The Marvel boss says they figured things out early, but he doesn’t say what they decided. That’s the case with this latest quote especially when it comes to Aaron Taylor-Johnson. And it’s clear from Feige’s comments that they at some point discussed bringing Aaron Taylor-Johnson into the mix.įeige is noticeably coy when talking about the direction of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, careful to never really give away too much while also making it seem like literally everything is on the table.

Sure, in this recent sequence it was Peters, but that played out to show that as Feige put it, people were “messing around with Wanda.” With the addition of the Multiverse to the Marvel Cinematic Universe basically, anything is on the table. Considering how WandaVision has played out, with a constant bending and rebending of reality (which is used very, very loosely here) there’s no guarantee that we can’t see both versions of Quicksilver at some point. It’s this last part of the quote that is the most interesting. Just another way that certain people were messing around with Wanda.” So there were all sorts of discussions, but I believe we ended up going with what you saw relatively early on in the development process. My favorite part of the process is always the very, very beginning, when we’re figuring out what something could be and at the very, very end when we’re finally refining it and then putting it out into the world. That’s one of the fun things about developing these things blue-skying it in a room. “Well, there are discussions on everything at one point or another. He didn’t offer specific details about contracts or timelines or even past entities, but he did intimate that the actor was very much considered during the process. So yeah, I'd love to be in it."ĭamn, Evan Peters could certainly pass for Saoirse Ronan's sibling.During a question and answer panel for the Television Critics Association, Kevin Feige was asked specifically about the casting of Evan Peters over Aaron Taylor-Johnson, as it were, and why one made an appearance in WandaVision and not the other. I think it’s very different from what anyone else has done. I love Joss and I love those films, and I love his handle on them and how he portrayed these kinds of superheroes. "I have heard about it and yes, I would," said Ronan in a recent interview with The Mary Sue when asked if she would be interested in taking on the role. and that actress is currently rumored to be "Hanna" star Saoirse Ronan. It may come down to Scarlet Witch being cast first and then finding an actor who could pass for that actress' twin brother.
X MEN QUICKSILVER ACTOR MOVIE
Fallon himself half-jokingly suggested Channing Tatum, who will probably find his way into a Marvel movie sooner or later either way. Sheesh, who would've thought that Pietro Maximoff would be so popular with the moviemakers?Īs far as who will play Quicksilver in "The Avengers 2," we can for now only speculate. But it looks like Quicksilver himself will be, which means we'll be seeing two different actors playing the same character a mere ten months apart from each other ("X-Men: Days of Future Past" opens in July 2014, followed by "The Avengers 2" in May 2015).

So that at least more or less confirms that Evan Peters won't be pulling double-duty for both Fox and Disney. When Fallon asked if Whedon had cast the roles yet, he replied with "Not yet. we're going to have a brother-sister team, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, who were great mainstays in 'The Avengers' when I was reading the comics," said Whedon on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon this week.
