I guess Paula Adbul was really popular in the eighties

yeah but it's a big jump from Abdul to Winona Ryder (who used to be the top casting call choice for Jan).

so I'm guessing it's a money or scheduling issue.

I still hope they get Cliff Collins jr. in that role

i'm not thinking that it's an either/or situation. i think that Pena and Collins were supposed to both show up as villains; maybe Collins as the enforcer of Pena's dictator.

She was pretty big circa 1988-1994 or so.

Elihas Starr aka Egghead is in the Marvel's anime movie Avengers Confidential: Black Widow & Punisher

 

[Dr. Evil]

If they cast Bill Foster and they want someone older who is closer to Pym's age, how about Billy Dee Williams? Forget Morgan Freeman or Danny Glover.

 

[chamber-music]

Danny Glover would be cool.

 

[Ant-manic]

Danny Glover would be cool.

he's too old for this ****.

Spoiler

He looks nothing like his comic counterpart. Starr plays a Shield scientist and lover of Black Widow who joins up with a villainous terrorist group called Leviathan to create super-soldiers from the stolen DNA of the Avengers.

weird. thanks for the info. i wonder if they would try to use that in the Ant-Man movie; tweak Egghead that way.

I realized why he was so different was because they merged him with

Red Guardian for some reason.

No mentions, but they did show scenes from the Ant Man Short film Edgar did a few years ago.
