Taye Diggs Would Like To Play Luke Cage

During last night's episode of Conan, actor Taye Diggs revealed that he too would like to join the superhero universe.

"I would love to. That’s one of the things that I haven't gotten to do yet. Just to be able to do that, you know, when they're flying, and then they land, you know what I'm saying."

O' Brien then asked Diggs if there was any particular superhero he wanted to play.

"Luke Cage. You ever heard of that? I've always liked that. Just you know, growing up a poor black boy, you gravitate to the black superheroes. And that's why I really loved Django Unchained. Growing up, you never got to see the black dude shoot up the white people and ride away. You never got to see that. He’s always the buddy or the dude giving his life away."
