with 'Pathaan' followed by 'Jawan'. Both were blockbusters and broke several records. Now, he is gearing up for the release of 'Dunki', directed by Rajkumar Hirani. 

Recently, the first look titled Dunki Drop 1 was unveiled that gave us a sneak peek into the heartwarming tale of friendship. It also stars Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, and Boman Irani among others. The film is releasing on December 22.
