AVENGERS 2 MOVIE CASTING BY DDD- AN AVENGERS' CELEBRATION!

This Is Not Exactly Entirely “My” Fancast...It's How I Consider
The Sequel To AVENGERS 1 Should Go, Who The Next Additions Should
Be And Who I Think Should Go!

This is not exactly entirely my “own” Fancast so please don't start slammin'
on me for not being very original. I've done my own “all original” AVENGERS
castings. This casting is for the sequel to the film, THE AVENGERS 1,
directed by JOSS WHEDON. I almost have as many new additions to THE AVENGERS
than what I have of the original cast so I actually AM being VERY original & creative!

I've done an AVENGERS 2 Fancast before but with all the new castings and new
news about THE AVENGERS movie I've created this NEW IMPROVED AVENGERS
casting.

First-off, I think THE HULK needs to go! That's what he did in the original
AVENGERS and that's what should happen here. BANNER/THE HULK is just too
volatile and dangerous to be an integral part of THE AVENGERS in the log-run.
Just look how easy it was for LOKI to use him against the group. Besides he's
getting his own TV show. BANNER/HULK works better when he's on the run all on
his own with THUNDERBOLT ROSS and his crew trying to run his ass down!

So for AVENGERS 2 I'd give HULK the boot and bring in BLACK PANTHER, WARBIRD
and WASP. And HANK PYM as YELLOW JACKET, who can both shrink & grow wings
and shoot-up to his 50-foot maximum giant-size.

Of course with HANK & JAN in here I believe the villain should be none other
than ULTRON!

When you bring MS. MARVEL/WARBIRD in here, with her connection to CAPTAIN
MARVEL and the KREE aliens, you set-up the villains for AVENGERS 3, the one &
only shapeshifting SKRULLS & their “SECRET INVASION”. (I'm working on THE
AVENGERS 3 casting and it will be here in the near future.)

I think T'CHALLA/BLACK PANTHER needs to be in AVENGERS 2. Right now THE
AVENGERS look like an ARYAN NATION meeting! Lol

I personally want to see less NICK FURY in here. He's not an AVENGER and
should never be one! COBIE SMULDERS should come into the forefront here as
the liaison to THE AVENGERS (Besides I want to see more of COBIE in that
skin-tight black uniform!) .
:)

THE AVENGERS are not a government group and they shouldn't be one! They are
a free SUPERHERO citizen's group! S.H.I.E.L.D. is the “GOVERNMENT GROUP”!
I want to see TONY STARK set them up in AVENGERS TOWER and construct the
AVENGERS' own aircraft. THE AVENGERS don't belong on the GOVERNMENT
HELLICARRIER! They should only have MARIA HILL as the government LIAISON,
not their BOSS! NICK FURY is not THE AVENGERS' boss and should never be!

TONY STARK in IRON MAN 2 told the government, who was trying to bully him, to
jump-off! THE AVENGERS should not be being bullied & bossed by the government
either!

(ALREADY ESTABLISHED)

CAPTAIN AMERICA
(STEVE ROGERS):
CHRIS EVANS

TABRETT BETHELL is able to play a beautiful yet very tough heroine with ease.
All those otherwise mentioned don't have that quality, like ALICE EVE. Plus
TABRETT'S a virtual unknown, like CHRIS HEMSWORTH, which I'd like to see take
the part. I think she's perfect for MS. MARVEL/WARBIRD.

WARBIRD
(CAROL SUSAN JANE DANVERS):
TABRETT BETHELL

IRON MAN
(ANTHONY “TONY” STARK):
ROBERT DOWNEY JR.

I formerly wanted MORENA BACCARIN to play WASP but now since NATHAN
FILLION isn't doing the part of HANK PYM I want another WHEDONITE to take
the role, ELIZA DUSHKU. I want ALAN TUDYK (another WHEDONITE) to play
HANK PYM and I think ELIZA and him make a nice couple. TUDYK looks just like
HANK PYM from the comics and has the right persona to play him well!

(JANET PYM):
ELIZA DUSHKU

YELLOW JACKET
(HENRY “HANK” PYM):

ALAN & ELIZA-- NICE COUPLE!

HAWKEYE
(CLINTON “CLINT” BARTON):
JEREMY RENNER

MORRIS CHESTNUT is one of my favorite actors. His work in the TV series “V” was
some very strong acting! He was my first choice for BLACK PANTHER a long time
ago here on CBM and I feel he has become the foremost candidate for the
AMERICAN-educated King Of Wakanda, T'CHALLA.

SUPPORTING CAST:

ELIZA was probably used as the model for this illustration of JOCASTA which
is fitting because I believe she should play JANET PYM & her robotic A.I. Counterpart.

CGI + ELIZA DUSHKU

COBIE is also an extremely strong candidate for WONDER WOMAN in that other

I personally love this casting for CAPTAIN AMERICA'S modern love-interest and
S.H.I.E.L.D. AGENT (The granddaughter of PEGGY CARTER), AMANDA RIGHETTI.
AMANDA could have played a number of MARVEL characters but casting her as
SHARON CARTER was a FANTASTIC choice!

You think a guy like Tony Stark especially the movies versions going to work for SHIELD for ever. The Avengers and SHIELD have always had love/hate relationship. Hopefully they go there seperate ways one solution is Cap pulling rank like he did in the New Avengers.
DDD
DDD - 8/7/2011, 8:31 AM
I'm not entirely advocating THE AVENGERS & SHIELD
completely go their separate ways. I just want
there to be a liaison (MARIA HILL) to SHIELD
and the government. SHIELD is the government
group. THE AVENGERS are and have always been
a private citizen's group of SUPERHEROES.

THE AVENGERS should never be run by the government!
An AVENGERS SUPERHERO is a free citizen,free to
tell the government to take a flying leap if they
want to, like TONY did in IRON MAN 2. American
citizens have civil liberty rights to make their
own decision.

NICK FURY is only an adviser not the boss! He has
decisions where it relates to the government but
not THE AVENGERS.

There's nothin' wrong with THE AVENGERS having
a liaison connection to SHIELD.

I like the new additions but i always wanted/expected Paul Betteny/JARVIS to voice Ultron. it made sense to me that theyd just use the same AI voice for Ultron as they did for JARVIS and ultimately Vision.

You know, I've contemplated about throwing a fancast up here. I've thought about using the plot with Loki, Thanos, and the Skrulls, because it'd make for a huge, Transformers-style battle.

Okay, here's my opinions:
- I'm about due to watch season 2 of Legend of the Seeker so I can see more of Tabrett Bethell as Cara. I'll see how she is. But I'm a firm supporter of Kristanna Loken as Ms. Marvel. She's 5'11" and can kick some serious tush (Bloodrayne, even if that film blows!)
- I said it before, but it bears repeating: CRAIG FERGUSON AS ANT-MAN. I've burned through 2 seasons of Eureka, and I'm convinced that he'd make a perfect Henry Pym. Humorous, self-loathing, a little shy... what more could you ask for? But this is your cast, so Alan Tudyk would work (I loved his work in Transformers: Dark of the Moon).
- No, can't see Eliza Dushku as Wasp, no offense. I'm kind of into Autumn Reeser (she played a doctor in No Ordinary Family. Here's a shot of her to see what I mean:

MikeZ - 8/7/2011, 9:52 AM
And here's Kristanna and Colin Ferguson (not CRAIG).

DDD - 8/7/2011, 6:24 PM
JBATESY@ I wasn't saying there is anything
wrong with AVENGERS 1. Of course no one has seen AVENGERS 1 yet but by all the trailers, posters
and announced casting it's fairly apparent that
they are telling the 616 (classical) story of LOKI
influencing THE HULK to turn on his fellow AVENGERS.
And THOR having to be the one to ultimately stop
him.

So far in all the solo movies SAM JACKSON as NICK
FURY has seemed like he's being bossy with the
individual members of the AVENGERS but he is not
their boss in the comics.

I don't like the idea of the government bossing
around THE AVENGERS. That isn't in the true
spirit of THE AVENGERS. They are not a government
military group. They are free citizen superheroes.
SHIELD doesn't run AVENGERS and never should!

The AVENGERS reside in AVENGERS TOWER and fly their
own jet. I want to see them develop this in AVENGERS
2.

THE AVENGERS should become more of a separate
citizen's group in AVENGERS 2.
DDD
DDD - 8/7/2011, 6:30 PM
Thanks AGER@!

ULTRON is HANK PYM'S robotic invention.
ULTRON should have an electronic version
of HANK PYM'S voice. JARVIS is a whole
other animal. PYM isn't British. ULTRON'S
voice shouldn't be British.

JARVIS is TONY STARKS' invention, not
HANK PYM'S.
DDD
DDD - 8/7/2011, 6:53 PM
Thanks for your comment ROADDOG@!

Autumn Reeser would make a great JANET PYM,
she's cute as all get out! She was great
on NO ORDINARY FAMILY.

But I want to see WHEDONITES play HANK &
JAN and I think ELIZA & ALAN make a very
nice and believable couple together.
They have onscreen chemistry, just watch
DOLL HOUSE and you would see.

KRISTANNA is ridiculously beautiful but I
think she has become to old to play MS.
MARVEL/WARBIRD. I'd like to see someoone
younger take the part. It needs to be someone
tall, beautiful and tough like KRISTANNA that's
for sure!

ALICE EVE has been mentioned and I cast her
once in one of my AVENGERS castings but I
have come to realize that she just looks too
damn Barby-doll for WARBIRD. Plus she's just
too high profile for my liking!

I want someone young, tall, beautiful, tough-
looking and virtually unknown for the role...
THAT'S TABRETT BETHELL! lol

Uh, I like COLIN FERGUSON but he just doesn't
seem like a genius scientist to me. He does
well in baby-sitting a town full of genius' but
he looks the part of the square-jawed sheriff
not a super-genius like HANK PYM.

ALAN TUDYK just looks more suited for the part
and like I said I'd like to see a WHEDONITE take
the part because JOSS WHEDON is hopefully directing
AVENGERS 2. ALAN TUDYK has those very qualities
that you mentioned about COLIN FERGUSON.

MikeZ - 8/7/2011, 8:08 PM
@ DDD - 8/7/2011, 6:53 PM

Well, I'm glad you responded.

Remember, this is your cast, not mine. Besides, I've got plans to cast Ferguson, Reeser, and Loken in the roles I've mentioned in a future Avengers 2 fancast.

Regarding your thoughts about Kristanna: I don't think age should matter. I've read Ms. Marvel's bio, and she's been around for a bit. I don't think she's in her mid-to-late 20's, if that's what you're implying (IF, because I don't know what you're getting at about Loken being too old). Loken is 32 years old (which, to me, isn't that old), knows how to fight based on Terminator: Rise of the Machines and Bloodrayne, and stands at 5'11", just like Ms. Marvel herself! I hear JoshW wants Yvonne Strahovski, but unlike Loken and Bethell (remember, I like your choice), she lacks the vocal presence. That's why I (and you as you cast New Avengers: Heroic Age a while back) think she'd make a better Mockingbird (and she's the precise height). Remember, like you, I'm looking to make fancasts that show faithfulness to the comics, which is why I chose who I did.

Same goes for Colin Ferguson. Yes, he has a square jaw. But lest we forget, Henry Pym may be a genius, but he's handsome. And while Jack Carter doesn't have major genius intellect, he has the dead-on character traits of Pym, so all you need is for Ferguson to adapt medical speak (much like Kiefer Sutherland, my choice for Beast in my upcoming X-Men fancast). It's like you casting Christian Kane for Wolverine, because you saw his performance on Leverage, and based on that, you gave him the role (and I'm doing the same thing for my X-Men cast). It would fit even better, because with his comic timing combined with Edgar Wright's directing skills, you could be pleasantly surprised with the results.

Now, Eliza Dushku as Wasp is a choice I cannot see. I'm surprised you wouldn't cast her as Rogue for the sequels to your first X-Men cast, because I've heard Eliza sport a solid Southern belle accent early in the second season of Dollhouse (it had Jamie Bamber in it), and Ashley Greene, despite her knowledge of Tae-Kown-Do doesn't have the best reputation on DListed (I forget who said it and what the words were, but some critic let off a red-hot rant against her). Eliza works better as the tough chick like Michelle Rodriguez.

Autumn Reeser, meanwhile, has a very plucky personality, has played a doctor on No Ordinary Family, stands the correct height of 5'4", and has Wasp-like bangs. I kind of like the take of Wasp on The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, the one who jokes around and whatnot, and Reeser would fit that version quite nicely.

By the way, I haven't commented on your choice for Black Panther. It's a tough one, because everyone's casting younger actors for the role. And I enjoyed Morris Chestnut's performances, especially in V, but I think ager had a great idea in Lance Gross. Yeah, he was in that piece-o'-garbage Tyler Perry sitcom House of Payne, but he's young enough for Black Panther. But I assume BP is older when he joins the Avengers, right?

By the way, I'm anticipating your third attempt at a Secret Invasion fancast. You did good with the last ones, but I wanna see an extensive fancast with the heroes that were key figures in the Skrull Invasion, especially Spider-Man, Wolverine, and a few others I know at the tip of my tongue. Also think about casting the major Skrull players like Queen Veranke, Emperor Dorrek VII, Kl'rt the Super Skrull, and a few others.

Take care!

Thanks JJ@ bud!

Yeah, it looks like my TABRETT BETHELL choice
is a pretty hard sell but watching LEGEND OF
THE SEEKER she just seemed more and more like
the tough yet gorgeous CAROL DANVERS, TO ME.

I just want a virtual unknown to play the part
so the actress doesn't overshadow the role.

CHRIS HEMSWORTH was an unknown before THOR and
look at how well that worked out!

CHRIS EVANS wasn't an unknown but he was used to
taking small independent movie roles that were
mostly teen fluff before he knocked CAPTAIN
AMERICA out of the park!

RDJ has taken a lot of independent movie parts
in the past.He's a true character actor in the
movies compared to taking nothing but big movies.
So he was great to do TONY STARK! He is a
chameleon-type actor.

Character-type actors are much more suited for
superhero movies because they sink entirely into
the role so well!

DDD - 8/8/2011, 2:21 AM
ROADDOG@, I would not be adverse to AUTUMN,
COLIN & KRISTANNA, that's for sure!

I just personally want to see a younger CAROL
DANVERS because she was young when she first
joined THE AVENGERS. KRISTANNA fits an older
mid-thirties CAROL to the "T", that's for
certain!

I wouldn't mind seeing COLIN as HANK PYM at all!
He surely fits him quite well despite what I said
about him seeming more tough-guy than scientist.
I personally want a WHEDONITE for nostalgia's sake.
I just want WHEDONITES for HANK & JAN! Call me a
sentimental ol' fool but I simply do!

ELIZA is just a lovely girl!
It would be great to see her in

SCARLET WITCH is stuck with FOX
