Some news and rumors have hit the intrawebs and DFAT is rounding them up for you!

 

Thor 2: The Dark World

Viggo Mortensen (Lord of the Rings) is being rumored as the choice to play Doctor Strange, IF the character is even confirmed. Pour salt all over this one. But I like it.

The Enchantress and The Executioner are being hinted at again. These  two Asgardian villains were rumored to be the villains, even before the casting of Christopher Eccleston as Malekith. If these two were to show up at some point in Thor 2 or even have a larger role than expected, with the addition of the Radioactive Man to Iron Man 3, and the rumors that Baron Zemo will be showing up in Captain America 2, we may truly be looking at the arrival of the Master’s of Evil.

Filming at Bourne Wood, England:

Our first set photos of Chris Hemsworth on the set of Thor 2. Check out the one where he’s skankin’ to ska!

Here’s a couple pics of  Jamie Alexander, who reprises her role as Sif.

Finally, some awesome set pics from the battle itself. The pics features the Asgardians versus the Marauders, probably Dark Elves.

 

 

Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

During the Toronto Film Festival, Cap himself Chris Evans gave some insight to Collider’s Steven Weintraub when Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier will begin filming:

And for all the Marvel fans…Chris Evans says filming on the CAPTAIN AMERICA sequel begins in March 2013.

 

 

Avengers 2

And finally today in Marvel news Gwyneth Paltrow, who plays Tony Stark’s girlfriend/best friend/savior Pepper Potts, may not be returning in Avengers 2. Here’s what she had to say:

“I just came off of Iron Man 3, which is as special effects-y and action-y as it gets, so to do something like [Thanks For Sharing] where it’s really small, funny and exciting, is really great. I don’t know [about returning for The Avengers sequel], I’m getting old for this shit, you know what I mean?”

 

Marvel Studios’ Phase 2 kicks off with Iron Man 3 on April 24th, 2013! Followed by Thor 2: The Dark World on November 6, 2013! Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier is scheduled for April 2014!

Stay tooned 😛
