    I'll be curious to see if he gets to cast many hero roles, or if they're pretty much all established for him. Wasp seems like the only other female Avenger we could count on, but you'd think the guy doing the Ant Man movie would get to say who he wants for Hank and Jan.


Is the Ant-Man movie still going ahead? I wish Bill Nye was young enough to play Hank, that'd be awesome.

On a more serious note, I imagine that most of the heroes will already be cast, but Whedon will get some input on the villains. I hope they find a way to work in Jarvis, although that could be tough since Tony named his computer system Jarvis. Could still be done though.

    And Serenity was indeed actiony enough to make me think he could do a good job. I'm not sure it was "big" enough to remove all doubts, however. Still, usually studios can rely on solid second unit directors for action if necessary.


One point I saw in an article is they might save some money going with Whedon over another director but still get the fan base support, which is true. Probably not a lot of money, since Whedon is a pretty big name, but less proven on this type of film. While my initial choice for director might have been Jon Favreau, I'm confident with Whedon.

On the superhero film topic, I wouldn't mind seeing Kevin Smith direct a Green Arrow film. He had a good feel for Ollie on his tenure writing the book.
