Joining a really talented group, which includes Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm, Ineson is going to take his unique talent and extraordinary voice to the role of the planet-eating villain.

His knowledge and skills in this area make him a great choice for the role of the devourer of worlds. Let’s take a look at six such projects done by Ineson that make him a perfect recruit for Galactus in the MCU.
The Witch
Throughout The Witch, Ralph Ineson’s performance in the role of William was quite effective. He played the father of a Puritan family who is isolated in New England. William’s strict religious beliefs and his desire to support his family even in tough circumstances are the main features of his character. Ineson shows the struggle of a person whose faith is both his strength and his weakness. While supernatural events start to break up his family’s stability, Ineson gives William a feeling of desperation and authority and at the same time makes him a sympathetic figure.
William’s life is characterized by his struggle to combine his unshakable faith with the facts of his family’s situation. Ineson’s ability to show this inner conflict, together with his powerful body and voice made the film more intense. His conversations with his family members show his character’s complex personality, as he changes from a strict father to a man who is struggling with his own doubts and fears.
Peaky Blinders
In Peaky Blinders, Ralph Ineson portrays the character Connor Nutley, a man who is connected to the criminal underworld of post-World War I Birmingham. Nutley is a tough guy and acts as a police in the secretive environment of the show. Although his screen time is not a lot, Ineson’s portrayal of Nutley is quite effective. His character added to the dark and gritty atmosphere of the show.
The effects of Nutley’s encounters with the Shelby family are full of suspense and danger under the surface. Ineson’s performance also showed the power relations in the story. His talent for giving the character a feeling of danger and unpredictability made the series more realistic in its representation of crime.
The Creator (2023)
Ralph Ineson was cast to play General Andrews in the movie The Creator. He is one of the future top military officers. The character of Andrews is defined by the need to resolve the controversy that exists between human and the advanced AI entities.
