This was a relatively slow week for Marvel. This will be one of the shorter posts so far. This week's news dealt with a fan favorite speaking out on her willingness to play Captain Marvel, new footage for Agent Carter, Gwyneth Paltrow on her role in Captain America: Civil War, whether or not we will see Nova in Guardians of the Galaxy 2, and another possible addition to the cast of Captain America: Civil War.
Emily Blunt Up For Captain Marvel
Emily Blunt has been doing press tours for her upcoming movie Into the Woods. In an interview with ScreenCrush this week, they asked Blunt about her desire to play Captain Marvel in the future movie. Blunt has been a popular fan choice for the role and even she wants to play the part. Blunt said, "If it’s an awesome part, it doesn't matter if it’s a Marvel movie or a tiny movie, I’d be up for it." She went on to say that she has not received any calls for the part so we will just have to wait and see.
New Agent Carter Footage
We are just over a month away from the premiere of Marvel's new television series Agent Carter. Marvel is starting to release more clips to see Peggy Carter in action. Check out the two clips below.
Gwyneth Paltrow Wants Civil War Role
Gwyneth Paltrow has been with Marvel since the very beginning. She has been in Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Iron Man 3, and Avengers. As you can see, she has been in every movie that Robert Downey Jr. has been in. It's unknown if she will be in Avengers: Age of Ultron but it's likely she will be in some capacity. It's hard to picture Tony Stark without Pepper Potts, which brings us to Paltrow's desire to be along side Downey again in Captain America: Civil War. She spoke to DishNation this week about the possibility and said, "My fingers are crossed. I would love to be Pepper Potts again at some point in my life."
No Nova in Guardians 2
The once risky property of Guardians of the Galaxy has turned into a huge hit, thanks in part to director James Gunn. Gunn is now working hard on the sequel and has spoken about his desire for more characters in Guardians of the Galaxy 2. One character that everyone wants to see in the movie is Nova. Unfortunately for Nova and fans of the character, he will not be appearing in Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Gunn took to Facebook to confirm this as he responded to a fan question. Gunn said that Nova does not currently serve a purpose to the story, right now.
Maria Hill Could Appear in Civil War
As I was writing this, another rumor popped up saying that Cobie Smulders could return as Maria Hill in Captain America: Civil War. The rumor comes from Spanish sites elmulticine and Cinemax. They both claim that Smulders will in fact return as Maria Hill for the epic Civil War storyline.
