Black Widow or Madame Masque???

[QWoods]

With the recent casting call out for a female lead in iron man 2 i have 2 ask which one do u want to see?

[Ironfan72]

Personally, I would love to see Madam Masque, keeping within the Iron Man universe of characters.

[November Rain]

screw that, get black cat in

[QWoods]

Yes Black Cat rocks but not for this movie hopefully she will appear in a future spidey film

[SurfDUI]

Madame Masque and involve her crazy daddy would be ideal.

[FaT_tONle]

Madame Masque no doubt... Black Widow is better off as a cameo.

[The IronMan]

Madam Masque

[Philly Phanboy]

Likely Madame Masque.

[Chris B]

I'd be fine with either one. But with Favreau hinting at Russian theme, I'd bet my money on the Black Widow. Plus they could foreshadow her eventual defection and joining the Avengers.

[SurfDUI]

Now I a concern is the next Iron Man being nothing more than a set up for a damned Live action Avengers. You could drag out the Layton/Michelline Madame Masque plotline over 2 movies alone.
I hope it stands alone-whomever they use as well as the first.

That's a worry for me as well, but Favreau and everyone involved have made strong comments about how they want to keep this in Iron Mans world. using Iron Man characters and not set up Avengers, I realize that Marvel wants to us Iron Man to build up Avengers.
I hope they stay true to Iron Man and not clutter the film with Avengers camos, I would feel the same about Batman or Superman setting up a JLA film, its not nessary, they sell themselves.

Madame Masque. I like both characters though. But MM is bar-none, my favorite super-villainess. I do hope that any set/cameo's are done in an organic and natural way rather than done abruptly in a overly obvious set up attempt. In Favreau I trust.

[chiefchirpa]

Madame Masque. Save some hero screen time for Rhodey.

[kedrell]

Well if Latino Review is right, then it's probably BW.

[Chris B]

On a second note, I think we could be getting both, depending on how you interpret the description of Female Lead in the casting call.

[kedrell]

Well I'd say the odds of getting both are some what slim.

[Chris B]

Though as others have pointed out the casting call didn't specifically call for an Eastern European/Russian actress for the Female Lead. When it probably would've had it been for Black Widow.

But we'll see soon enough.

[SurfDUI]

IM's gallery is comparativley pretty small...and since so much of the ink and paper material is a large refrence to his background. I'm thinkin in some capacity MM will appear.....I don't care if she's in the shadow's JUST pleezze GET THE MASK RIGHT JON.

[TheVileOne]

I would prefer Madame Masque since she's more of an Iron Man character while Black Widow has kind of carved out her own niche. Plus I just like the Madame Masque character. The whole vibe of this woman that used to have a thing with Tony, still has a kind of thing for him, but she's now an evil villainess and fights him. It's pretty sexy :D .

[Spider-ManHero12]

Black Widow

[TwilightPro101]

Went for the Madame.

[kedrell]

Wow, an evenly divided poll. I never see that on SHH.

[marcvader]

We definately need some female villains in the Marvel movieverse.

[kedrell]

^I'd say both Marvel and DC. The last decent female villain we had that wasn't portrayed in a somewhat simpathetic light was Ursa in Superman 2. Mystique was part of the evil mutants(who were simpathetic since they were fighting against their own oppression) and Catwoman was more of an anti-hero.

[Chewy]

It's not even anymore :D

[kedrell]

Still close though, which is rare on SHH. Most polls are overwhelmingly lop-sided.

No, we need a female villain that goes solo.

[Ironfan72]

Madam Masque would fit the going solo mold, whether or not she appears in any Iron Man film is not looking good, but she would be very cool to see.

[LightningFlash]

I have no clue who that is, lol, but I'm just saying we need a female villain that goes solo just because I'm tired of team-ups; they never work out unless they both are from the same origin(Superman II..but three villains don't count maybe?). Spider-Man 3 did it tragically, and I remember with Batman & Robin...the Poison Ivy/Mr. Freeze team-up was very campy.

The only watchable team-up I can think of for a comic-book adaptation would be Two-Face and Riddler, just because I enjoyed both versions even though the movie itself was sub-par from the first two.

[Adrian89]

omg, I'll tell you what: how about NONE?!? ;)

Iron Man and War Machine are ENOUGH! I dont want a mess in there.

[LightningFlash]

Black Widow is already in the mix.

Plus you need a VILLAIN.

[Ironfan72]

The problem is Marvel has two things going on here, first they are making a Iron Man movie with Iron Man universe characters, but the biggest thing that makes it messy at number 2, is they are using the success of Iron Man to launch Avengers, so they seem so far trying to add characters that set up Avengers and in a way Iron Man's story gets set aside.
Now maybe I'm wrong and we see little Avengers set up and the focus stay's on Iron Man, have to wait and see.

[LightningFlash]

I say don't worry about it until the final product shows up. You never know, maybe the "Fav" knows what he is doing. Hawkeye and Black Widow obviously will be apart of S.H.I.E.L.D. and that's not really any "new stories", just the main Avengers one.

[Doctor Doom]

Black Widow for sure.
