Rumor Control: Alice Eve & Kevin Pennington's Marvel Character Shortlist?

Rumor Control: Alice Eve & Kevin Pennington's Marvel Character Shortlist?

Some rumor/speculation on which Marvel character these two may possibly be playing in upcoming Marvel movies, not limited to The Avengers...

Source: Avengersnews

Ok, take this with a HUGE pinch of salt. Avengersnews.com isn't exactly seen as the most reliable source of info at the moment.

Anyway, they claim to have a source that says..

We now have received final word that Ms. Eve has signed a deal with the company this past week for an undisclosed character in an undisclosed film (much like a deal signed earlier this year by Kevin Pennington)..both actors are in final negotiations on character choices. The final candidates for both actors are:

Alice Eve: Sharon Carter, Carol Danvers, Enchantress and Shanna.

Kevin Pennington: Daniel Rand (Iron Fist), Rick Jones, Robert Reynolds (Sentry) and Ka-Zar.




As you will see from looking back at some of our older articles, Pennington was cited by Avengersnews to have been basically a sure thing for the role of Captain Marvel in The Avengers , now there is Sentry, Ka-Zar etc. Who knows.

They go on to say..

It’s likely that we could see them both (as 3 of the 4 characters) first in The Avengers, or in the Savage Land film Marvel is planning. Alice could also be used in Thor 2 as the Enchantress and Kevin could also be used as Daniel Rand in the Iron Fist film. Please do not take the above list as characters Marvel is looking to fill roles for in The Avengers.

Mmmmmm. Eve has not been confirmed by any other source as even being in talks, let alone having signed anything. But thanks to some investigative work by our own Multi, we do know that Pennington has at least some ties to the film. So MAYBE this is all legit. Confirmation/debunkification as soon as we have it. For now, get clicking yourselves below.

I could see Alice Eve as any of those. Same goes for Pennington except I cant see him as Sentry or Ka-Zar.

Ka-Zar please... if just for the outfit. He's a former underwear model... hello! Perfect fit.

Daniel Rand would be cool too since he's shirtless a lot. ;)

I don't care who Alice Eve gets to play. I'll be drooling at the sight of her on screen regardless.

Ms. Marvel is the ideal choice, but The Enchantress is an interesting role to play as well.

I don't think I've ever seen Pennington act, so I can only hope that he is given a role that isn't too important to the Marvel Universe.

Possibly(probably?) Odinsbeard. But Pennington has been confirmed as having something to do with the production so its worth reporting the rumor, even if its just to debunk it later on! Besides which, Alice Eve would make a pretty damn good Marvel lady I think, so I kinda hope there is some truth to this.

I could see Eve as Sharon Carter. it would be a nice way to tie in Captain America to the SHIELD storyline because of her aunt, Peggy Carter in the First Avenger.
and Pennington for Iron Fist!!!!

btw
check out Part VII of my Spider-man story here:

You know I dont think Enchantress is in the Thor movie, I never saw her name being mentioned in the list.

It'd be cool to have Hayley Atwell play a brunette Peggy Carter and her granddaughter, the blonde Sharon Carter. Both love interests of Captain America.

Not sure who I'd like to see Alice Eve as other than face down, ass up. :)

As for Pennington, I doubt he's playying Ka-Zar since it's been said that he'll be appearing in the Avengers. Josh Holloway should be Ka-Zar!

He is F'n Clay Quartermain! lol OMG lol Does any one know who Clay Quartermain is? He sucks, he was in the David H. Suckfest Nick Fury Movie, He is the ONLY shield agent that wears a ORANGE UNIFORM, he recently died in the comics(not that is matters much), and last but not least he is such a minuscule character yet he is in everything! That would make sense as far as the description of Pennington's character goes.

P.S. Clay Quartermain is possibly not dead and may actually be The Red Hulk(Rulk)

As for Alice Eve, I think the reports said she would be playing a shield agent so that would really narrow it down to Carol Danvers or Sharon Carter IMHO.

If I had to choose, it would be Alice Eve as Sharon Carter and Kevin Pennigton as Rick Jones. I dont believe a word that 'AvengersNews' says though so I'm not going to start getting excited about any of the above characters making an appearence! Nice find anyway ROR!

As for who should play Carol Danvers/Ms. Marvel...Yvonne Strahovski of course! :)

SydneySavage
SydneySavage - 6/8/2010, 9:34 AM
I think the best bet would be Sharon Carter & Rick Jones.

Although it would be insanely awesome if they were Enchantress & Iron Fist. (could they somehow be in Avengers?)

If not - they are both definately built/look like Shanna & Ka-Zar.

jeremy14 - 6/8/2010, 10:22 AM

Josh I am with you all the way!!!! I dont think Alice Eve is anything special. Body yes.....face No!! but I guess that is why light switches were created for.

Well, I'd love to have Carol in there but I'm not sure if I want Alice Eve to portray her. And I was hoping they'd keep Hayley Atwell for Sharon Carter, I think that'd be sweet. As for Pennington, I say Rick Jones :')

selinakyle - 6/8/2010, 10:39 AM
I don't think she is "mainstream" pretty but she aint bad to look at. Very doable.
