If Samuel L. Jackson's one-eyed, leather-wearing, superhero-wrangling Nick Fury has a boss, then someone truly formidable has to play that boss.
Luckily, Captain America: The Winter Soldier now has Robert Redford, so it's safe to say that the S.H.I.E.L.D. brass will be believably charismatic and authoritative.
Hey everybody, we've got a bumper crop of goodies from Marvel Studios' Phase 2.
These run from a featurette snippet focused on the first post-The Avengers effort, Iron Man 3, to a quartet of revealing pieces of concept art, and news on where The Avengers will actually shoot.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier is becoming more and more crowded all the time.
The latest addition to one of Marvel Studios' four sequels in Phase 2 is a familiar, if not especially popular Marvel character: Batroc the Leaper, a French highkicker who will apparently be brought to life by Georges St-Pierre.
Whoa.
No less a cinematic luminary than Robert Redford is in negotiations to join Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
It's not all that unusual for Tilda Winton to look like she's a model from some strange future.
In a first look image of Swinton in Snowpiercer, that's almost exactly the case. She's probably not playing a model, but with her shaved head, androgynous beauty, and outlandish costume, Swinton's appearance makes it clear that Snowpiercer is thoroughly sci-fi.
Despite previous word to the contrary from the actress herself, it sounds as though Hayley Atwell may, uh, do fondue with Captain America: The Winter Soldier after all.
For months, Marvel has been looking for an actress to portray Cap's as-yet unknown love interest in next year's Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Many a fine young actress has her name associated with the part, but it turns out that the role has gone to none of the contenders previously mentioned.
Instead, Emily VanCamp has been selected by directors Joe and Anthony Russo to play against Chris Evans as Steve Rogers, the Avenger out of time.
No less a source than Cobie Smulders – S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Maria Hill – is sharing some inside information on next year's Captain America: The Winter Soldier and the possibility that we'll see the character in action on the S.H.I.E.L.D. television series.
Even though he's living as a man out of time in the 21st Century, Steve Rogers can still hang out with his old war buddies and non-buddies in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Among the non-buddies to make a return, we now know, is Arnim Zola, the HYDRA scientist played by Toby Jones in Captain America: The Avenger.
Anthony Mackie is a frequent MVP, the kind of actor who is good even when the movie around him isn't. That's solid news for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, since the 8 Mile, The Hurt Locker, and Gangster Squad actor is set to play Sam Wilson, also known as The Falcon, in next year's sequel.
