Iron Man 2 Tim Robbins is Howard Stark, Hawkeye & Black Widow are in?

wow. there is some serious overreaction in this thread

ditto to that...

This can be handled well by just having them in the back ground. Perhaps they can be SHIELD agents with small parts (to develop slowly for the Avengers and A2)... or they can even be introduced as part of a a hi-tech crack team set to take down IM... Like some Jusin Hammer created baddies... Mach1, Blacklash, Spymaster, Blizzard. IM scholls all of them, leading to a Crymsan Dynamo conflict in the end... Throughout the action, HE and BW are captured, and then convert in Avengers or in A2.

Lot's of ways to roll these characters in without watering down IM.
 
Hawkeye could be the villain. He was originally tricked into stealing from Stark for Black Widow. Im sure it will come with a "puppetmaster" character who the 3 could/would team up to take down. He also appeared as a REGULAR character in the Iron Man animated series.
 
Who would you guys want to see as Hawkeye and Black Widow?

I may catch some flack for this, but I think Seann William Scott would make for a good Hawkeye.

As for Widow, I'll just say I don't want Milla Jovovich. I can't stand her.
 
We're talking Widow and Hawkeye here,very subtle characters who are easy to adapt.These aren't big superhero icons with emblems on their chests who are going to crowd the film.

relax people

Ideally, Barry Pepper and Olga something or other (from Quantum of Solace).

I wouldnt be against Scott as Hawkeye
 
Kurylenko? That's an easy name to remember :hehe:
 
Cole Hauser as Hawkeye:

"What are you going to arrest me for Iron Man? Being awesome?"
 
Yeah, I'm thinking they got such a high profile actor so he could return in Captain America
 
Cole Hauser would make for a great Steranko Fury or Moon Knight. He just has an intensity to his performances that would serve those characters so well.

I want Hawkeye to be a wise-ass, and I've never seen Hauser in that kind of a role.
 
Dude, go watch The Break Up sometime. Hauser's actually really funny in it. And he only has like 2 or 3 scenes. Hauser is versatile and has range, he just doesn't get the chance to show it off very much.

Before Old School, Hollywood said Vince Vaughn couldn't do comedy.

And since then, Vaughn has pretty much forgotten he was an actor and simply plays variations of Old School over and over and over....

I trust your judgment on this one Vile, Hauser's great. I would have no complaints if he's Hawkeye. (Though I really wish Marvel would do MK with him as Spector.)

I agree with the big NO to Milla as Black Widow. It's not that I can't stand her or anything, it's that she's not voluptuous/curvy enough in my eyes. I don't want some skinny ass chick playing a female character like BW. That and I don't think she can act all that well.
 
Doesn't Black Widow have a lean atheltic body? Similar to that of a gymnist or a swimmer? Voluptuous and Black Widow aren't two words that seem to be synonymous with each other in my book.

If you just want someone that looks good in latex/leather/spandex then why not just hire a Playboy Playmate or a Fetish Model.

Famke Jensen doesn't come close to filling out Jean Grey's outfit but she was still cast.

In my opinion, for a character that is as athletic and acrobatic as Black Widow I think her body type should be more like this



And less like this



Milla out classes almost everyone mentioned for the role of Black Widow. She has the acting talent (the people that say she doesn't need to actualy watch something other than Ultraviolet and the Resident Evil movies) and she has already been trained in so much stunt work, martial arts, and gun handling that to hire someone else and waste the time and money getting her up to an acceptable level of skill would be pointless.

Was Famke Jensen anything close to the body type that Jean Grey has? Nope.

I never said I liked Famke Jensen playing Jean Grey now did I? She was just ok in my book for that character, they could have done a lot better.

Just about every Marvel/DC femal character has been curvy. Yeah Black Widow is a bit more athletic but I guess I don't see Milla being right for the role.

Oh yeah, all those reasons you picked why Milla is right for the role are pretty much why I don't want her in it. Basically, I think she's been in too many films as an action type woman and when watching the film I'll just see Milla and not Black Widow.

She may be a better actress than most think if you've seen more of her films but she plays her 'action woman' characters about the same...which is how I'm sure she'd approach the role of Black Widow.

That's just my opinion on it, maybe if she by chance is actually casted she could prove me wrong.
 
If they pick someone other than Mila Kunis it will be alright. Just when I was starting to like her with Forgetting Sarah Marshall, she goes and does Max Payne as Mona Sax playing a Russian mob assassin.
 
Figs, you do realize that every female comic book character is drawn to have the typical "perfect fantasy girl" proportions right? Big bust, small waist, big hips all packaged in a skin tight outfit. They don't have realistic forms.

If you look at Milla's entire list of movies she has done, she only has three characters where she is that type you are referring to. Leeloo, Violet, and Alice. Everything else she does she just plays a normal person. And in her next four movies that are coming out she is playing a serial killer, a FBI investigator, an alcoholic ex-stripper, and a 1876 Russian seductress.

Other than being a skilled fighter, Leeloo isn't really similar to Alice or Violet at all. She played that character like an vulnerable, innocent child.

I've never bought into that "I want to see the character not the actor" because it can be used by anyone to shoot down an idea by saying that the actor has made a name for themself so they will be seen as the actor and not the character. It just seems like an easy cop out. And just image if someone at WB had vetoed the casting of Ledger for TDK because he felt that people would just see "the guy from Brokeback Moutain" instead of The Joker.

HailtotheKing, yes I know that females in comics are always drawn with exaggerated proportions. I don't expect them to get actresses with the body of Playmates or Pornstars to look as 'busty' as they do in the comics.

I just don't care for Milla I guess. I liked her a lot in The 5th Element but for some reason I hope they pick someone else.

Maybe get a new face out there for the role.
 
Hawkeye - Jensen Ackles. I know fanboys throw him out for EVERY male role, but this is one that actually fits him.
Black Widow - The obvious choices are Milla Jovovich & Olga Kurylenko, but neither really is that great of an actress, imo. I was thinking Yvonne Strahovski from Chuck, but she's Australian. Not really a big deal to me, I know others probably feel differently.
 
I like Cole Hauser for Hawkeye.

As for Black Widow, I think they might go with Olga but she is just a body and face. I would rather someone with a little talent eventhough I doubt that Black Widow will be in more than a few scenes.



Tim Robbins wouldn't have been my choice for Stark's dad but he is talented. He's got to grow a power 'stache for his role.
 
We should start a whole banner movement for Cole "Being Awesome" Hauser as Hawkeye.
 
Is Cole Hauser the actor who was the bounty hunter in Pitch Black?
