The Avengers casting thread

Silvermoth · 05-05-2012, 07:58 PM

Having a changing roster is one of the hallmark of The Avengers. So, knowing what you know now, who would you like to see join and who should play them?

I know it's a bit crazy but I would love to see Ms Marvel played by Kate Winslet. Why not get the best I think? She would be great alongside RDJ's Iron Man.

I don't want to overwhelm the roster though so I would probably keep it to adding just one character personally.

Even though I'm dying to see Wanda Maximoff join the Avengers. Claire Foy (Little Dorrit, Upstairs Downstairs) might be cool for that.

Hank & Jan:

Jason Bateman as Hank

Allison Scagliotti (Warehouse 13) as Jan:

drastic_quench · 05-05-2012, 09:02 PM

Chiwetel Ejiofor -- Black Panther
Jon Hamm -- Doctor Strange

Luke Cage and Iron Fist should have a buddy movie first.

Idris Elba -- Luke Cage
I think Iron Fist has already been cast.

Too bad Colbie Smulders is already Maria Hill. She could be a good Jennifer Walters.

Kate Micucci as Wasp

jonathancrane · 05-05-2012, 10:53 PM

They are all nice selections! I would love to see Ms. Winslet in a Marvel film.

No!
I don't like Wasp in EMH and I certainly don't want HER playing a founding Avenger.
NO!

Her eyes ARE kinda buggy though...

Poeman · 05-06-2012, 10:10 PM

Hank Pym

Hawkingbird · 05-07-2012, 01:57 AM

MessiahDecoy123 · 05-07-2012, 02:12 AM

Black Panther
Ms Marvel
Black Panther
Quicksilver

Chewy · 05-07-2012, 04:59 AM

Aldis Hodge as Black Panther
Alice Eve as Ms Marvel

Silvermoth · 05-07-2012, 06:10 AM

I want to change my choice for the Scarlet Witch and add a Quicksilver choice.

Wanda - Gemma Arterton

Pietro - Tom Riley

Speaking of Wanda, I'm really suprised more people didn't vote for her. Is it because they wish she was saved for a sequel? Or that they haven't read the era in which she was such an important Avenger? Oh well

Could be that some people still cling to the myth that "Fox has got Wanda & Pietro," a myth that Kevin Feige has firmly busted.

smashmode · 05-07-2012, 10:29 AM

Need more support for Quicksilver and Scarlett Witch!

Carnage27 · 05-07-2012, 12:04 PM

Voted for none. Keep the roster the same and continue the character development.

I'd rather have Scarlet Witch on the team than QS. I like him more as a villain.

As for Ms. Marvel, I've been for Yvonne Strahovski since day one. Morena Baccarin for Janet.

Eddie Dean · 05-07-2012, 01:48 PM

Joel McHale as Hank Pym
Alison Brie as Wasp

marcvader · 05-07-2012, 03:29 PM

Patrick Wilson for Hank Pym

psylockolussus · 05-07-2012, 09:27 PM

I want to see Eliza Dushku as Ms. Marvel!

Gamingboy · 05-08-2012, 05:36 PM

Have we considered, given the fact that Ultimate Universe seems to dictate a lot as far as appearance goes, that the Wasp might be Asian? Would give some more diversity to the team...

Whiskey Tango · 05-08-2012, 06:18 PM

Yvonne Strahovski - Carol Danvers aka Ms. Marvel

If they go with Wasp then I think Renée Felice Smith from NCIS: Los angeles would be a good fit
