Iron Man 2 Emily Blunt..."rumored" to be in Iron Man 2

[Chris Wallace]

I'd rather see Scarlett as Black Cat.

Ugh.
How about Blunt as Natasha & Scarlett as the other Widow?t:

 

[Lobo]

Ah, her name was Yelena Belova

 

[Chris Wallace]

Right. Drew a blank for a sec.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

I hope that Scarlett news isn't true because she is more miss than hit IMHO. Then again Favs did actually have me like Paltrow in a movie.

 

[Chris Wallace]

I can't think of anything I have truly seriously liked w/Scarlett in it.

not even in Se7en ?

Haha. The Tony Stark/Pepper Potts dynamic is the best superhero/love interest portrayal that I've ever seen in a comic book film.

What about The Prestige?

 

[Hypestyle]

...anything else scarlett can do? madame masque? heh... as long as her outfit is revealing...

 

[Matt.S99]

No to Scarlett. Love her but I cant see her as BW. Black Cat on the other hand... Or if she wants to be in IM, Carol Danvers would suit her perfectly.
Im rin the Dushku camp right now if Blunt cant do it.

 

[Matt.S99]

Well, I think Scarlett is a terrific actress who can definitely pull off the femme fatale angle - don´t judge her for The Spirit, that movie was a train wreck in all aspects, no actors could have saved something so ill-conceived all around . Maybe she´s a little too petit for those action roles, though.

Eliza Dushku is hot, but I never saw what´s the big deal on her acting. Word out there from early reviews is she turned out to be the wrong choice for the Dollhouse main role, which DEMANDS a terrific, chameleonic actress.

Bull. Whedon made the role speciafically for her. He wants to showcase her talent.

My order of preference would be:

1. Blunt
2. Dushku
3. Johansson

Fixed

If Dushku is hired for such a major part the credibility of this film will drop, though only slightly. She's a middling tv actress.

TV isn't viewed as a lower calling anymore these days. You see how many A-listers are doing tv shows.

 

[hatebox]

Well, ok then - she's a mediocre actress period.

 

[WillardNation]

Sounds interesting, Marvel at least is trying to bring in hot talent, I've personally not seen much with Scarlett in it, but people I've spoken with say she's very talented.
This role of Blackwidow has had some big names thrown around, Emily Blunt, Eliza Dusku and now Scarlett , I beleive in Favreau and his vision.

True that. After thinking about it, I don't care who gets cast. I know Favreau's still gonna make an awesome movie.

If Scar Jo is casted then they should go with the second BW... the one a previous poster brought up... Yelena Belova... sort of updated post-Soviet version. She'd fit better lookwise. No sense tweaking with every characters origin in order to update them to the modern day. Now that Crimson Dynamo has been ruled out by RDJ plus the fact that the Russian/Soviet angle has gotten quite old.

 

[Majik1387]

I can see Scarlett as the second Black Widow, I just favor the first BW.

 

[Matt.S99]

Yeah, I can sewe her as the second BW as well, but if they went with the second one, well, that would be stupid.

BTW, does anyone has those hi res pics of the tomb raider models in the PVC catsuits?

 

[batdude]

Oh brother. Yes, Scarlett does look like the second Widow, but I'm going to assume this is the original version.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

not even in Se7en ?

I haven't watched Seven in forever. I remember her not being bad in it.

What about The Prestige?

I thought that she was terrible in The Prestige but I absolutely loved everything else in The Prestige.

 

[Lobo]

For anyone not familiar with Yelena Belova aka Black Widow II biography http://www.marveldirectory.com/pictures/individuals/b_1d/blackwidowii.jpg

 

[FaT_tONle]

Frankly I don't even know why they are intoducing Widow and possibly Hawkeye in IM2 in the first place. I'd rather see them introduced in IM3 leading into their roles in an Avengers sequel. Assuming both characters are in Avengers along with Cap, Hulk, IM, Thor, maybe Nick Fury. Makes me wonder if Hank and Janet Pym will even be in the Avengers film. I just think its way too crowded looking at how it is shaping up.

 

[Chris Wallace]

Haha. The Tony Stark/Pepper Potts dynamic is the best superhero/love interest portrayal that I've ever seen in a comic book film.

I wouldn't go that far.

What about The Prestige?

Haven't seen it.

Will Smith was/is a TV actor. Jessica Alba is/was a TV actress. Johnny Depp is/was a TV actor. Being a TV actor is not 'below' anything or anyone else.
