During a recent interview on the Howard Stern Show, the "30 Rock" actor revealed he was offered a role in a Marvel movie.

Baldwin explained he passed on the roles because of his wife Hilaria's pregnancy.  

"I wasn't available, they wanted me to work a certain time. And because of my wife's pregnancy, I had to turn down two films this summer that I wanted to do."
