The Avengers Cast The Avengers

[Frico]

Here goes.

Jason Lewis/Captain America

Leonardo Dicaprio/Iron Man

Tyrese Gibson/Luke Cage

Peter Parker/Spider-Man

Jessica Drew/Spider-Woman

What do you guys think? I'm going to post more later, so go easy.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Not bad. I think Tyrese is surprisingly entertaining on film.

I would definately say no to Dicaprio as Iron Man.

 

[adamcz]

I think you should stick to characters that Marvel owns the rights to.

 

[The Question]

Here goes.

Jason Lewis/Captain America

Leonardo Dicaprio/Iron Man

Tyrese Gibson/Luke Cage

Peter Parker/Spider-Man

Jessica Drew/Spider-Woman

Not exactly who I'd cats, but cool. And, who's the woman you cast for Spider-Woman?

 

[Frico]

Her name's Rhona Mitra, she's pretty fine aint she?

Who would some of you cast for the Marvel verse? Post 'em here, I'd like to see them.

 

[The Question]

Captain America: Mark Valley

Iron Man: Tom Cruise

Thor: Viggo Mortensen

Giant Man: Mathew McCaughnehey

Wasp: Amy Acker

Hawkeye: James Marsters

Black Widow: Uma Thurman

 

[GNR]

DiCaprio for Stark?Hell no.

Jason Statham for Hawkeye.

 

[The Question]

Can Statham actually act?

 

[GNR]

He played his role well in the Transporter flicks and he was pretty good in Snatch and Italin Job.

 

[The Question]

I'd rather have Marsters. He's a damned good actor, and I'd bet that he's better than Statham.

 

[marcvader]

I don't know who I would cast, but I definately wouldn't make my Avengers line up out of members that have or can carry their own movies. Thus no Hulk, Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, or Black Panther. People(non fans) would be confused with the inevitable different creative takes and continuity problems created by all the different director's of these established movie characters.
My team for an Avengers movie would be:

Giant Man
Wasp
Scarlet Witch
Quicksilver
Vision
Hawkeye

 

[cerealkiller182]

He has been named for Cap a lot but i think Mark Valley would be a better hawkeye.

 

[KingOfDreams]

My Avengers cast would not be The New Avengers. That being said, this is who I would choose...

Black Panther - Djimon Hinsou
Captain America - Jason Lewis
Iron Man - Johnny Depp or Oded Fehr
Thor - Viggo Mortensen or Karl Urban
Quicksilver - Heath Ledger
Scarlet Witch - Milla Jovovitch
Hawkeye - James Marsters
Vision - ?
Wasp - Natalie Portman
Giant Man - ?

Good Black Panther

For Thor I would tend to go more Karl Urban just because I like Viggo for Aquaman or maybe Green Arrow.

I also think James Marsters might be a better Quicksilver than Hawkeye.

 

[KingOfDreams]

I also think James Marsters might be a better Quicksilver than Hawkeye.

Now that I think about it, you're probably right.

^^^Slim build and slick hair cut. I would definately say so.

Iron Man seems to be the hardest to cast, everyone seems to have a completly different opinion on who should play him.

Im pretty sure the list is:
Tom Cruise
Billy Zane
Jude Law
JOhnny Depp
Oded Fehr
Leonardo Dicaprio
and then some random actor a poster thinks is way underrated(not bashing, I've got my own)

Maybe this makes him the easiest to please since theres so many choices. I think Billy Zane would be best, personally.

 

[The Question]

For Quicksilver, I'd go with Paul Bettany:

Not sure 'bout Scarlet Witch.

 

[JackBauer]

y'know, I know Lewis is a dead on choice for Cap as far as the looks go (though I'd prefer him for Thor), but I've recently seen a movie with him... it's this horrible Z movie and he is, like everyone else, awful in it. I don't trust his acting "skills" to give him the part of Cap.

how does Oded Fehr fit the part?

 

[Donnie Darko]

Captain America: Mark Valley

Iron Man: Tom Cruise

Thor: Viggo Mortensen

Giant Man: Mathew McCaughnehey

Wasp: Amy Acker

Hawkeye: James Marsters

Black Widow: Uma Thurman

this would be a damn good cast.

 

[cerealkiller182]

how does Oded Fehr fit the part?

I dont think he does but he has certainly been brought among the board. My point was that he Iron Man is the one that not many people can agree on.

 

[hippie_hunter]

I would go along with the Question's cast, his is the best. For the roster I would have:

Captain America:
Iron Man
the Hulk:
Giant-Man (Ant-Man becomes Giant-Man in the Avengers)
Wasp (introduced in Ant-Man)
Hawkeye
the Falcon (introduced in a Captain America sequel if the first movie is set in World War II or in the first Captain America movie if they go right away with the man out of time theme)
Black Widow (obtain the rights from Lion's Gate)
Spider-Man (negotiate with Sony to put Spider-Man in the movie)

Cameos: Daredevil, Nick Fury, Black Panther, Sub-Mariner
Mentions: the Fantastic Four, the X-Men

 

[Flame on!]

Yes, but can he act?

 

[Spider - Man]

Thor: Viggo Mortensen

Make me understand why you and so many others want Viggo for Thor. Thor is huge and buff. Yeah, Viggo has the acting chops but he'd need to pack on A LOT of muscle to play Thor. I keep seeing his name overe and over for Thor and I just don't get it!

Mentions: the Fantastic Four, the X-Men

Personally, I'd have The Avengers act as a sequel to Thor, Captain America, Nick Fury, Iron Man, and The Hulk all at the same time. And, I'd base the plot on The Ultimates, simply because it lends itself to a screen adaptation so very well.

Well, not many people with a huge build are very good actors. And Mortensen is pretty ripped. He's hardly scrawny.
