Has Emily Blunt Talked To Marvel Studios About Playing CAPTAIN MARVEL?

Emily Blunt has acknowledged her connection with the role of Captain Marvel a fair few times in the past, but strong fan support doesn't mean she's actually being eyed for the role! So, has the Sicario star actually spoken to Marvel Studios? The answer might just surprise you...

It's not hard to understand why Emily Blunt is a fan-favourite choice to take on the role of Carol Danvers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Even before proving her ass kicking action credentials in Edge of Tomorrow, the British actress was a popular pick for Captain Marvel. However, despite her name constantly being linked to the character, she most definitely isn't in talks for the role.

"It’s crazy," she tells MTV News."I’ve not had a phone call about it. Not one whisper of Captain Marvel has come my way. Promise. Promise promise. I don’t even know who Captain Marvel is!" So, she's clearly not a fan then! At this point, it almost feels like Blunt is becoming too obvious a choice, but then again, that didn't stop Benedict Cumberbatch being chosen to star in Doctor Strange! Who would you like to see bring Captain Marvel to the big screen? Sound off below...

Didn't Paul Rudd said the same when they asked him about Ant-Man?

To everyone bringing up the Paul Rudd and Cumberbatch examples, remember when this guy was heavily rumored for a particular role?

Well if she says she hasn't received a phone call that probably means she doesn't have a phone.

Even gave a similar response. For all we know, Blunt is being honest. Which is a shame, as I'd love her for the role.

I'd be really surprised if she was just messing around and was in talks for this, I don't think she really wants to get involved in a CBM franchise with multiple movies attached

Aren't we supposed to hear some casting and director news from Marvel soon? I think Feige said by the end of the summer

I'm sure she has at least googled Captain Marvel after being linked to the casting rumors, but she may not have met with Marvel...

Yo, she's lying. Pretty much confirmed she is Cap'n Marvel by now. Paul Rudd and Benedict Cumberbatch all did the same thing, must be Marvel's advise to deny everything.

Marvel better be calling Charlize Theron instead. Charlize better answer her phone.
