Stellan Skarsgard To Be In The Avengers

published: 2011-03-04 16:45:54 Author: Eric Eisenberg
I've always found Stellan Skarsgård's involvement in Kenneth Branagh's Thor to be a bit funny. After all, his son, Alex, who is a mainstay on HBO's True Blood, was very much in the running for the title role before Chris Hemsworth landed the part. Now it turns out that not only will Stellan be playing a role in the solo superhero film, but he will be a part of Joss Whedon's Avengers as well. Expressen (via Bleeding Cool) has learned that Skarsgard's character in Thor will be included in the superhero team-up movie due out next year. The actor plays a character named Professor Andrews, and while very little is known about his character, he is a scientist that works in New Mexico along with Natalie Portman and Kat Dennings' characters. As of now, the Avengers crossover cast members include Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man; Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk; Chris Hemsworth as Thor; Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America; Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow; Clark Gregg as Agent Coulson; and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury (Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye will also count should his rumored cameo in Thor turn out to be real).

This now puts a lot of question marks around Skargard's character. What larger role does he play in the film? Is he, per chance a member of S.H.I.E.L.D? Guess we'll just have to wait until May 6 to find out.

Hal Jordan Looks Worried About His New Ring In Two New Green Lantern Stills

published: 2011-03-04 15:42:14 Author: Eric Eisenberg

 If feels as though it's been forever since we last heard anything from Martin Campbell's The Green Lantern, and, in a way, that's true. Set to be released in June, the last image for the film came out all the way back in mid-January which feels like years ago in the middle of the Hollywood hype machine. Is it possible that they're waiting until they have the suit looking better before showing off the character again? These new stills would suggest yes, as neither one of them has Ryan Reynolds decked out as a green space ranger.

French website MarveDC-Universe.com has posted two fresh, never before stills from the film. The first sees Hal Jordan, played by Reynolds, talking with his friend and fellow pilot Carol Ferris (Blake Lively) and the other features Hal looking worried as he is about to put on his power ring. You can also get a glimpse at the Green Lantern battery in the second shot.

Check out the new stills below and head over to MarveDC-Universe.com to see them full-size.

Zooey Deschanel Covers 'Lucky' Magazine April 2011

Zooey Deschanel is all smiles on the cover of Lucky magazine’s April 2011 issue, on newsstands March 8!
Here is what the 31-year-old Your Highness actress had to share with the mag:
On the medieval costumes from Your Highness: “I had so many amazing costumes in the movie. They weren’t things I would normally wear. They were basically medieval gowns. It was really fun dressing up like I was going to a Renaissance fair for three months.”
On her personal style: “I would say girly, flirtatious, colorful.” She pauses mulling this over for a minute. “Feminine, maybe, and soft. But yeah, definitely colorful.”
On dressing up as a child: “I wanted to be really girly… like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. I’m still the same way.”
