A top - secret , improbably vague throw up call has reportedly been sent out to agencies , looking for an actress who appear to be physically substantial and somewhere between 25 and 35 . While Warner Bros. and the movie ’s production squad is keeping mum about … well , about everything , the reported yakety-yak at some of the agencies is that this casting call is actually for the part of Wonder Woman .
Now , we only have industry scuttlebutt to go on here – and , technically speaking , not even insider diligence scuttlebutt – but Bleeding Cool argues that the secrecy surrounding the casting call mean that the character must be very crucial , and Wonder Woman would fit the eyeshade , most likely in some variety of small role that would set up a spin - off motion-picture show .
Of of course , the more likely interpretation , assuming the actual casting call is even legit , is that the part is actually a scoundrel of some sort . Still , I infer it ’s officially not impossible that this movie will introduce not just the latest incarnation of Batman but also the third member of DC Comics ’ core trinity . But “ not unacceptable ” is as far as I ’m train to go with this one , for now . [ Bleeding Cool ]
Director Alan Taylor explains why British actors like Tom Hiddleston and Christopher Eccleston – who play Loki and Malekith the Accursed , respectively – make such gross villains :
“ I remember it ’s been a well-thought-of professing for hundreds of years in British culture – if you ’re good at it you get knight ! The British are just absolutely bright technicians who can turn it on and turn it off . Working with Emilia Clarke in Game of Thrones , she ’s a young charwoman and she can be laughing with the crew and having a joke but when you say action , she ’s rage and sob and breeding firedrake and you say hack and she finishes her joke . It ’s that point of control . And the Brits always have amazing restraint of the accent mark ; they can do an American emphasis without thrash an eye and Americans will slave away for month and not get it good so there ’s just a expert control which seems to be embedded in the culture . But on the other side , I think Americans think the British as villains because the accent mark ’s just kind of villainous * laughs * . You sound so sophisticated , there must be something evil about you – we ’re still fighting the Revolutionary War . ”

lineage Diamond and In America actor Djimon Hounsou , who is set to play Korath in the Marvel space opera house , discourse what it ’s like exercise on writer - theatre director James Gunn ’s stage set , and whether either he or Gunn have much freedom to exchange the script on - set :
I do n’t really conceive , because it ’s that expensive , it ’s needs less free , as far as the creative freedom . The creative exemption is still very much alive and existent , specially with genre films , because you may do that version however you see primed . It comes from a human beings that we are completely creating , from the background up , and conceptualize , from the group up . So , it can go any kind of mode . Guardians of the Galaxy is a wholly dissimilar creation . It has no place in this world . Even for us , coming to lay and looking at it , you go , “ Wow ! ” Every other day , you feel like you ’re in a unlike part of the galaxy . You do n’t feel like you ’re on planet ground .
Because you ’re creating so much of it , are you mostly on a soundstage , or have you also been shooting out on location?We’re mostly on a soundstage , but some sets were built on the outside . We ’re in a space public . It ’s somewhat cool . It ’s really fun .
He also discusses just why it was so important to him to take on the function and help bring diversity to the Marvel universe :
The deficiency of multifariousness , specifically in genre films and the superheroes our minor grow up look out and emulating , they ca n’t really describe with . When you see the same thing , over and over again , and it seems not to talk of you and your inheritance and your civilization , it leaves you out of this world , a little bit . It give a certain social space with your world . So , it was very shocking when my Logos said that . It blow out of the water me , but at the same time , it was not a surprise . It ’s one of those things that even I have been see for . I ’m appear for a hoagy of my variety , and I ’m look for a shero of my kind . Now , we have Zoe Saldana , who is a shero for minority , and that ’s kind of nice .
What ’s it wish to be a part of the Marvel universe?We like to make the Marvel comics films because they ’re fun . Families can go see them together . They ’re entertaining . They shoot for to pep up , and that is coolheaded . At the same metre , not all of us can identify and connect , needfully . But , Marvel movies are so much fun . Those guy rope are create fun stuff .

Costar J.D. Pardo acknowledges that he was just as irritated as the fan with his character reference Jason ’s constantly changing allegiances , but that ’s done with this time of year :
“ To be dependable , it was a bit frustrating for me , because I wanted to move on from that , ” he allow in . “ It ’s like , man , now Jason has to go here . Now he gets thrash about over here . I want Jason to have some leg , and I wanted him to be his own man . There ’s only so many times you may be betrayed by somebody , and you ’re like ‘ Okay , I get you . I know exactly who you are , and it ’s not gon na happen again . ’ And it ’s worse when it ’s your own parent . But , looking back at it , what I hump about that now , is that now that we get to see him stand up for himself and be his own man , multitude who have stuck through it and watch the 2d season will be like ‘ he ’s this way now because of the first time of year . ’
And to have that back story is great . To show it , is great . Because you ’re going to know exactly why he ’s choose to do what he ’s doing . As far as he ’s concerned , Charlie and Miles betrayed him at the end of it , you get it on ? They close those doors . He does n’t know what bechance on that side of the table , but he just saw those door tight , and they abandoned him and took off . So , he has to be his own man . That ’s really all he has . ”

This was work - for - hire , something all of us be intimate at the start . I have not been contacted by anyone involve . I would be entranced to be contacted by anyone involve 😉 I wish FOX and DC Entertainment success with the show . ”

Erstwhile Eureka star Colin Ferguson and series superstar Emily Rose reveal what to carry from Ferguson ’s character William , a orphic stranger whose agenda regard Rose ’s persona Audrey Parker :
Ferguson : We are go to find that history about who William is and what their family relationship was . How much chronicle we ca n’t really say , although I reckon I ca n’t say that it ’s not going to be left completely up in the air . As the time of year wear on — that ’s not free — as the season get on , that ’s the right Good Book , you find out sort of the problem and forte of their family relationship and you observe out if it ’s going to be an addition or deduction to the town . So that stuff definitely dally out . But I intend there are bigger questions , you know , up in the air the right way now with , you know , is it Lexie or Audrey , and then what will materialise with all that . So my part plays out for certain , but I guess that ’s about all I can say . What do you conceive , Em ?
Rose : Yes , I think that ’s really good . I think that , you bang , when you watch Haven , you ’re not necessarily completely in the detail of panorama of Audrey , but that is a orotund part of the point of vista I recollect , in my legal opinion , and obviously because I ’m run Audrey . But I palpate like , you know , for the first morsel of it , there is a bit of a murkiness fence in William . Who is he ? What is their connexion ? Why is he so intimate with her ? All these things . And , you sleep with , leaving the interview question in that way , it really puts them in on Audrey ’s or Lexie ’s , you know , mindset about who is this somebody just take the air into my living and shouting off all this stuff and nonsense about me . And yes , I think of what their account is , that is the cool part , if there is any . And Colin does such a great business of keeping that veiled for a time and then generate at the end there . So I think that ’s all I can say . That ’s not as articulate as Colin ’s was , but , yes …
Ferguson : But we ’ve had a really fun time dally into it . I mean it ’s been – they ’ve done a really good business of write both side of that equation , so that we – I mean you genuinely do n’t know , hopefully , you know , that like , gosh , is he nice but just a picayune off , or is he off and pretending to be squeamish ? And like I ’m really proud of with cast , sensational cast .
Ferguson also teases a scene he and Rose filmed :
Well , for indisputable , without reveal , yes , we did a view – I really enjoyed a fit that we did , it claim billet in a hospital , I can say that . And I think that was a fun one for me because I really think that they were go to write him with a lot more humor , you know , and he – when he was being skillful or not dainty , it was funny both ways . And I really appreciate that they went that way with him because I so enjoy doing that sorting of poppycock . So that was a great eye - untier for me , I enjoyed it .
