The Avengers casting thread - Page 2

Does this include villains?

Silvermoth · 05-09-2012, 05:10 AM

Sure! Knock yourself out

natey2k4 · 05-09-2012, 05:12 AM

Who could Nathan Fillion come in to play?

Maybe Captain Marvel?

psylockolussus · 05-09-2012, 05:34 AM

I want Nathan Fillion to play Ant-Man

Julio Alejandro · 05-09-2012, 06:38 AM

Nathan Fillion has to be Hank Pym, and I nominate John Rhys-Davies as Thanos. He has the deep, calm delivery that would be perfect, and the build for the motion-capture.

I would love this!

They really can only add two Avengers here, and still have a movie that services everyone AND has a good story, even then, they'd probably have to kill off some characters. In order I think they should be added:

Black Panther - Aldis Hodge (it's hard to argue with this)
Ms. Marvel - Charlize Therone (just to throw a new name in)
Dr. Strange - Patrick Dempsey
Ant-Man (present day or not) - Nathan Fillion
Wasp - Maggie Q
Vision: Clark Gregg

Oh, and for villains:
Ultron: Keith David (Voice) "Mad Chad" (Actor/Guiness Record Book Best 'Robot' movements, Mo-Cap)
Thanos: Ron Perlman

Donnie Darko · 05-09-2012, 12:15 PM

Patrick Wilson as Hank Pym
Amy Acker as Wasp
Brandon Routh as Wonder Man
Alan Tudyk as Vision

dbxkilla · 05-09-2012, 05:42 PM

giant-man slash ant-man should be patrick wilson and wasp should be allison scagliotti with patrick dempsey as doctor strange

MarvelKnight · 05-09-2012, 06:09 PM

Joseph Fiennes for Vision
Lauren Cohan for Janet
The Rock for Luke Cage

As far as thanos, I don't see what's wrong with the guy who played him during the mid-credits scene. He might not be as tall as thanos' is (6'4 compared to 6'7) but put a couple inch lift in his boots and there's thanos, to me.

marcvader · 05-09-2012, 06:21 PM

It would be nice to have an actor with a really great voice and delivery.

I agree, I've never heard the guy from the mid-credits scene talk, so I cannot comment on it. But, I'm sure it would be something that would worked on, no matter who gets the role.

Julio Alejandro · 05-09-2012, 07:21 PM

That's why I suggest John Rhys-Davies.

Donnie Darko · 05-09-2012, 07:36 PM

I didn't even know there was an actor. I figured it was just all cgi.

That could be interesting. Demographically it would be a major hit. Ellen Wong would be an interesting Wasp.

I remember when I was in Japan I only saw two types of adverts for 'Battleship'. The first had one of the only Asian characters in the movie portrayed prominently, even though he was probably only in the movie for a few minutes. The other showed the male protaganist from behind, so you couldn't see his facial features or nationality. I suppose that happens with all movies everywhere. (well, blockbusters at least)

Sure he is.

Rock looks too polynesian for me to be Cage.

Whiskey Tango · 05-10-2012, 10:21 AM

I still like him for Namor better anyway.

As long as they shoot higher than the Old Spice guy.

I don't know that I would necessarily add all of these characters to The Avengers 2 but I'd like for each of them to play a role in the second phase of the MCU.

Dr. Strange - Adrien Brody
Hank Pym - Nathan Fillion
Wasp - Ginnifer Goodwin
Black Panther - Aldis Hodge
Luke Cage - Terry Crews

I'm sorry, I forgot he is half black, you are kidding right?

The last thing I plan on doing is getting into a tizzy over race. I think he would be great as Luke Cage and I'm going to leave it at that. Don't agree if you don't want, I have no problem with that.

Are you suggesting him as actor and voice? or do you expect them to do a voice over a la Silver Surfer?
