It was recently reported that Alice Eve, Diane Kruger and Rosamund Pike have auditioned for a role in the upcoming “Superman” reboot. It was confirmed that they were testing for a part that was not Lois Lane.
LatinoReview has now learned from a very reliable source that Lois Lane will still be in the film and that the character that the three actresses are vying for is Kryptonian villainess Ursa. The character has already appeared in both “Superman: The Movie” and “Superman II,” played by British actress Sarah Douglas. She was part of a group of three members, lead by General Zod.
This news may confirm earlier rumors that Zod will be the main villain in the film, despite the fact that about four months ago director Zack Snyder said that Zod will not appear in the reboot. But that was four month ago and things may have changed. (Source)
Adrien Brody, Jonathan Rhys Meyers And Alice Eve Up For Roles In Fantastic Four Reboot? Last we heard about the Fantastic Four reboot, it had received the title Fantastic Four Reborn, and is was the first bit of news since the project was announced more than a year ago. As it turns out, that title is actually false and now casting considerations have begun.
ScreenRant is reporting that the production is looking at either Adrien Brody or Jonathan Rhys Meyers for the role of Mr. Fantastic and a title has not yet been determined, according to an unnamed source. There have also been rumors stirred up that Alice Eve could be in the running for the role of Sue Storm, according to Comic Book Movie. Whoever is selected for the roles, they will be replacing Ioan Gruffudd and Jessica Alba as the couple at the head of the team.
From an acting standpoint, Brody, Meyers and Eve are all upgrades from the previous two films and do make sense. As for the authenticity of the rumor, some parts do make sense. Predators wasn’t the most successful movie at the box office this summer but it more than doubled its budget internationally and Fox was more than happy with that, which gives Brody legs for the project. As for Eve, her name came up in conversation when discussing her reasoning for dropping out of X-Men: First Class and using it as proof that she was still on good terms with the studio. Regardless of who joins the cast of the reboot, there is an important thing to realize: the bar isn’t exactly unreachable. (Source)
This hasn’t been confirmed yet, but sources are saying Alice is attached to star in the film, “Blonde” as Bethan. “Blonde” is comedy scheduled for a 2011 release. Caradog W. James wrote and will direct the film, with Julie Baines and Martin Paul-Hus producing. More details to come as they are released.
Alice Eve is in negotiations to play Emma Frost in “X-Men: First Class,” Fox’s relaunch of the Marvel Comics-based franchise being directed by Matthew Vaughn. Eve would join Michael Fassbender as Magneto and James McAvoy as Professor X in the story that focuses on Marvel’s superpowered team X-Men in a younger incarnation than the previous trilogy.
In comics lore, Frost was originally a villain called the White Queen who eventually became a member of X-Men, then a teacher at Xavier’s School of Gifted Students. She has telepathic powers and as the White Queen wore scantily clad costumes. (Source)
Things are looking a little brighter for Alice to star in the upcoming movie, “The Avengers.” Malin Akerman, who was also named as one of the actresses in the running for the part was unaware:
“I saw that [on the internet] and I copied and pasted it to my agent,” Åkerman told me last night at the Maui Film Festival screening of happythankyoupleasemore, an indie ensemble dramedy in which she plays a woman living with alopecia (yes, she shaved her eyebrows for the part). “He was like, ‘Where did you get this?’ He called the studio and it was just a made-up rumor unfortunately.”
Not that Åkerman wouldn’t welcome the idea of being considered for a role in the superhero flick, which is being directed by Joss Whedon. “Maybe it’ll influence the studio to go ahead and be like, ‘Hey, how about Malin Åkerman for the part?’” she laughed. “But for now, it’s just a rumor. I don’t know how it started.”
Take this with a HUGE pinch of salt. Avengersnews.com isn’t always the most reliable source of info at the moment. Anyway, they claim to have a source that says…
We now have received final word that Ms. Eve has signed a deal with the company this past week for an undisclosed character in an undisclosed film much like a deal signed earlier this year by Kevin Pennington. Both actors are in final negotiations on character choices. The final candidates for both actors are:
Alice Eve: Sharon Carter, Carol Danvers, Enchantress and Shanna.
Kevin Pennington: Daniel Rand, Rick Jones, Robert Reynolds and Ka-Zar.
They go on to say..
It’s likely that we could see them both (as 3 of the 4 characters) first in The Avengers, or in the Savage Land film Marvel is planning. Alice could also be used in Thor 2 as the Enchantress and Kevin could also be used as Daniel Rand in the Iron Fist film. Please do not take the above list as characters Marvel is looking to fill roles for in The Avengers.
Alice Eve has not been confirmed by any other source as even being in talks, let alone having signed anything. Pennington has at least some ties to the film. So MAYBE this is all legit. Confirmation once it’s announced. (Source)
This hasn’t been confirmed yet, but sources are saying Alice is attached to star alongside David Tennant and Kelly McDonald in the film, “The Decoy Bride”. “The Decoy Bride” is dramatic-comedy scheduled for a 2011 release.
Synopsis: When the world’s media descend on the remote Scottish island where a Hollywood actress is attempting to get married, a local girl is hired as a decoy bride to put the paparazzi off the scent.
