Sharon Stone's Mystery MARVEL Role Will Apparently Have Heat Powers

Back in May, we received word that Sharon Stone would be appearing in an upcoming Marvel movie and today, we may have our first details on the part and it sounds like she'll be playing a superhero!

In early May, former Academy Award-nominee Sharon Stone revealed on The Late Late Show with James Corden that she would be making a small appearance in an upcoming Marvel movie and while she wouldn't share much else on which movie and/or her part in said movie, she did repeatedly confirm that she had already signed the contract as well as an NDA.

With production currently underway on James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 and production on Spider-Man: Homecoming and Thor: Ragnarok expected to kick off shortly, it was widely assumed that if she were making an appearance somewhere, it would be in one of those three films. There's also an off-chance it could be James Mangold's Wolverine 3, which just started filming, or Doug Liman's Gambit, which launches this fall, but it's probably unlikely. Details on her role were more or less nonexistant, save for the fact that it will be a small role, but it looks like a recent interview may have uncovered something very intriguing.

In an extensive interview with AARP, where Stone appeared alongside Jane Fonda (Grace and Frankie) and Alfre Woodard (Luke Cage), the Casino actress revealed that her role will be superheroic in nature and that she'll have a very distinct set of powers that should separate her from anyone else currently residing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Check out the excerpt below:


Meanwhile, Woodard and Stone are about to become very familiar to the highly sought-after comic-book-film crowd: Woodard's character is a villain in Marvel's anticipated Netflix series Luke Cage; Stone has been cast as a superhero — she'll only reveal that her secret power is heat — in a yet-to-be-named movie, also for Marvel.

Heat powers? Now, this just got interesting. One of the more prominent female Marvel characters with heat manipulation/generation abilities is of course Angelica Jones a.k.a. Firestar, but considering she's a mutant and has ties to the X-Men, the rights to her are likely owned by 20th Century Fox. However, she also has ties to the Avengers, so it could be Scarlet Witch/Quicksilver situation once again. Other options include Magma, Crystal, and Firebird, but most of them have more ties to the X-Men than they do with any of the characters owned by Marvel Studios. 

Our best best is probably that she's playing some obscure alien character in Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2, possibly Frankie Raye a.k.a. Nova, or maybe even an older, seasoned Firestar to mentor young Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Homecoming, but if you want a theory that's a little outside the box, she could be playing someone in Thor: Ragnarok that has ties to Surtur or even Surtur himself, if Marvel decides to go in a drastically different direction with the character, but then again there are no guarantees the classic villain will even make an appearance in the Taika Waititi-directed film. Stone did admit the character is a hero, so the latter theory is highly unlikely at best, but it would be kind of interesting if it were true. 

So, what do you guys think? Who could she be? Sound off with your thoughts below!

"Heat" being a play on words like her last reference to a 'tiny' part.

Heat is this case being the always described 'hottie' Janet Van Dyne.

Brilliant actress. Hopefully shes in the MCU and not Fox-Marvel.

Maybe its Crystal



She's Inhuman but maybe they'll allude to that or just change her origin all together. She's a member of the Inhuman Royal Family.

She could be introduced in either GOTG 2 or Thor as both are cosmic.

She has history with the Fantastic Four too. She can manipulate all the elements, but maybe in the MCU, she just manipulates fire.

@ComicsBornAndBred - GOD NO! Crystal is supposed to be around 20-to 30. She is very young, the younger sister of medusa. If we have stone for crystal, the streepe for medusa.

@Theunderdog - lol haha. I doubt she's Crystal, just a thought.

@Theunderdog - True. Besides, production on the Inhumans film has been pushed back.

It's still in development at Marvel- probably won't come out until Phase Four or Five.

@Theunderdog - I agree that Crystal should be played by a young actress, but you shouldn't be so certain about her age. Inhuman's have extended lifespans like Asgardians and most are hundreds of years old.

@Theunderdog - that didnt stopped Marvel from making Hank Pym an old man or Aunt May into her 50s than 70s-80s

@eagc1995 - If Crystal is aged up, then the royal family needs to be aged up too. Medusa would be around 60/70 years old looking, black bolt would be 70/to 80 years old looking. With Crystal, the story is different. Her age is linked to the other characters. I can't imagine grannies as the inhumans.

@Magus - I am talking in term of her looks. She look 25 or so. She dated Johnny Storm and Quicksilver, making her roughly the same human age as them, but older in inhuman age.

@ComicsBornAndBred - i hope to god not. She's WAY too old. Crystal is one of my favorite female superheros, and i want them to get her right.

Everybody was reporting that was playing Janet Van Dyne. It sure doesn't sound like it.

I still think they should get Catherine Zeta Jones for Janet.

@PsychoticSpaceRaccoon - I guess this bit of news rules out Stone as being Janet.

That being said, I do hope Zeta-Jones does get to play that role. It would be interesting to see her and Michael share the big screen again.....
