Giffy here! I have spent the last five months setting this fan cast up, with lead in fan casts to familiarize you all with my choices for each individual Avenger, as well as supporting characters. I am very excited to finally present The Avengers.


CHRIS PINE - STEVE ROGERS/CAPTAIN AMERICA: Steve is now in modern times, and of course is the leader of The Avengers. I feel like I need to defend my casting of Chris Pine as Cap, as all of you criticize him in the role. Chris has played a lot of cocky roles, so I get how he wouldn't sit right with you all, but Chris has also shown that he can be serious and he does a good job at that. It's like Chris Evans as Captain America, you all thought he was too cocky and now you all accept him, it's called acting.


JOEL KINNAMAN - TONY STARK/IRON MAN: Joel Kinnaman returns as Tony Stark/Iron Man. I really love him as an actor, and I think he would bring a really cool and interesting take on the character.


ALEXANDER SKARSGARD - THOR: Alexander Skarsgard is tall, looks good with long blonde hair, and is a built Skandinavian. In general, Skarsgard fits Thor perfectly.


SAM ROCKWELL - BRUCE BANNER/THE HULK: Sam Rockwell plays Bruce Banner once again. Sam Rockwell is such a tremendous actor, and I think he would make a killer Banner/Hulk.


PHILIP WINCHESTER - HANK PYM/ANT-MAN: Philip Winchester would make a good Hank Pym. Mixed with his acting ability, he also has a resemblance to Pym in the comics.


RACHEL McADAMS - JANET VAN DYNE/THE WASP: Rachel McAdams reprises her role as Janet van Dyne/The Wasp in The Avengers. Rachel is a fabulous actress that can show off the fun side of Janet and bring out her more serious side.


MILLA JOVOVICH - NATASHA ROMANOFF/THE BLACK WIDOW: Milla Jovovich is Russian, looks like Natasha, and is a good actress. As seen in Resident Evil, she can be a badass. Milla Jovovich is ideal for Black Widow, I think.


LANCE REDDICK - NORRIN RADD/THE SILVER SURFER: I'm going to go into more cosmic stuff in later fan casts, and so I thought it would be interesting to have Silver Surfer being in the film as a antagonist at first being partnered with Loki, and then coming to The Avengers' aid towards the end.


MATT SMITH - LOKI: Matt Smith returns as Loki in The Avengers. Loki was the first antagonist The Avengers went up against in the comic books, so it's only fitting I follow the source material.


BRYAN CRANSTON - NICK FURY: Bryan Cranston is an intense actor with a commanding presence. I think Cranston would make a great Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D.


LENA HEADEY - MARIA HILL: Lena Headey returns as Nick Fury's right hand woman, Maria Hill.


RYAN McPARTLIN - CLAY QUARTERMAIN: The main reason for bringing Quartermain back, is because of S.H.I.E.L.D's heavy presence. It would seem odd for him to not make an appearance. He doesn't have any big role in The Avengers.


JENNIFER LAWRENCE - GWEN STACY: In Spider-Man 3: The Last Hunt, Gwen went seperate ways with Peter Parker. I thought it might be funny if we see her again amongst the chaos in New York City.

i dont believe its a reboot, im guessing it a "the MCU we know does not exist" fancast.

-Pine is good, but not Cap material. not the best at least, u have Winchester as Pym, theres your Cap
-your Stark is WAAAAY off and Skarsgard could work, but he's a bit thin, and Thor's gotta be a masculine as possible. Skar is a pretty boy, to me.
-nothing wrong with the others. nothing at all. love the rest.
-Cranston would absolutely bring the James Bond-suave persona out of Fury, however, i prefer, a tough-as-nails Fury over suave. still good though

Jensen Ackles would be my pick for Steve Rogers. Chris Pine is better as Hawkeye. Matt Bomer is my pick for Iron Man, and Josh Holloway as Thor. Milla sucks! Emily Blunt as Black Widow. Rather than that, good job with casting.

@ager I ment if they ever reboot this this would be a possible cast,but now when Im looking at this again some of the choices are bad.

The thing is, I don't not like Chris as Cap, its I don't see him as STEVE ROGERS.

I can see him as Bucky version of Captain America, but not Steve

- I think Chris Pine should be your Hawkeye.
- Eh, I don't know about Kinneman. He looks too creepy to be a playboy.
- Skarsgaard would've been great as Thor. He's European-born even.

Other than that, I like the rest of the picks. Check out my fancasts when you get to it:

- Deadpool
- Spider-Man
- Titan AE
- Daredevil
- Guardians of the Galaxy

Kinnaman reminds me of a heroin addict, so I think he'd be better as The Doctor (from The Authority).

Matt Smith doesn't have the right look for Loki, but I think he can pull it off.

All in all, good job.

Some good work here but some are miscast.

JOEL KINNAMAN is a tall (6'2 1/2"), blonde Swedish actor.
STARK is a black-haired shorter man.
JOEL was originally up for the THOR role, that's who fits
him.

I don't see CAPTAIN KIRK as CAPTAIN AMERICA.
He's better suited for HAWKEYE'S personality.

ROCKWELL is already JUSTIN HAMMER.
Plus he just doesn't have the TONY STARK look.
Tony Stark has that kind of old-fashioned EROL
FLYNN look.

MILLA is flat-chested and doesn't look like NATASHA at
all. Red hair is not enough. BLACK WIDOW is buxom and
curvaceous.

The rest are OK.

SKARSGARD is perfect for the job!

Cool fancast. I like your picks of Milla Jovovich as Black Widow and Jennifer Lawrence as Gwen Stacy. And I'd take anyone over Chris Evans as Captain America anyday. He doesn't give me the Cap "feel". I strongly dislike Chris as Captain America actually, IMHO. He's a great actor tho, don't get me wrong. I guess the others are alright.
