30,000th post!! Yea I realized about a week ago that I was as close to 30k as I was so got the idea then to use it to create this thread like the pathetic dork that I am
and hell I wound up creating the combined thread for the last two Harry Potter movies like almost about a year and a half before the first movie was released, so it seemed slightly less ridiculous to then do it here.
They're shooting both films back to back in roughly a 9 month block that was initially expected to start just before the end of this year, but I've read about reports now from multiple places that it looks like they've actually already begun down in Atlanta. Granted that could only mean a couple of the main stars so far.
Directed by Anthony & Joe Russo. Written by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely.
Confirmed cast (in one or both movies):
Robert Downey Jr as
Tony Stark/Iron Man. Chris Evans as
Steve Rogers/Captain America. Chris Hemsworth as
Thor. Mark Ruffalo as
Bruce Banner/Hulk. Benedict Cumberbatch as
Doctor Stephen Strange.
Guardians Of The Galaxy (Chris Pratt as
Peter Quill/Star-Lord, Zoe Saldana as
Gamora, Dave Bautista as
Drax The Destroyer, Bradley Cooper as
Rocket Racoon, Vin Diesel as
Groot). Jeremy Renner as
Clint Barton/Hawkeye. Elizabeth Olsen as
Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch. Paul Bettany as
The Vision. Sebastian Stan as
Bucky Barnes/The Winter Soldier. Benedict Wong as
Wong. James Brolin as
Thanos.
All but officially confirmed cast (in one or both):
Paul Rudd as
Scott Lang/Ant-Man. Chadwick Boseman as
King T'Challa/Black Panther. Scarlett Johannson as
Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. Anthony Mackie as
Sam Wilson/Falcon. Tom Hiddleston as
Loki. Samuel L Jackson as
Nick Fury. Tom Holland as
Peter Parker/Spider-man. Don Cheadle as
James Rhodes/War Machine. Evangeline Lilly as
Hope Van Dyne/Wasp.
Now there are other casting areas even aside from those where, at the moment it's not quite as close to being set to go, but all things considered it would make sense to see them included, again at least in one of the movies if not both. like Benecio Del Toro's
The Collector, or Cate Blanchett's
Hela and Jeff Goldblum's
Grandmaster, both from Thor 3. oh and though I wouldn't know specific character names, Kevin Feige has said that some Illuminati group members would appear somewhere in the story. Not sure yet about other sort of sub-villains that aren't confirmed as dead yet (Red Skull, Baron Zemo, etc... I wouldn't even say an Ultron reappearance is out of the question).
