The Winter Soldier Love Interest for Captain America II - Part 1

If Emily VanCamp and Hayley Atwell look related, then couldn't Scarlett Johansson and Hayley Atwell look related? Or really any of the other Marvel females? Natalie Portman, Kat Dennings, etc.
I don't understand your reasoning... but if you see a resemblance between those actresses sure... I see none.

Look at Kat, for example:

She looks more like Hayley Atwell than Emily does, especially in the boob deparment.

Kat Dennings in my opinion doesn't share any common facial features with Hayley Atwell. They do both have dark brown hair and big boobs.

A subjective truth from your point of view. That's hardly fact.
Yeah, that's what I meant. Of course it's not a fact. I'm the only one who knows what my family and I look like and in my opinion, we look less alike then they do.

It's possible you could be seeing it because that's what you want to see.
Actually it's not possible at all. My choices for Sharon Carter were Imogen Poots and Teresa Palmer, they don't really look like Hayley and I didn't care. But when Emily VanCamp was cast I instantly noticed a resemblance. There was no "want" involved with VanCamp because I didn't want her in the first place, not that I don't like the choice now. The people I actually wanted for Sharon look less like Hayley then the person who was chosen.

I disagree. I think it could be a subconscious thing. You still seem pleasantly surprised with the choice and your brain could just be doing the rest.

Also, in regards of your earlier post about "there's no thinking". I was meaning that I would like to hear you say what features they have that do show some resemblance. I've only heard her jawline from one other person who is sceptical about any resemblance (something I don't quite see myself either). To me her eyes, her cheeks, her nose and lips all seem quite different from Atwell.

You disagree? How can you disagree with my visual perception? I think I made it clear that my choice was this lovely lady:

Someone who actually looked like Hayley wasn't even on my radar. My perception that Emily resembles Hayley has nothing to do with what I wanted for the role.

Okay, if you want me to unnecessarily go in depth I will: Like I have already said they have similar jawlines and with that similar head shapes in general. They have the same eye color and their eyes are pretty much the same length apart. Their eyebrows both have a similar slant. Their hairlines are both pretty much the same length from their eyebrows. They have similar lips, especially when they smile widely. Their top lips are both pretty much the same distance from their nose. Their bottom lips are both pretty much the same distance from their chin.

Is that good enough for you?
 
LOL, you guys are taking this way too seriously.

It's obvious that Agent 13 is Sharon Carter and VanCamp is playing her. Now maybe they change her relation to Peggy, but something tells me there will still be a familial relation. I don't really see a resemblance between the two actresses, but why does that even matter?

Peggy is like 90 now and probably looks nothing how she did in her 20's ;) .

You've already mentioned that you had someone else in mind. My suggestion doesn't rely on that.

And I'm not disagreeing with your visual perception. I'm suggesting that you're seeing what you want to see because even though you had someone else in mind you're still pleased with what you got and your subconscious did the rest.

Could have done with a little less of a fuss. It was hardly unnecessary information I was asking for. You were adamant they share similar features, I asked if you could point some out. It was you who decided to go into so much detail.


Edit:

I don't. I'm just playing devil's advocate for the most part.

THIS! Although I do disagree about VanCamp not resembling Atwell. I actually think the bone structures in their faces are extremely similar.

Also, I wouldn't read too much into VanCamp being listed as a supporting actress in the film in the press release. Scarlet is a more well known name and that's likely why she's mentioned more prominently. At the moment VanCamp just doesn't have the same level of fame that Scarlet does. I'm fairly certain that Sharon is still one of the major characters in the film and will most definitely still be Steve's new love interest. As has already been mentioned, the reason for her only being listed as Agent 13 is likely because neither Steve, nor most of the audience will know who she is and Marvel wants it to be a surprise when her relation to Peggy is revealed.

Aren't you pleased with what you got as well? I'd say most people here are pleased with what they got. But not all of you see a resemblance. I'm sorry but you're just wrong about this one point, there's no other way to put it.

I already pointed the features out a whole page ago.

I never take arguing over the internet seriously. I find it engaging.

Yeah don't you guys remember Tommy Lee Jones being second billed in the first film over Atwell, Stan AND Weaving?

I don't really care at the moment. She looks very pretty, that's definitely a good thing, but I don't know her stuff. I have no misgivings about her casting really though and I'm still looking forward to the film.


But not all of you see a resemblance. I'm sorry but you're just wrong about this one point, there's no other way to put it.


Well there are tons of other ways about it, but I'll settle for letting you believe what you want to believe. I don't think this conversation is going anywhere interesting.

My apologies then, I must have skimmed over that one.

The thing is, I don't "believe" it, I KNOW it. This is my eyes and my brain we're talking about here. There's nothing wrong with you questioning it or suggesting otherwise. But I'm the one who gets the final say on this one because I'm the only person here who knows what's going on in my own brain.

No problem.
 
I really hope Marvel isn't prudish about Cap and women in this movie again. Cap needs to get laid.

I don't think any Superhero has gotten laid during a MCU film except for Tony Stark.
 
It's a shame SHIELD agents don't wear those white bits. Emily would've looked great with those white gloves and belt etc.

You never know... we may yet get to see her in something similar.
 
I don't think that would have looked good on film. Though I do think the suits could have used the belts and harness you see in the comics, but maybe in black.
 
SHIELD jumpsuits in The Avengers looked great to me. The only thing missing was gloves. White, black whatever, but the uniform didn't look complete without gloves.

I'm not sure we'll ever see quite the classic image of Sharon, because she's likely to have her hair up (like Cobie Smulders) rather than down like in the comics. At least while on duty. When do you ever see women in uniform ever wearing their hair down?
 
Was Black Widow officially on duty when she had her hair down? Or more to the point, did her hair fall down during the struggle? I can see agents whose hair comes down in that way, but while on duty it would almost seem standard regulation that they would have to wear it up.
 
A few pointers:

1) Is Wasp even in this movie?

2) I'm actually fine with Emily VanCamp being Sharon. We could have gotten worse casting...(Imogen Poots? That Downton Abbey girl? WTF). After watching GoT I think Natalie Dormer would have been a great Sharon though.

4) I think they should keep Sharon in the SHIELD outfits. None of that white catsuit shoulder-window crap.

5) Regards to hair, I think all the women (should and do) have it up or kept short. The only reason Natasha didn't in IM2 was because...well, she's Natasha.

6) MARVEL is obviously putting down Emily's role as 'Agent 13', so we all get surprised when it is revealed at the end of the movie she is Peggy's granddaughter..../eyeroll
 
We haven't gotten anything regarding Wasp being in this.

Right? :ninja:
 
Sorry I only said that because she is in the poll. I wish we got her in this movie instead of Maria.

1) Nah

2) Natalie Dormer was already in the first Cap movie. Also Poots FTW :cmad:

4) What happened to 3? But anyway, she can still be in a white SHIELD outfit, not that I think she will.

5) Uh huh

6) I don't they're not going to wait until the end of the movie to reveal it.

How would that have ever happened though, since Maria Hill is a high ranking SHIELD agent (who has already appeared in the Avengers) and Wasp hasn't even been introduced? You could at most only get Jan in addition to Maria, but not instead of her.
