her name is 'scarlet witch' I'm sure Joss can come up with something. ;-)

they can always, somehow, connect her to Thor's universe... she would fit right in with Thor + Loki's costumes.

(Wanda + Pietro can be separated at birth, and Wanda was taken to Thor's universe because of her powers...)

If they can figure out a good organic way to justify it ala Magneto's helmet, that would be great. But I can't imagine any good reason to make her wear it that wouldn't be more in service to getting her in the costume than it would be in service to the plot. We'll see though. It's not impossible.

 

[Extra Sauce]

Watched Martha Marcy May Marlene last week, she was great in it. This is fantastic news.

 

[Tom_Cody]

Uggghhh, I'll never understand why they changed his costume for Avengers. The top one is SO GOOD.

Too true.

 

[Hot Coldman]

I don't have much of a problem with it. I just hate that he wears a helmet. And I hope they show us what he has in those pouches.

Sounds like it's throwing knives, based on Winter Soldier footage reports. And yes, the helmet is the big problem with the look.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

The colors are bright and pop which match the tone of the movie. You don't want Cap fading into the background.

It won't appear exactly like that after color grading and post-production.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

I miss the Captain America suit. The one in the Avengers was... shitty. Phil Coulson shouldn't be allowed to design... fashion.

 

[fallengorn]

His Avengers costume was fine. They just needed to revamp the helmet.

[Anticitizen One]

So much for Saorise Ronan as Wanda.

Spoiler

=/

Saorise is gonna be Jaina Solo in episode 7 instead

It's going to be weird seeing Aaron Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen playing husband & wife in Godzilla and brother & sister in the Avengers the following year.

 

[JaseC]

Seems clear now that she took herself out of the running for this for a shot at Star Wars.

wasn't it confirmed she turned the role down, or something?

This theory has been floating around for a little while now, but she addressed it at TIFF:

I don't have the link on hand, but in one of the (many) interviews from TIFF, she was asked about the rumours regarding her supposedly passing on the offer of Scarlet Witch (The Avengers 2), and although her response isn't exactly to the point, she more or less confirms that she didn't get that far into the process.

Edit: Here we go (skip to 2:15):

Was [playing Scarlet Witch] ever something that was really discussed?

Not really. I mean, you know, there's lots of things that always float about and they're kind of fleeting for a second, but you know--

There was not much there?

No.

Squint your eyes a bit and it's basically like the Ultimate versions of Wanda and Pietro!

 

[ReiGun]

I love Wanda trying to give Cap shit for thinking incest is weird. Like that's an old fashioned notion or something.

 

[fallengorn]

Ugh, please take that Loeb out of here.

 

[Funky Papa]

Ultimates 2 and 3 don't exist.

Cleanse that filth.

Every time I see these images, I can't stop laughing. I've been laughing for like five minutes cause it's so so damn funny. How can anyone think that was a good idea?

 

[RedSwirl]

So they can't even mention Magneto at all?

 

[Ridley327]

So they can't even mention Magneto at all?

I imagine that there will be a cute reference in there that alludes to their parentage that avoids using several words that begin with the letter M.

well, it's not as weird when it's mutant twincest, amirite? ;-P

Spoiler

tbh, I always get Quicksilver mixed up w/ Northstar and forget he's not gay. LOL

 

[Dead]

That Wanda panel is the greatest thing.

 

[Nesotenso]

Loeb took it and ran with it. He was trying to be edgy and in tone with Millar. But trying to out do Mark Millar is a cause no one should be taking up. That and Loeb has been terrible for the longest time.

 

[xaosslug]

someone (Stark?) will probably make a quip about their father and they will share a look and say - in unison - 'we don't talk about him.' or something.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Oh my God, I'm still laughing.

Introducing incest is one thing. But that dialog... There's no reason Captain America is so naive. Why is Wasp condescending about it? Aparently, incest was invented in the post-war era and got super popular. Blaarrrgh.

 

[ReiGun]

The fact that Wolverine is just watching them do it tho...

lmaoooo

The correct answer is probably to sell more toys to kids. Can't have them selling the same costume for two different movies.

The chin strap really helped Evans in The First Avenger as he doesn't have the jaw line to carry the traditional Captain America look and he didn't really fill out the costume that well. A bit more padding or muscle mass would have gone a long way.

Guy you're fucking up

You're fucking up bad.

... Great. Now I get to think of Scarlet Witch/Quick Silver incest all through out Godzilla..

Ultra creep simp powers.

Ultra creep simp powers.

That thing about good old muttonchops being a mentor figure for the X-girls?

Yeah...

Captain America. Typical closed minded republican

 

[Blader]

Cap's "But..." is what sells it for me. :lol

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

And I'm kind of glad Saoirse Ronan turned down the role, there's something about her I don't really like...can't put my finger on it.

 

[Slayven]

Ultimate Universe blows and will be gone soon, lets move on.

 

[Dysun]

Ultimate Spidey was good for a long time

 

[Slayven]

Ultimate Spidey was good for a long time

He will be spared.

 

[Aasir Osu]

My apologies if this has been answered in this thread, but: is there a definite source that details what characters and concepts that Fox has rights to? Some of the responses on this topic have been super-specific, so I'm wondering where this info has been discussed or disclosed.

I guess I should look into this Inhumans push from Marvel, and what it might mean for their regular roster of mutants; part of me even dreads getting back into all of this, as I'm sure whatever's been going on in the MU (and DC for that matter) is hopelessly convoluted. I wonder if either company would ever dare publish monthly single issue books with no concern for shared-universe continuity?

 

[JaseC]

And I'm kind of glad Saoirse Ronan turned down the role, there's something about her I don't really like...can't put my finger on it.

Scroll up a bit. She didn't turn down the role.

 

[Village]

He will be spared.

Keep miles, some how integrate him into normal verse.

Then burn EVERYTHING.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

So what is the story with the Ultimate Universe? Is it getting merged with the main universe and everyone (except Spider-Man) will be killed?

 

[Xion385]

Ultimates 2 and 3 don't exist.

Cleanse that filth.

Ultimates vol. 2 was actually good. I hated hispter/environmentalist Thor. Vol. 3 just took a crap on everything that was established in the first two.

 

[cLOUDo]

wait a minute...there is a third Olsen?!

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

wait a minute...there is a third Olsen?!

Best Olsen.

 

[JaseC]

Best Olsen.

An unequivocal truth.

 

[Unknown One]

Wow she's much hotter than her sisters.

 

[Replicant]

Ugh, is Aaron whatshisname is really Quicksilver? Not really fond of him.

Squint your eyes a bit and it's basically like the Ultimate versions of Wanda and Pietro!

Oldboy'd?

No head dress.
