Yeah, but expanding on current characters has been Marvel's bread and butter. Giving Wong (or Maximoff) a bigger role would do the MCU more favors than introducing someone else. It's why their villains suck, too. Cookie-cutter and no depth. I take "madness" to mean "chaotic". Scarlet Witch provides that element alone. I thought that this movie might be the highlight of Phase 4, but things are looking bleak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m MCUTWD (MCU fan til we die), but I’m more anticipating to see how these MCU Disney+ shows turn out and if they really required viewing for the movies.

@therealsilvermane Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) MCU Cosmic speculates that Emily Blunt is being considered for CLEA. I agree with that speculation. Clea is a character that must stand toe to toe with Dr Strange/Benedict Cumberbatch, and I think Blunt could pull it off. Plus, she kind of looks like she's from another dimension in an Ice Queen sort of way. I can already see the chemistry.

Drummy Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 I agree -- that would be plus casting. Marvel does cast people very well -- hope it works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@therealsilvermane Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 It's totally going to be Emily Blunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She'll be a major player and possibly a near equal to Stephen Strange. I think Emily Blunt and Cumberbatch would be a great pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blunt has met with Marvel already which means it’s for a project already in production. Everyone keeps saying Blunt as Sue Storm. That’s be horrible casting, imo. Susan needs to be warm, a wife, a mother, a sister, the moral anchor of the FF. Blunt would be wasted in such a role. There’s a reason Blunt was cast as Mary Poppins and the ice Queen. She can put on airs like nobody else. Clea will be a major player in the MCU and Blunt would make a GREAT Clea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@therealsilvermane Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 The way Dr Strange 2 is shaping up, I guess I can see why Derrickson dropped out. This isn't going to be a horror movie, it's going to be a full on superhero movie. And if so, it's for the better, imo. I go to superhero movies to see a superhero movie, not some psuedo-clever genre film dressed up as a comic book movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@therealsilvermane Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 1 minute ago, Bosco685 said: Rumored. How does a rumor go from that to 'already'?? Correction: Blunt has already ALLEGEDLY met with Marvel Studios, which mostly means it's for an MCU project now in production. There's a chance it could be future casting, like Mershahala Ali for Blade, but then they'd announce it to get hype up. Ant-Man 3 is coming and there is speculation that FF may debut there. But I'm hoping for Blunt as Clea. I couldn't think of a better actress who can match up equally to Benedict Cumberbatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think none of us knows Feige's approach from initial pitch discussions to final casting. He works at his own pace to win these actors over. So assuming it MUST be something near-term may miss that. Time will tell. That for sure we can count on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, doesn’t make sense to bring back and have to pay big money to the OG Avengers actors for a cameo in a non-Avengers movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
