Kellan Lutz To Play Greek Hero!

Kellan Lutz To Play Greek Hero!

Sounds like this will most definitely put the 'Twilight' star out of the Captain America running! (I told ya so!!!!)

This from Variety via etonline:

"Lutz will join Mickey Rourke and Freida Pinto in the film 'War of the Gods' and has been cast as the lord of the sea, Poseidon, Variety reports. The story follows the battle between the young warrior Theseus and his men versus the Greek gods. Their mission is to save the human race and defeat the wicked gods of the Titans.

Filmmaker Tarsem Singh ('The Cell') is on board to direct the film that is scheduled to begin production in April."

Seems like a cool flick.

Does this put Lutz out of the Captain America rumor mill?

No way he has time to do both. My guess is Evens will take the Cap role.(I told ya so!!!!!!!!!!!!) The Cap rumor mill is steep and almost endless. Yes most of the rumors are complete BS but they are also the topic of great debate. Stay tuned, tomorrow will feature yet even more unconfirmed rumors for us all to siff through and choose which one to believe, if any(only the biggest news, finally Evens accepts the Cap role,confirmed).

Marvel is on the verge of making a few of us lose interest due to them dragging their casting feet. Here's to hoping they hurry the he&& up and make a decision already!

I can see Lutz as a sad excuse for a vampire.

I've yet to hear of a "rumored" actor for the Captain America role that I could actually see fit the character. All these dudes up & running for the chance to play the superhero just aren't the right pick.

I think Evans has the look for Cap, but I will always see Johnny Storm when I see him now. It will be really weird to have him portray Cap as well. But they do need to go ahead and cast someone already!

POSEIDON he looks a little young for that part Im
thinking someone like Sean Connery or better yet
Liam Nielson or whatever his name is star from the movie TAKEN. He's no CAP, but neither is EVANS in my
book I'd rather have ACKLES or PINE.

Well since the Kellan rumor is over more than likely someother rumor will replace him. I bet it is going to be either:
a)Channing Tatum is Marvel's top choice for Captain America and is close to signing
b)Some disney actor is in talks to play Cap
c) Some unknown actor is in the running for cap
d) The guy who briefly played Superman in that god awful movie known as Epic Movie is now the front runner for cap

I think Daniel Gillies (played John Jameson in Spider-Man 2 as Mary Janes fiancé) would be a good pick to play Captain America. His role in SM2 wasn't a major one so we don't have that character grained in our minds & most importantly he has that old school classic WW2 look. Anyone agree???

Can't see him as Poseidon or Cap. He should work on his acting skills first. He couldn't even get the part of Conan.

Round 2 is up and ready. Check out Superhero March Madness: Elite Eight and cast your votes! Click the link or go to the Features tab

@Dog: I doubt he will get some acting class, he is too busy getting too much pussy to care.

@Joker: Yeah they sound similar, it is always like that in the movie business. However this movie will be a visual fest because Tarsem is at the helm. Check out his last movie the Fall, visually stunning on low budget.

Didn't STAN LEE tweet that CAPTAIN AMERICA was goingt to be announced today???

This crap is annoying....at least on Sunday we will find out if Jensen Ackles was cast or not.

Stan's tweets definitely alluded to a Cap announcement, hey, there's still a few hours left in the day ;)

You know I think people put to much stock in hair color, am I the only one who doesn't care if Cap is blond, I'd much rather an actor with brown or black hair who can nail the acting and voice rather than the look....

...and pleeeese don't come back with the blond hair and blue eye nazi argument, that lame and really unimportant.
